Michaela Rong, an expert on Rwanda and Congo, and Stuart Reid, author of "The Lumumba Plot," dive deep into the ongoing turmoil in the Democratic Republic of Congo. They discuss the devastating impact of the M23 rebel group’s takeover of Goma and unravel the tangled web of international interests, especially U.S. complicity. Rong and Reid shed light on the CIA’s hidden role in Congo's history, the assassinated leader Patrice Lumumba's tumultuous path to independence, and the lasting scars of colonial machinations.
