Summary

John Kerry, former U.S. Secretary of State, joins Christiane Amanpour in London to discuss these unprecedented times in U.S. politics, as the impeachment of President Trump looms. He also delves into the climate crisis and how we need both government and private business to get on board if we are to solve it any time soon. Bobby Jindal, the former Louisiana Governor, gives his take on the Republican stance on impeachment. Ferkat Jawdat, Uyghur activist, talks about why the Chinese government's treatment of their minority Muslim Uyghur population is akin to 'culture identity genocide.' He speaks candidly about his mother who was imprisoned for years in a so-called re-education camp. Our Hari Sreenivasan sits down with Steven W. Thrasher, Daniel Renberg Chair at Northwestern University, to talk about the HIV/AIDS crisis in the U.S. and why it is gay and black men that are most at risk.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
