Bonus: Rep. Ro Khanna on what America owes India

On a special bonus Worldly, Zack interviews Rep. Ro Khanna — the vice-chair of the House’s India Caucus — on the covid crisis in that country. They talk about how things got so bad in India and what it says about the state of India’s political institutions and democracy. Then they talk about the US response, where Rep. Khanna gives an inside view of how the Biden administration decided to increase its commitment to India — and makes the case for doing even more. They also reference a whole lot of political philosophy. References: Vox's Kelsey Piper wrote a piece about vaccine patents Amartya Sen's book Development as Freedom Learn more about your ad choices.
