Radio interview on Western Sahara and Aminatou Haidar

I wanted to share this radio interview I did regarding the latest on the human rights situation in Western Sahara. In this piece, I speak about Aminatou Haidar, the "Sahrawi Gandhi," and the courage she demonstrated while she was on the hunger strike that nearly killed her.

Today Aminatou and I had a very joyous reunion in New York, as you can see! I'm happy to report that she's in good health and is continuing her tireless work on behalf of the dignity of the Western Saharan people.

UPDATE 4/14/10
Here's my latest piece on Huffington Post regarding the UN Security Council's upcoming discussions on the peacekeeping mission in Western Sahara.
