How is the pandemic opening the way for state violence or discrimination within states? And how do these situations compare with the situations in previous disasters? Join us in this discussion with Malka Older, who is a writer, aid worker, and academic, and Vivian Choi, who is an assistant professor of Anthropology and Sociology at St. Olaf College to learn more about how immigrants and migrant workers are being treated, the anti-Muslim sentiments in Sri Lanka, and what international human rights watchers should and should not do.
