Tavis Smiley Show

Amy Liu, of the Brookings Institution, discusses the new report on the
status of rebuilding New Orleans. Nigerian poet and novelist Chris Abani
talks about his activism. 

Bio: 
Poet and novelist Chris Abani teaches in Antioch University’s MFA Program
and at the University of California-Riverside. As a teen, he was imprisoned
in his native Nigeria when his debut novel was labeled a national security
threat. After his release, Abani participated in a guerrilla theater group.
His activism led to more arrests and a death sentence. He eventually chose
exile, settling first in the UK and then in California. Abani’s latest work
is a novella, Becoming Abigail.
