  • Summary

  • For this episode, Red is joined by Canadian author Erum Shazia Hasan, whose compelling debut novel, "We Meant Well," explores the complex moral and emotional landscape of international aid work.

    Set in an unnamed post-colonial failed state, the book grapples with timely questions about what it means to be charitable, who deserves what, and who gets the power to decide.

    With her background as a Sustainable Development Consultant for various UN agencies, it’s a world that Erum is well qualified to discuss. Join Red and Erum as they explore the contradictions and consequences of Western intervention in the developing world.
