BBC World Service - Boston Calling, Face-to-Face

His parents were refugees. He’s a Trump advisor. Sebastian Gorka talks US-Russia relations

Before he became an advisor to President Trump, Sebastian Gorka was an editor at the far-right website Breitbart News. He discusses US relations with Russia. Plus, we speak to a journalist who faced death threats after writing an article critical of Trump. 

Then, an American sheriff wants to help build a border wall, using the labour of inmates in Massachusetts. In New York City, Yemeni shop owners take to the streets. An historian uncovers the Arab origins of the Statue of Liberty. And a music producer who helped create the term “world music” looks back on the genre’s 30 years.
