The Quest for a Place to Dream

Banushi reflects on her quest for a place to dream. She states that there is no bigger threat to human dignity than corrupt policymaking. The US promised one year ago that it will tackle this social evil through its Strategy on Countering Corruption (SCC). It committed to increasing foreign assistance, boosting anti-money laundering apparatuses, and holding corrupt actors accountable in "promoting prosperity and security for people around the world." But its promise seems to have fallen inside the same abyss where the people it wants to save stand.
