PRI's The World: 12/16/2015

The GOP candidates only used the word "fear" once in their debate last night, and yet the feeling that America is under serious threat right now seemed palpable. We get an Afghan viewpoint on the current political climate in the United States from an Afghan TV personality who's currently studying here in the US. Also, Marco Werman and our team are still in Kenya, bringing us stories about women whose business is their own. Today, we hear about a group of Maasai women who are growing aloe for use in LUSH cosmetics. Plus, the striking similarities between Star Wars and a French graphic novel from the 1970s.
