Africa Update: Madagascar's President Quits
After weeks of political tension, Madagascar's president steps down, dissolves the government, and hands power to the military.

On the final "Africa Update," Tony Cox speaks with Emira Woods — co-director of Foreign Policy in Focus at the Institute for Policy Studies — and Bill Fletcher, a Senior Scholar with the Institute for Policy Studies and former President of TransAfrica Forum.
