From NPR.
Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last year for her work to promote democracy in her country.
But her work has also carried a steep personal price. Machado has endured years of death threats and harassment from political opponents in Venezuela. She had to go into hiding for her own security, and send her children to live abroad.
All Things Considered host Mary Louise Kelly asks Machado about the burden her family has had to carry because of Machado’s political career.
You can hear Maria Corina Machado talk about her plans for democracy in Venezuela, her relationship with President Donald Trump, and about plans for Machado’s return to the country on our Youtube channel.
