Today we’re talking to Siddharth Kara, expert on modern-day slavery and author of “Cobalt Red: How the Blood of the Congo Powers Our Lives.” We discuss the human rights abuses behind the Congo’s cobalt mining operation; the societal conditions that the people of the Congo trudge through to provide for their families; and why solving this problem starts with the leaders at the top of the supply chain. All of this right here, right now, on the Modern CTO Podcast! Check out more of Siddharth and his book here.
