Amanpour: Susan Lund, Samantha Stark, John Allen and Abigail Disney

Economist Susan Lund says it was easier to shut down the economy in 2020 than to restart it in 2021. She joins Bianna Golodryga, standing in for Christiane Amanpour, to discuss the bumpy road ahead as the economy reboots. Then Samantha Stark, director of "Framing Britney Spears," reflects on the popstar's statement to court today regarding the conservatorship she's been living under since 2008. President Joe Biden is a devout Catholic and the first Catholic president in nearly 60 years. But conservative Catholic bishops are pushing a plan to take away his right, and those of other Catholic politicians, to receive Communion, due to his support of abortion rights. Senior Vatican Analyst and author John Allen explains. Then philanthropist, filmmaker and heir to the Disney family fortune Abigail Disney speaks to our Hari Sreenivasan about the dangerous power of intergenerational wealth and why she’s decided to give away more than $70 million over the last 40 years.
