Why do disasters happen? Why are they not ‘natural disasters’? Join Ilan Kelman who explains why those with power and resources make choices, usually forcing vulnerability onto others which then hurts themselves, so that disasters happen. This includes the current pandemic and many more from around the world including earthquakes and weather.
