Unpacking passport privilege

It’s much easier to act on your wanderlust if you hold a U.S. passport. Shahnaz Habib is a writer and translator who consults for the United Nations. She joins host Krys Boyd to talk about the privilege of who gets to travel and who doesn’t, and about how the Western-centric view of exploring the world differs from how other people across the globe look at leisure travel. Her book is “Airplane Mode: An Irreverent History of Travel.”
