Is inequality undermining US democracy?



We ask if the US inequality gap is fuelling anti-establishment sentiment, and talk to Zimbabwe's former VP Joice Mujuru.


In this week's UpFront, Mehdi Hasan talks to former Zimbabwe Vice President Joice Mujuru about serving in President Robert Mugabe's government, which has been accused of mass killings and other human rights violations.
In the Reality Check, we look into the US Department of Defence's controversial School of the Americas, where graduates include Manuel Noriega, the members of the Zetas cartel, and Efrain Rios Montt.
And in the Arena, we debate whether financial inequality drives political power into the hands of the wealthy and whether it can ever be considered a good thing.
