A human-caused humanitarian crisis. A hundred thousand people in South Sudan are facing starvation -- and officials with the World Food Programme say the famine is "man-made".
Feb. 20: Also, the war over the war on drugs. Last summer, we spoke with a senator in the Philippines who was investigating President Duterte's violent drug crackdown. This weekend, she was charged with corruption.
A Texas lawyer says women are at risk after a client from Mexico asked an El Paso court for help with an abusive partner only to be picked up herself by Immigration officials.

He contained multitudes. Dave and Morley, their many friends and neighbours, and Galway the cat -- after more than two decades, their stories have come to an end, with the death of the legendary CBC storyteller, Stuart McLean.
