Tribes and Tribulation

ANDREW BUSTAMANTE
About this episode

We live in a civilized world... except in those places where society is ruled by tribal law. In Pakistan, much of the culture is based in tribal history going back thousands of years. In this episode, Andrew shares a tribal story from Pakistan and looks at how the lessons of that story are still relevant in our civilized society today. Human beings are tribal and we can either learn from our history or repeat it.
