About this listen

In this news brief, Josh examines Hurricane Melissa, the strongest hurricane in Jamaican history, which made landfall in Jamaica, Haiti, and Cuba last week. While offering details on the detrimental impacts of the hurricane, Josh also magnifies this hurricane as a case study of how natural disasters highlight unequal mobilities in our world and provokes thought surrounding the lack of international protection for climate migrants.
