Imagine living in a country with the world’s largest bauxite reserves, yet over half the population lives below the poverty line. Welcome to Guinea, a nation rich in resources but impoverished by exploitation.
In this eye-opening episode, we expose how corporations like Alcoa, Rio Tinto, and others have reaped $400 billion from Guinea’s bauxite while leaving the nation with a mere $5 billion—and a GDP ranking of 182 out of 195. We’ll dive into the story of NANKO Shipping, a Guinean company fighting for its right to participate in the wealth of its own land, and explore how global corporations manipulate agreements to maintain control.
But the story doesn’t stop there. We’ll also uncover the hidden connections between the aluminum industry and alarming health concerns, from Alzheimer’s disease to vaccine controversies. Hear from experts like Dr. Casdorph and Dr. Morton Walker as they reveal the ties between aluminum and neurological damage—and the staggering corporate efforts to keep these truths buried.
What’s really going on in Guinea? Why does this exploitation matter to all of us? And how can nations reclaim their resources and health from multinational greed?
