Airdate: 2015-Nov-27

Episode summary:

The International Criminal Court in The Hague is a rare international institution because it's headed by a woman. The ICC's critics say it is slow and expensive. It's also controversial because so far all its cases have come from Africa. The ICC's prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, is a lawyer from Gambia. Zeinab Badawi talks to her about justice, gender, race and leading an institution that is rarely out of the news.
