In this episode, Aidan attends a protest at the South Carolina Statehouse organized to bring attention to the military coup in Burma (also known as Myanmar). The coup, which took place on February 1, 2021, sparked global outcry against the military regime and against the international community for the lack of resistance. In Columbia, a group of people, mostly resettled refugees from Burma, hold protests some Sunday afternoons to call attention to the military's atrocities against its own citizens.
