SUNY Oneonta professor Rob Compton has studied the African country of Zimbabwe for more than 20 years. During that time, for former British colony known as Rhodesia has gone from the "Breadbasket of Africa" in the 20th century to one of the world's poorest economies in the 21st century. It's an amazing story of white colonialism, failed land reform and now hyper inflation. Dr. Compton is a frequent visitor to this land once known for its gold mines.
