"Warlord" Exhibition
Smith-Stewart
This event has ended.
Warlords are powerful and dangerous figures, perpetuating regional instability for profit. Depending on whom you ask, they are national heroes, fighting for their countries’ cause, or mass murdering gangsters out to kill and make millions. In the early 1990s, they appeared in the
Balkans and later in Chechnya and continue to flourish today in, most prominently, Afghanistan and across Africa -- Somalia, Nigeria, Niger, Sudan.
