S2023 E25 Seeing Red: Running with the Bulls
本集简介

CNN Senior National Correspondent David Culver reports a nail-biting account of the world-renowned and controversial running of the bulls from the streets of Pamplona, Spain.

Culver follows a group of runners in the weeks and days leading up to the annual running of the bulls at the San Fermín Festival in Pamplona, a tradition held since 1591. Since record-keeping began in 1910, 16 people have died participating in Pamplona, and the most recent bull run fatality occurred just last week in Valencia, Spain. Culver embeds with the group as they prepare for the perilous event, guided by experienced runners who have entered hundreds of bull runs and even been gored. As the day of the run approaches, Culver decides to suit up in the traditional white garb and red scarf and try it out himself – well aware of the dangers but hoping to understand the thrill some find.

"I was well aware of the dangers – and what some might consider to be the insanity – of running with the bulls," said Culver. "But having met folks so deeply passionate about and protective of this controversial tradition, I wanted to join for one of the eight bull runs, if only to try to better understand the thrill they speak of." Culver added, "Turns out, one run was enough for me!"

Culver also investigates the highly divisive activity of bullfighting, the ritual killing of the bulls following the morning's run. Bullfighting is condemned by animal rights groups and banned in many countries. Still, the tradition persists throughout Spain, with many there considering it an integral part of their heritage and culture.

Going Home: The War in Sudan

CNN Chief International Investigative Correspondent Nima Elbagir reports a deeply personal dispatch from her home country Sudan.

Millions of people have fled the country as stories of brutal war crimes leak from the capital. Still, Elbagir was determined to shed light on these atrocities and uncover how the people of Sudan are coping. From a refugee camp near the southern border where nearly 2.8 million people have fled the war, she travels north into war-torn Sudan, making a trek that very few Western media organizations have been allowed to make. Her destination is the capital city of Khartoum, one of two major areas where the fighting is concentrated and where her family home is located. But the journey will not be easy – she must circumnavigate dangerous checkpoints to avoid confrontation with paramilitary groups who do not want her in Sudan.

"To report on my own country, to feel so many of the wounds of those we interviewed on such a visceral level, and to know that the outcome of the war and the consequences of our reporting would impact not only my life but the lives of the people I love, was only possible because so many Sudanese were so generous in allowing us in," said Elbagir. "Whether it's in Sudan or Ukraine or any other seemingly endless conflict, too many of us know what it feels like to wake up not knowing if there will even be a home for us to go back to, with the heartbreak of knowing home is no longer a haven. I hope the audience will walk away feeling like we gave them a glimpse into that reality."

Elbagir uncovers first-person accounts from survivors and eyewitnesses of horrific war crimes, including ethnic cleansing and sex slavery. She also uncovers critical information about ongoing foreign influences funding and supporting the war.
