China Takes Over the (Art) World

Studio 360

The corridors are so long, you may want to bring extra shoes. China’s newly-expanded National Museum is now the world’s largest museum — what does it say about the country’s cultural ambitions? And we’ll meet rising pop star Marsha Ambrosius. Her R&B sound is smooth and sexy, but her songs are sometimes caustic, and she’s upsetting the status quo with a very personal video about a taboo subject.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
