24:40Now PlayingWe remember the life and legacy of Dr. Paul Farmer, a public health icon who spent decades building community health networks helping millions of poor people in Haiti, Rwanda, Sierra Leone and beyond. He died unexpectedly Monday at the age of 62. We feature Farmer's past interviews with Democracy Now! and speak with his longtime colleague, Dr. Joia Mukherjee. Farmer leaves behind a remarkable legacy and an "enormous community of people that he brought to this large table that is now global health," says Mukherjee, chief medical officer for Partners In Health, where she worked with Farmer for 23 years.
