Pascale Harter presents personal reflections, impressions and analysis from reporters and writers around the world. In this edition, two tales harking back to times past. David Stern's on the trail of Lee Harvey Oswald in Minsk, meeting the Belarusians who have only positive memories of the man who shot JFK. Again and again, he meets people who can't understand how the "good guy" they remember from Oswald's brief stay in the USSR during the 1950s later turned assassin. Then it's back to the style and the steps of the 1940s, as Nina Lakhani takes in the moves, dress code and joy of danzon, a Cuban dance form that's still thriving in Mexico City.
