How Has America Changed?: Yo-Yo Ma / Cellist

The US presidential election and the chaotic aftermath have shown how deeply divided the country has been. And it looks like it will take a long time to fill the ditch. Yo-Yo Ma was born in France and immigrated to the U.S. in his childhood. He has played for successive presidents and seen the transition in the country. Our host, Del Irani, asked Yo-Yo Ma how he sees America. How can he find hope in the U.S.? And what role music can play.
