Khan Academy Founder Sal Khan on Wealth Inequality

Sal Khan only wanted to help his cousin with her math when he started posting educational videos online. Not too long after that, he began the Khan Academy. 11 years later, it has some 5 million subscribers on YouTube and reaches across the globe. The non-profit’s goal is to give a free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere. Khan sat down with Walter to talk about how he hopes to achieve it.
