Ghosts of the Mexican Revolution (Pod Damn and Black Banner Collab)
Added 2020-05-08 22:20:49 +0000 UTCBlack Banner Magic, Jake from Pod Damn America, and Breht from Revolutionary Left Radio hit the beats of the Mexican Revolution. Going over Spain's social and religious colonization of the indigenous peoples that gave rise to the independence movement, the peasant farmers that rose up to lead the revolution to take back the land, and one spooky, weird rich kid that ended up president for a while.
