Summary

In this episode of Guerrilla History, we are joined by returning guest Michael Fox (whom you may remember from our episode The Rise of Fascism, Bolsonaro, & the Brazilian Elections) to discuss his excellent new series Under the Shadow, a collaboration between The Real News Network and NACLA which examines the lasting impacts of American imperialism on Latin America.  This is a fantastic conversation, and one which we hope to follow up with Michael on as his project continues for years to come!

Michael Fox is a Brazil-based journalist, contributor to The World, former Editor of NACLA, and the host of the podcast series Under the Shadow and  Brazil on Fire, both collaborations between NACLA and The Real News Network. Michael can be followed on Twitter @mfox_us, you can support his project on his patreon and follow his band Monte Perdido (who will be releasing an album soon!).
