Summary
In this episode of Guerrilla History, we bring back the official unofficial fourth member of the hosting panel, Alexander Aviña! Here we discuss Alex's freshly released article at Foreign Exchanges titled A Future of Walls or Liberation, which examines some of the role and relationships between "Israel" and the countries and governments in Latin America. This is a really interesting piece of the Zioimperialist story, and one which is frankly very under-discussed. Tune in, learn something, and share with others who you think would also benefit from hearing this history!
Alexander Aviña is associate professor of Latin American history at Arizona State University and author of Specters of Revolution: Peasant Guerrillas in the Cold War Mexican Countryside. Alex's website is available at alexanderavina.com, and he can be followed on twitter @Alexander_Avina
