You remember Den Van Boo?

No!

The same thing happened in Algeria, in Africa.

They didn't have anything but a rank.

The French had all these highly mechanized instruments of warfare, but they put some guerrilla action on.

Hello and welcome to guerrilla history, the podcast that acts as a reconnaissance report of global proletarian history and aims to use the lessons of history to analyze the present.

I'm one of your co-hosts,

Henry Huckermacki, joined as usual by my two co-hosts, Professor Adnan Hussein, historian and director of the School of Religion at Queen's University in Ontario, Canada. Hello, Adnan. How are

you doing today? I'm doing great. It's wonderful to be with you, Henry. How's the weather in Canada right now?

Still moderate, you know.

Winter has not yet come, but it will.

Ah, well, I just was asking because we've got snow today.

And also joined by my other usual co-host, Brett O'Shea, host of Revolutionary Left Radio and co-host of the Red Menace podcast. Hello, Brett. Have the snowflakes started falling in Nebraska yet? Not yet. Just leaves so far. I'm doing okay overall. The Packers lost last night, so that was terrible. But I had a good workout today. We're going to talk about fascism throughout this episode. Everybody who opposes fascism should work out and stay fit because things are getting little crazy, but I'm doing well. I'm doing well. It's a great, great way to introduce what we're going to be talking about. And we are going to be talking about, honestly, one of my favorite guests that we have on the show. This will be his third time coming on the show. It's the inimitable professor Gerald Horn, who of course is John Jay and Rebecca Moore's chair of history and African American studies at the University of Houston.

We had him on to talk about the counter-revolution of 1776.

It was one of our very early episodes of the show.

So if you haven't listened to that episode, I highly recommend you go back to do so. And he also joined us for our one-year anniversary live stream that we did about a year

ago, just under a year ago at this point. And during that episode, we were talking about an

upcoming book, at the time, an upcoming book that Professor Horn was working on,

which is going to be the topic of this episode, because it's every time you talk to Professor

Horn, he's got two or three more books that have come out in the interim. So we're going to

be talking about the counter-revolution of 1836, Texas slavery, and Jim Crow and the roots of

U.S. fascism.
