Turning TidesTurning TidesTurning Tides: Paraguayan War: One Vast Tomb, 1867 - 1870: Episode 2Turning Tides: Paraguayan War will discuss the War of the Triple Alliance, or López's War, as well as the effects of the war on South America and the rest of the world.

A eleição de 1952 para o Clube Militar foi o pontapé para implementar um processo de expurgo da dissidência ideológica dentro das Forças Armadas. Estava em curso o ‘novo profissionalismo’, orientado pela Doutrina de Segurança Nacional, dirigido pelo Estado Maior e executado pela Escola Superior de Guerra e outros órgãos. O novo profissionalismo enseja a criação cuidadosa de um sistema de repressão que em 1964 acumulava uma década de expertise no uso da violência extralegal contra militares e que será amplamente utilizada contra os civis durante a Ditadura Militar. 2022-07-1931 minHave You Seen This?Have You Seen This?134 - RavenousJen and Tim take a bite out of cult cannibal Western flick Ravenous, with the help of Bitter Karella!“The Windigo is sick because it’s cut off from its roots. It’s a ghost with a heart of ice. It eats everything in sight. Its hunger knows no bounds. When there is nothing left to eat, it starves to death. When it sees something, it wants to own it. No one else can have anything. This illness feeds on a spiritual void.

We break these stories down, and discuss how this form of appropriation sidesteps the very real history of colonialism, to the horrors of Canadian residential schools to Kit Carson’s brutal attempt at ethnic cleansing in the American Southwest.Bonus Material...2021-12-021h 15Dispatch 7: global trends on all seven continentsDispatch 7: global trends on all seven continentsWerewolves of North America | Ep. 24Here are some key sources on the loup-garou.

I strongly dislike conspiracy theories. At the same time, sometimes there are real conspiracies. In this case, we don’t have enough evidence to judge whether the allegations are true, even though one person confessed. So was this a horrible political crime?
