Happy #yalda

In November 1969 news broke of a massacre of Vietnamese civilians by US troops in the village of My Lai in the So Tonh district of Kwang Nai in the South Central coast region of Vietnam. The killings themselves had taken place more than a year earlier on the 16th March 1968. It’s difficult to know how many deaths there were – the US army puts the figure at 347, and there are estimates of around 500. Marshall Poe joins from the New Books Network to discuss the build up, the massacre itself and the events of that day, the cover up, and we try to answer why it happened. #vietnamwar #mylai Link: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4BT60j42v0dzqyPhD6ubu6?si=7b755bc835ab45c8

In the early 1930s, a new movement threatened to smash the established ruling party, the Conservatives, as well as the Labour party. Led by a charismatic leader, capable of brilliant oration, the British Union of Fascists attracted many to their cause, most notably aristocrats and even royalty. Joining our editor today is Alec Marsh , journalist and author of Rule Britannia, along with historian of the period Martin Pugh, author of Hurrah for the Blackshirts. They discuss it's causes, the great counter-factual of whether they could have take control, and whether there are modern day fascists around. #Fascists #britishfascists #1930s Link: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4PKLA3NPTNhpqyy4wc4KpR?si=2ef54826c8c7499f
