Tidewater Tales: Franco & The Spanish Civil War
Manage episode 348049471 series 3419992
This evening, Rick Dirtwater discusses General Francisco Franco and the conditions that led to the Spanish Civil War. Rick shares the extraordinary similarities between the modern United States and pre-Civil War Span. From the brutal mistreatment of Christians to a stolen election to the subversion of the military and national police, the US is on a path that seems more like Spain than any other historical country facing a leftwing threat.
Readings that Rick directly references are: "Franco: A Personal and Political Biography," by Stanley Payne & Jesus Palacios and "Taking the Franco Pill," by Identity Dixie's Harmonica.
