Nestor Makhno: Ukraine's Famous and/or Infamous Anarchist
Manage episode 321548320 series 3284458
Due to the current Russia war against Ukraine, I've cut the travel/tourist topics from these episodes going forward until Putin withdraws his troops or basically dies. But I will still look at various historical topics, like in this episode: Nestor Makhno was a revolutionary anarchist during a time of complete chaos of the post-First World War Ukraine. He fought against various coloured armies and commanded the respect of his own "Black Army". The peasants who followed him, named him their "father" and the communists feared his reputation among those peasants. Who exactly was Makhno, how did he rule and why did he treat the Mennonite communities of Ukraine so harshly?
