The Aftermath: The Banana Massacre

New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca revisits the Banana Massacre with Jack Werner, a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of History at the University of Maryland College Park. Jack expertly describes the scene on the ground in Latin America as these newly liberated countries were establishing themselves and how those growing pains resulted in the complicated and problematic labor practices by UFC, and others, in the region. Afterward, our Patreon subscribers can join Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early as they reconvene with Rebecca to discuss the complicated verdict and see if  it holds up. Join our Patreon!We have merch!Join our Discord!Tell us who you think is to blame at http://thealarmistpodcast.comEmail us at [email protected] us on Instagram @thealarmistpodcastFollow us on Twitter @alarmistThe   Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/alarmist.
