After an election victory by leftist Bernando Arevalo in Guatemala’s presidential election last year, the LMC speaks with professor Marco Fonseca about this historic moment in Guatemalan history and how the right-wing tried to stop it.
Marco Fonseca is an Instructor in Latin American and International Studies, in the Department of International Studies at Glendon College, York University in Canada.
Following a series of protests against mining contracts with foreign companies in Panama, the LMC speaks with Jorge Cuellar about a major legal victory for environmental activists in Panama and what it means for the rest of Central America.
Jorge Cuellar is an Assistant Professor of Latin American, Latino & Caribbean Studies @ Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire.
The LMC begins the new year by spending the hour with freelance media producer Michael Fox to discuss the one-year anniversary of the Brazilian insurrection by right-wing supporters of former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro. Michael Fox is the producer of the podcast, Brazil on Fire.
