Often overlooked in Central American history, the struggle for social justice in Honduras in the 80s is given a deserved spotlight in this episode from the LMC as we spend the hour with Michael Fox on Honduras’ forgotten history of social resistance.
Michael Fox is a freelance writer and the host of the new podcast, “Under the Shadow.”
Following a historic presidential election and the threat of a coup in Guatemala, the LMC spends the hour with Maya K’iche’ Guatemalan historian and columnist Maria Aguilar to discuss the importance of Bernardo Arevalo’s victory over corrupt political elites. Maria Aguilar is also a lecturer and postdoctoral associate at Yale University.
On this episode, the LMC speaks with Katie Coldiron, a digital archivist and doctoral student at Florida International University, on the longstanding, but often unspoken unease between academics and Florida’s Cuban exile community.
