On ‘The Jakarta Method’ (feat. Vincent Bevins)
This week, Nate speaks with journalist Vincent Bevins (@vinncent) on the topic of his new book, ‘The Jakarta Method: Washington’s Anticommunist Crusade and the Mass Murder Program That Shaped Our World.’ The book covers clandestine Cold War operations in countries like Indonesia, Brazil, Chile, Guatemala, and elsewhere in the world in which the US aligned itself with forces of reaction to exterminate leftist political organizations. It’s a phenomenal work and we recommend you get it.
The book is available here: https://vincentbevins.com/book/
This week’s bonus features Francis, Joe Kassabian (@jkass99) of the Lions Led by Donkeys podcast, and friend of the show Carey Shockey (@shocks) in a discussion of the 2019 veteran-themed horror film VFW. Get it on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/38036544
