The Year Episode 9: Denied a lifetime

June 1919: Denied a lifetime   Ho Chi Minh battled for 50 years to free his native land, Vietnam, from foreign domination. First defeating the Japanese, then the French, and then battling the Americans. That journey started 100 years ago in Paris at the Paris Peace Conference, where he was working as a busboy in the Ritz Hotel. In Paris he assumed a new name - Nguyen ai Quoc (Nguyen the patriot)- and started speaking out for independence. It would be another 21 years, and 7 years after he had been officially registered as dead, that he assumed the name Ho Chi Minh (“The Enlightened One”) and the leadership of the Vietnamese resistance army, believing force was the only way that Vietnam would ever achieve its independence. This month’s episode details the start of Ho Chi Minh’s life’s mission while he was clearing up after the diplomats and politicians and bigwigs and the Paris Peace Conference.

The Year Episode 8: John Morris's Indian Holiday

170 years ago in 1839 Britain invaded Afghanistan commencing the 1st Anglo Afghan war. 100 years ago, on 6th May 1919 the third Anglo-Afghan war began, which led to the Afghans finally gaining independence and control of their foreign policy. 40 years ago the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan ending that era of independence. 17 years ago the US invaded Afghanistan. In that time the US has suffered 2,734 deaths as compared to an estimated 150,000 Afghan dead- civilians, government forces, and insurgents. The war and the deaths are ongoing… Afghanistan’s 170 year history of major powers intervening/invading in their country is ongoing…   This month’s instalment of THE YEAR podcast is about an English officer, Captain John Morris, a victoria cross awarded front line officer fresh from the trenches of the Western Front in World War One, and his first day at war on the North Western Front (now boarder between Pakistan and Afghanistan).

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
