In this episode, we explore the life of one of the most famous—and controversial—women in Latin American history. She has been called many names: Malinche, Marina, Malintzin, Malinalli. An Indigenous woman at the heart of the Spanish conquest, she has been viewed as both a traitor and a crucial bridge between cultures. But how much of her story is shaped by bias?
