  • Where it Started: Hip-Hop History

    In this episode, we take a look at the rich history of what captures the Black community as a whole: music and hip-hop. Starting with the roots of a flourishing subculture, we digress into the founding of the Sugarhill Gang and the block parties that started it all. This picturesque retelling from the viewpoints of fans and people who were in the eye of the storm during the art form's early years creates an intriguing story like none other. From parents to the generations that would follow, listen to a close involvement of how hip-hop has shaped the community and shaken the culture to its core.

  • Rebellions, "Terrorism and Counterterrorism in Peru"

    Rebellions episode one focuses on the internal conflict in Peru from the 1980s to the 2000s. Primarily, it investigates the role of the Shining Path or Sendero Luminoso, a Maoist guerilla group who, though preaching a gospel of liberation, ended up killing the people they claimed to be fighting for. Shining Path's transformation from communist movement to death cult is a fascinating story of politics, violence and the dangerous aftermath of when idealism falters.
