Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Hi comrades! I am familiar with the common socialist youtubers (badempanada, hakim, etc) but am trying to expand my knowledge on basic politics and history especially in africa, south america, and other global south countries. Some lib stuff is okay if it's overlookable/well researched.
Basically, I am USAmerican and trying to expand my knowledge of the world beyond what I was taught/hear about. I am especially curious about Chile because my friend is Chilean, I know very basic history about Pinochet's dictatorship. Anything on US interference in other countries is also welcome.

It's not a history channel but Global Economy Report. Ben Norton does a good job of explaining the history when reporting. Idr if he ever covered Chile.

If you are into podcasts, Guerilla History and Blowback have done good work on this too. I want to say Guerilla History covered Chile at some point, but I may be mixing it up with another pod.

I just looked, and I might have been thinking of Rev Left Radio in regards to Chile.

Yugopnik makes good stuff. The boys of BoyBoy have made some great videos like their recent one about Chevron in South America.
