About this listen
Pancho Villa decía la gente en México a principios del siglo XX, "puede andar 100 kilómetros sin parar, vivir 100 días sin comer, aguantar 100 noches sin dormir y matar 100 hombres sin ningún remordimiento". La leyenda de Francisco Villa está saturada de heroísmo, tragedia y romanticismo; es la historia de un campesino pobre que se convierte en bandolero por necesidad, por haber vengado una injusticia sobre su familia; la del genio militar que primero huye del gobierno opresor, y después, frente al ejército revolucionario más grande en la historia de su país, lo derrota y se convierte en el liberador de México, sólo para volver a caer en la desgracia cuando sus tropas lo abandonan o son liquidadas por el enemigo. La caballería de Pancho Villa, agregan los mexicanos con algo de orgullo, invadió Estados Unidos, y aunque vinieron a buscarlo, jamás lo pudieron encontrar. ésta es, cuando menos, la versión que conoce la mayor parte de sus compatriotas, que ciertamente no es la de sus libros de texto.

Hace poco más de cien años un campesino mexicano llamado Emiliano Zapata reclutó un ejército rural de las plantaciones y pueblos del sur de México, tomó por la fuerza las tierras de los haciendas y comenzó a repartirlas entre los habitantes de Anenecuilco, su pueblo natal en Morelos. Indignado y encolerizado por el despojo que los terratenientes habían venido efectuando durante años contra los pueblos indígenas, había decidido tomar la impartición de la justicia en sus propias manos.

Aquí se cuenta la vida de un hombre que solía despertarse, casi siempre, en un lugar diferente del que originalmente había elegido para dormir. Tenía este extraño hábito porque más de la mitad de su vida adulta, 17 años de los 30 que vivió antes de sumarse a una revolución, había sido prófugo de la justicia, bandolero, ladrón, asaltante de caminos, cuatrero. Y tenía miedo de que la debilidad de las horas sueño fuera su perdición.

La Revolución mexicana fue un momento decisivo del siglo XX. La lucha mexicana por la democracia, la igualdad y la justicia ha causado conmoción en todo el mundo. Ningún otro episodio de su historia ha dejado una huella más profunda. Se trata de un drama de tres actos lleno de política, persecución y guerra, sin mencionar los terremotos, las señales en el cielo, e incluso las sesiones espiritistas, mientras que destacan los villanos más grandes, los espías internacionales y las figuras universalmente conocidas como Pancho Villa o Emiliano Zapata.

Porfirio Díaz. Su vida y su tiempo narra la historia de uno de los personajes más fascinantes en la historia de México. Héroe para unos, villano para otros, su vida de soldado ilustra en plenitud una novela de aventuras del siglo XIX. Es el tema que aborda La guerra. Díaz nació en un mundo donde la gente despertaba a las cuatro de la madrugada para rezar el Rosario; formó parte de la generación que derribó a sablazos aquel mundo durante la Reforma y destacó como nadie en la lucha contra la Intervención y el Imperio.

Ningún otro gran personaje del mundo antiguo nos ha legado un testimonio personal tan sincero, tan hondo y tan patéticamente filosófico. Marco Aurelio tuvo que vestir la púrpura y la coraza del guerrero al frente de un inmenso y amenazado imperio.

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

The Roman gladiator has long been a figure of fascination. Portrayed frequently in fine art and popular culture alike, the gladiator is both a real part of history and a legend of a romanticized past. We know that these men entertained Roman audiences by fighting in dangerous and often deadly games. But who were the gladiators? What were their lives like? And why do they continue to have such a strong hold on our imagination, centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire?

It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.
