Ambivalent Offenders: Re-Examining History’s Most Questionable Figures
Manage series 3585872
Just like much of the past can’t be seen in black & white, neither can many of the people who lived there. So who are these people in the grey?
They've been called many things-- villains, notorious, infamous, questionable moral character, offenders of many crimes or horrific incidents. But like most people, the truth lies in the grey--and our podcast sheds light on the historical facts and stories behind each person in a conversational, approachable style and then finally lets us (& you) decide...Where do we think they fall in history’s judgment? Have they been fairly or unfairly vilified in the historical discourse?
Let us just boil it down to judging the hell out of some pretty interesting dead people.
