Uprising: A Guide From Portland Trailer

On May 25th, 2020, George Floyd was killed by Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin, sparking an unprecedented series of nationwide protests against police brutality. At first, the protests in Portland were like the protests everywhere else. But then they just kept going, and going, for more than a hundred consecutive nights of tear gas, rubber bullets and beatings. Federal agents with chemical weapons, right wing vigilantes with homemade explosives and the Portland Police Bureau failed to stop Portland's Black Lives Matter movement. You've seen pieces of this story on the news. Now you can hear the truth, in the words of the people who were there.

For decades, Portland has been one of the USA's most violent battlegrounds between the white supremacist right and the anti racist left.

Tactics and Teargas

Inspired by past resistance movements, Portland has at different points adopted a variety of tactics used to achieve protest objectives. Broken windows, graffiti, and nearly nightly dumpster fires has lead the perception that Portland is in ruin. But if you dig deeper than the snappy headlines you’ll find the real destruction that’s facing the city and local ecosystem is due to the unprecedented amount of poison gas munitions used in an American city.

There’s a reason the History Channel has produced hundreds of documentaries about Hitler but only a few about Dwight D. Eisenhower. Bad guys (and gals) are eternally fascinating. Behind the Bastards dives in past the Cliffs Notes of the worst humans in history and exposes the bizarre realities of their lives. Listeners will learn about the young adult novels that helped Hitler form his monstrous ideology, the founder of Blackwater’s insane quest to build his own Air Force, the bizarre lives of the sons and daughters of dictators and Saddam Hussein’s side career as a trashy romance novelist.
