History In The News

By OXYS

History in the News is a podcast dedicated to connecting modern events with historical context. Oftentimes, we hear commentary that is strictly opinion-based which does not provide the background for what is actually happening. We believe that history repeats itself and so we do our best to learn from the past to help people form well informed worldviews for the future.

Bosnia, Ukraine, & Russia - An Interview with Ella Colic - Ep.10

Today I am excited to release my first interview! Today we are speaking with Ella Colic about her book, "Trees Without Roots" in which she provides first-hand accounts of the Bosnian Civil war. Bosnia has much in common with Ukraine being that they are both formerly Soviet-Bloc States and that they have both been torn by war various times throughout their history.

In this interview I seek to learn more about the Bosnian War and the outcomes of such a horrible conflict. Then, we apply our understanding of the outcomes of the Bosnian War to speculate on what Ukraine may look like after their current conflict with Russia.

On Friday June 24th, 2022, the Supreme Court of the United States overturned Roe v. Wade which was a pivotal case from 1973. In today's episode we break down the history behind the decision and examine the context. Our goal is to get a better understanding of the abortion movement and its roots so we can inform ourselves in the coming days as the States are left to hash out their own abortion policies.
