Greetings, Comrades! This time, we take a look at a thing that I’ve wanted to make an ep for a long while. Latvian bomb throwing anarchists that came into being right after 1905. And Peter the Painter is the most famous of them all, literally being the reason why British cops walk everywhere armed. Involved with a firefight with Churchill himself, it’s an amazing story. Part 2 coming soon! Enjoy! Support this show <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder">http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder</a>.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
