Send us a textEpisode: 3 Broken Windows & the Bracero Program Cathy Cannon (@CannonsFodder) and Royal Webster are back at it — two teachers, two microphones, and way too many hot takes. This week, we’re breaking down two very different but very connected pieces of American history: the so-called Broken Windows theory of policing (spoiler: it’s more propaganda than policy) and the Bracero Program (a mid-century “guest worker” scheme that basically meant “exploit labor, call it legal”).Along the way, expect zany detours through Dust Bowl Okies, company towns, NAFTA fallout, and why American wealth has always been built on the backs of the poor while the elites keep cashing in. Oh, and of course — Cathy and Royal’s usual banter, caffeine-fueled sidebars, and the kind of history class you wish you had in high school.Hit play, laugh, rage, and maybe learn something your textbook skipped.Follow me on TikTok, SubStack, and Bluesky @CannonsFodder and Instagram and Threads @CannonsFodder_igSupport the show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2528525/supportSupport the show
