The Sandinistas first came to power over 40 years ago, but in many ways their revolution remains unfinished. It\u2019s a story about politics and war, but it\u2019s also about a family, and how to imagine a better future when nothing is certain. \n\nIn this episode: Who are the Sandinistas? How did they grow from a rag-tag army to an unstoppable revolutionary force? On this episode we get answers -- from former Sandinistas themselves.\n\nYou can listen to the remaining three parts of 'Revolution Revisited' here: \n\nPart II: https://soundcloud.com/watsoninstitute/trending-globally-presents-revolution-revisited-part-ii\n\nPart III: https://soundcloud.com/watsoninstitute/revolution-revisited-part-iii\n\nPart IV: https://soundcloud.com/watsoninstitute/revolution-revisited-part-iv\n\nFor more information about the conference this podcast was based on, including recorded lectures and a short film featuring many of the voices in this podcast, visit [watson.brown.edu/nicaragua].\n\nAnd you can read a transcript of this episode here: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KsYAx_K0F3LbIL-cdiSKrzrOUX-AcTeq/view?usp=sharing]","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/2b127b00-37b1-4b6d-809b-bc5140d404a1/artworks-gnwnyoxmdzg28ggj-eg1jmw-t3000x3000.jpg"}
