The Egyptian Revolution & Nasser's Era w/ Ahmad Shokr (AR&D Ep. 7)

The Egyptian Revolution & Nasser's Era w/ Ahmad Shokr (AR&D Ep. 7)

With this episode of Guerrilla History, we roll into our next case study in our series African Revolutions and Decolonization. Here, we turn our focus to Egypt, and particularly the 23 July Revolution in 1952 and the rise of Nasser. However, to tell this story, we turn back to the pre-colonial era, discuss the British colonial period, and the post-independence monarchy before getting to the Free Officers Movement. A LOT of history covered here, and a really fascinating conversation with the terrific Prof. Ahmad Shokr! We're sure you'll learn a lot here, and be sure to stay tuned for the next episode of our AR&D series, which is a deep examination of Nasserism both domestically and regionally!
