About this listen
Cinco de Mayo is one of the most widely misunderstood holidays in America — and most of us were never really taught what it's actually about. In this episode I dig into the real story, starting with the Battle of Puebla in 1862, where a hungry, outgunned Mexican army turned back one of the most formidable military forces in the world. We'll look at what was actually at stake, why it may have changed the outcome of the American Civil War, and how a day that started as a political act by Mexican Americans in California got buried under beer commercials and sombreros. The history is better than the holiday it became.
