The Empire Never Ended ·

2022/08/15

Rey introduces saint and stench wizard, Nikolaj Velimirović, one of Serbian Orthodoxy's most important bishops and the gray eminence of Serbian Fascism. Once a government emissary beloved by Serbian liberals, he took a turn towards the fashy in the 1920s, catching the eye of Adolf Hitler, whom Velimirović compares to none other than Saint Sava himself.

2022/08/15

TENE unpacks the 1951 House Un-American Activities Committee report on the massive American Slav Congress of the 1940s which organized millions of Slavs in the US under a banner of socialist anti-fascist resistance. Despite being almost entirely unknown today, the ASC was a profoundly influential institution that the post-FDR US Government saw as one of its greatest threats.
