À propos de ce contenu audio
What happens when one of America’s most decorated Marines turns against the very system he once served? In this gripping episode of History Crossroads, we follow the incredible journey of Major General Smedley Butler—from fearless battlefield legend to fiery whistleblower.
Once hailed as “the fightingest Marine who ever lived,” Butler’s postwar transformation shocked the nation. As he exposed corporate profiteering, denounced imperialism, and warned of a plot to overthrow the U.S. government, Butler became a voice of moral clarity in an age of silence.
Through immersive storytelling and dramatic turns, we uncover how Butler’s legacy evolved from medals to meaning, and why his warning—“War is a racket”—still echoes today.
