After a speedrun through 800 years of Anglo-Irish history, I'm joined by Trash (@bidenbigboi) to discuss the Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) by Ken Loach. The film takes place during the Irish War of Independence and the beginning of the Irish Civil War. We discuss the film, what it means to be Irish-American, and the various themes and lessons we can learn from such a film.
