Bonus: The Empty Grave of Comrade Bishop
Listen now
Description
In October of 1983, Grenada's Prime Minister Maurice Bishop was assassinated in a coup, along with seven of his cabinet members and supporters. Six days later, the United States invaded the island country, and took control of it. The bodies of those eight people were never found.

This week we're sharing an episode from the Washington Post's podcast: The Empty Grave of Comrade Bishop.
