Recorded October 2, 2014

Below is the original description of the event.

Building from his recent book, The Tupac Amaru Rebellion, Charles Walker examines the role this massive rebellion (1780-83) had in global history. In particular, he probes its impact on Spanish America’s wars of independence and whether it belongs in the category of an Atlantic Revolution.

Charles Walker is a professor of History and the director of the Hemispheric Institute of the Americas at UC Davis.
