Continuing History
When the long wave of mass violence continues to wash through society, there is typically no sustained inquiry to match. The Institute for Continuing History (ICH) has been established to fill that gap, running deep and long investigations on some of the world’s most egregious and forgotten acts of violence.
Please join us on ‘Continuing History’, the podcast, as we seek to expose those acts, the perpetrators who continue to conceal them, and the ongoing impact of crimes against humanity.
