Episode description
The second episode of this podcast series explores how, inspired by the Russian Revolution, the Finnish workers rose up and gained the upper hand on the streets and in the factories. Even though the revolution had broad support among the population, the Social-Democratic party leaders derailed the mass workers' struggle into parliamentary and constitutional channels.
Intro music: Finnish revolutionary song "Punaorvon Vala" (youtu.be/VF3XqDQCPZA).
