There is a famous historic figure who eclipses most others who have ever existed in Latin America, especially South America. His glorious cause led to the liberation of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru and Venezuela, with this latter nation being the country where he was born. We’re talking about Simón Bolívar, “el Libertador”. And the most interesting part about The Liberator is the fact that he was born into privilege – a young man with all of the wealth and support anyone could need – and still somehow found the drive and the passion to fight for the slaves, the natives and the downtrodden of South America. Find out more about this magnificent historic figure in the latest episode of the Learn Spanish with Stories podcast and enjoy! Transcript of this episode is available at: https://podcast.lingomastery.com/listen/1154
