North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has raked in as much as $22 billion in foreign earnings from 2022 to 2025, according to a Bloomberg Economics analysis. That represents a 400% rise in revenues from the previous four-year period despite sweeping global sanctions.

So how did Kim do it, and why is a richer North Korea an even bigger concern for the world?

The history of slavery did not end with abolition. By the late 18th century, revolts, abolitionist campaigns, and growing public outrage forced European powers to officially ban the transatlantic slave trade. But the demand for enslaved labor did not disappear.

Episode 4: The New Frontiers of Slavery explores how, between 1789 and 1888, slavery was pushed into new territories and transformed into new systems of exploitation. As London, Paris and Washington debated abolition, the Industrial Revolution increased Europe’s hunger for cotton, sugar, coffee, ivory, palm oil and other raw materials.

From the Haitian Revolution to the plantations of Brazil and the United States, from Rio de Janeiro to Zanzibar, from the American Civil War to the colonization of Africa, this final episode of Slavery Routes reveals how slavery survived abolition by changing form.

Even after the transatlantic trade was banned, illegal deportations exploded. In just 50 years, nearly 2.5 million Africans were forcibly transported across the Atlantic. Through archives, historical analysis, and powerful storytelling, this episode shows how the end of the slave trade opened a new chapter in the global history of exploitation, race, empire and resistance.

Before Iran was America's enemy, it was America's biggest weapons customer. The US sold the Shah billions in advanced fighter jets, destroyers, missiles, and surveillance aircraft — including the F-14 Tomcat, the most powerful interceptor ever built, a jet so exclusive that only the US Navy was allowed to fly it. American technicians flooded into Iranian cities by the thousands. CIA officers trained Iran's secret police. And Nixon personally signed a blank check allowing the Shah to buy any weapon he wanted, no questions asked.

Then, in 1979, a revolution swept the Shah from power — and every last piece of that American military hardware fell into the hands of a government that considered the United States to be the Great Satan.

This is the story of how America armed Iran, how those weapons were turned against American interests, and how the consequences of that decision are still shaping the Middle East today. From the 1953 CIA coup that started it all, to the hostage crisis that ended the alliance, to the nuclear program that America itself helped create — this is a chapter of history that explains more about the current US-Iran standoff than anything you'll hear on the news.
