Students Set on Fire

Two students are set on fire by soldiers at a protest in Chile; archive accounts of the Battle of Gettysburg; and thousands of penguins are rescued from a South African oil spill.

In 1986, two students are deliberately set on fire by soldiers at a protest in Chile. Some listeners may find this account disturbing.

Also this week, the Battle of Gettysburg, Arafat returns to Gaza, Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations, and thousands of penguins are rescued from an oil spill in South Africa.
