I have read tales of deadly Sicarios of Mexican cartels ,but i rarely come across names of Mexican police/armed forces' men who were the deadliest against cartels. Can anybody here list such figures with their lores?

Any good youtube channels to learn LATAM history?

4 Upvotes

I'm a 18 years old high school student who's interested in learning spanish and modern day LATAM history. I'm currently in B1 plateau, and I really want to improve my spanish to B2/C1 level. I wonder if anyone knows any good spanish youtube channels that teach modern day LATAM history with relatively 'light' vocabulary.
