Open Veins of Latin America - The book Chavez gave to Obama

Category: eBooks, Magazines, Audio Books
Description:
Hugo Chávez, President of Venezuela presenting U.S. President Barack Obama with Eduardo Galeano's Open Veins of Latin America at the Fifth Summit of the Americas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTlBzdhpLYs "This book is a monument in our Latin American history. It allows us to learn history, and we have to build on this history." - Hugo Chávez, as reported by the BBC "A superbly written, excellently translated, and powerfully persuasive expose which all students of Latin American and U.S. history must read." - CHOICE, American Library Association "I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Galeano's vision is unswerving, surgical and yet immensely generous and humane. This book, written more than thirty years ago, contains profound lessons for contemporary India. Eduardo Galeano ought to be a household name in this country." - Arundhati Roy Since its U.S. debut a quarter-century ago, this brilliant text has set a new standard for historical scholarship of Latin America. It is also an outstanding political economy, a social and cultural narrative of the highest quality, and perhaps the finest description of primitive capital accumulation since Marx. Rather than chronology, geography, or political successions, Eduardo Galeano has organized the various facets of Latin American history according to the patterns of five centuries of exploitation. Thus he is concerned with gold and silver, cacao and cotton, rubber and coffee, fruit, hides and wool, petroleum, iron, nickel, manganese, copper, aluminum ore, nitrates, and tin. These are the veins which he traces through the body of the entire continent, up to the Rio Grande and throughout the Caribbean, and all the way to their open ends where they empty into the coffers of wealth in the United States and Europe. Weaving fact and imagery into a rich tapestry, Galeano fuses scientific analysis with the passions of a plundered and suffering people. An immense gathering of materials is framed with a vigorous style that never falters in its command of themes. All readers interested in great historical, economic, political, and social writing will find a singular analytical achievement, and an overwhelming narrative that makes history speak, unforgettably.

I am joined now by someone who warns of the dangers of comparing the attacks in Mumbai to the attacks in New York: award-winning novelist, essayist and activist, Arundhati Roy. Her latest article is called “9 Is Not 11 (And November Isn’t September).” It was published in India’s Outlook magazine, Britain’s Guardian newspaper, and on TomDispatch.com here in the United States. [includes rush transcript] Filmmaker Ron Howard on His New Film "Frost/Nixon" Academy Award-winning director Ron Howard’s new film is about the only American president who was forced to resign from office, Richard Nixon. The film is called Frost/Nixon and is set in 1977, three years after Nixon’s resignation. It recreates a famous set of televised interviews where Nixon broke his silence for the first time since leaving office. He was interviewed by British talk show host David Frost for more than twenty-eight hours. The interview ended with Nixon making a tacit admission of guilt regarding his role in the Watergate scandal. [includes rush transcript]

radical posters,.. anarchism, issues, events, and portraits

Category: Misc
Description:
hey there everyone.. i missed one big torrent, glad to see it back up and shaking off. noticed my posters were no longer indexed, so here they are again. this time i will use the pirate bay tracker.. it has been humming along real well for a few months there, the seeds always rise on the weekends. (a big thanks to the OBT seeders who sent this out 600+ times prior to shutdown...thanks much!) i wanna use the other tracker for this one because some kind soul has posted the p. bay torrent positively f%#king everywhere... so it is already usually well seeded. (perhaps some of you who seeded it previously might consider seeding this one as well? it is a pretty small file.. with some pretty relevant and applicable AGIT-PROP. 34 posters (some multiples with compression differences.. so the hi-res could be printed slightly larger...but they are all pretty 'size-able') (for more info on the subject matter for individual posters please click "files" above to see the list.. the titles are pretty comprehensive.) and 1 anti-iraq-war mp3. about 7 minutes (fairly somber and reflective ... samuel barber's 'adagio for strings' on the underside,.. and overdubbed thoughts from cindy sheehan and other gold star mothers, some iraq vets, ray mcgovern, howard zinn, arundhati roy, and martin luther king jr.)(thats the riverside church MLK, 'beyond vietnam'... not the figment of MLK they have concocted for children and journalists.) i made it about 3 years ago now,.. but as it turns out... still pretty 'current'.... if you have a radio show....(?) or know someone who does....(?) or one of you 'youtube' geeks out there wanna use it as sound for a montage? have at it...anything... just dont make money dig? (i too am a bit of a youtube geek.) these posters are 'creative commons' or whatever.. do what you will with them! wheatpaste? stickers? posters? t-shirts? some unexpected ideas that could use some 'airtime'. great then, be well all. great to see this site back up,.. the admin(s) are great at weeding out the nuttery and keeping it relevant. thanks. sabot!sabot!
