Open Veins of Latin America
Inspired by book of the same name The Open Veins of Latin America by one of my favorite authors, Eduardo Galeano.
"Globalization means that some specialize in winning, and some, in losing"
The book, a critical look at the history of Latin America as a history of exploitation, gained prestige long before it was given by Hugo Chavez to Obama, about which Galeano commented:
"Obama is the first Black president to make it to the White House, but I hope he does not forget that the White House was built by Black slaves."
