Mourning the death of the great Eduardo Galeano.
Today, Latin America mourns the death of one of our most beloved and admired authors: Eduardo Galeano. Galeano was 74 and succumbed to cancer in his hometown, Montevideo.
If you are interested in the political and economic history of Latin America, you should definitely get a copy of his renowned book "The Open Veins of Latin America: Five Hundred Years of the Pillage of a Continent" published in 1971. The book traced the transition between European colonialism to United States imperialism, and it was wrote in a beautiful and accesible way. It was censored during the military dictatorships in Chile and Argentina in the seventies, although the book was published before these regimes were established as part of the U.S. foreign policy in the Southern Cone.
We will miss you Galeano, and your sobering voice.
