دعوة من سيرين ..لمشاهدة هذا الفيلم التسجيلى
|
Hello everyone I am sure you've heard something about this documentary, perhaps some of you have even watched it. "The End of Poverty?" traces the history of poverty up to present day. The cool thing about it is that it updates the issues around poverty to modern day language and concepts (so continues the stories started in books like Open Veins and How Europe Underdeveloped Africa). And it gives many present day examples of how and why poverty persists. In fact, the title alludes to Jeffrey Sachs' book (Mr. Aid to Developing World, for those who don't know him) "End of Poverty" which basically states that aid is the answer to ending poverty. he is one of those primarily responsible for effing up Bolivia's economy through his emphasis on aid and privatization, which the documentary does a good job of capturing. he is also the former academic advisor to Dambisa Moyo, with her new book "Dead Aid", which is somewhat interesting.
the documentary is definitely worth the hype. You can find it embedded in this also really dope website voxunion.com. it's on the right hand side of the homepage and the little screen can be enlarged. (you can also find it on hulu.com, but really who wants to watch it there?!). While on voxunion.com, allow me to recommend listening to the Alexander sisters' interview (Michelle and Leslie Alexander) who talk about "how the particular history of African America has been marked by a continuing classification of Blackness as criminal and deserving the worst forms of identity shift and 'social control.'"
in short, let us dub memorial day as a day to remember and renew our anger and mission to ending the struggles of black people. I hope you watch it and pass it along to your other networks.
peace Sirein

تماضر الكتاب ما ممنوع. موجود فى امازون. الفيلم برضه ما ممنوع. ممكن تشتريهو (دي في دي) من امازون برضو. الفيديو المجان الجبتيهو ممنوع يتشاف خارج امريكا بسبب قوانين الملكية الفكرية. طبعآ المؤسسات الحاكمة والمتنفذة عالميآ ما بتكون عايزة حقيقة الاستغلال الاقتصادي لدول وشعوب العالم التالت تظهر.
مؤلف الكتاب جيفري ساكس استاذ الاقتصاد السياسي في هارفارد. وهارفارد كما تعلمين فيها تيارات فكرية متناقضة ومتعددة.
