In 1960 C. Wright Mills wrote "Listen Yankee" as a primer on the Cuban
Revolution and its antecedents, exploring the relations of US Imperialism and Cuba
back to the beginning of the century. That the book was a best seller is
less important than the role it played in educating Americans about their own
history, the nature of American Imperialism in Latin America and the legitimacy
of the Cuban Revolution.
What we need now is something similar on Bolivia. Reading Marxmail often
requires knowledge or esoteric or little known events, groups and relationships
in Bolivia. We could use something for popular consumption that is as basic
and pugilistic as was "Listen Yankee."
