A documentary showing of John Pilger's War on
Democracy
on Thursday, May 8th at 7:30.
Sunset 5
8000 Sunset Blvd.
West Hollywood, CA 90046

Award winning journalist John Pilger examines the role
of Washington in America's manipulation of Latin
American politics during the last 50 years leading up
to the struggle by ordinary people to free themselves
from poverty and racism. Since the mid 19th Century
Latin America has been the 'backyard' of the US, a
collection of mostly vassal states whose compliant and
often brutal regimes have reinforced the
'invisibility' of their majority peoples. The film
reveals similar CIA policies to be continuing in Iraq,
Iran and Lebanon.
