The Hour of the Furnaces (1968) Part 1: Neocolonialism and Violence subs Eng/Ita/Fra

Hour of the Furnaces: Notes and Testimony on Neocolonialism, Violence and Liberation. Part 1 Neocolonialism and Violence.
"This legendary underground film criticized neo-colonialism and called for the overthrow of the Argentine government. Intended to be a film which "the System finds indigestible," La Hora was made and distributed outside of the commercial film industry. Because watching the film was illegal, the film transcended bourgeois entertainment: "We also discovered that every comrade who attended such showings did so with full awareness that he was infringing the System's laws and exposing his personal security to eventual repression. This person was no longer a spectator; on the contrary, from the moment he decided to attend the showing, from the moment he lined himself up on this side by taking risks and contributing his living experience to the meeting, he became an actor, a more important protagonist than those who appeared in the films."

People who escape their poverty and do what it takes to arrive in America in this day and age escaping poverty and political strife are termed 'illegal immigrants' and deported back to their homes.

Send your starving kids to the United States where they can live and work as "servants." That is better than dying. They can work and save their wages, grow up strong then return to their homeland. It's a win-win situation for both them and the employers. My ancestors were poor. They were subsistence farmers who worked the land, grew their own food, raised domestic animals, harvested their crops, canned their vegetables, slaughtered their farm animals for meat, and earned little money.

Why americans think that when the people ALL OVER THE WORLD claims that they want to fight against the "American Imperialism" it has something to do with the american trendy products "made in China" eh? Fight against the US Imperialism means that WE dont want; US Soldiers, political motivated movies,US NGO, US Petrol Companies, IMF, WB, IDB, CIA.Only MUTUAL RESPECT & DIGNITY for relationships and to do business. That's all! It's that really TOO difficult to understand for an average US citizen?!

Britain and The United States had to fight Hitler to protect their neo-colonialism. The USA and Brits did not care about anything except power. Who won WW2? Not the nations the allies "freed" from the Germans, Stalin got those!
