  50 Reasons For 50 Years - Episode 08 Ted Yacucci - YouTube Channel Ted's 2024 interview on Black Op Radio, Episode #1225. Listen here. Respectfully, Ted has enjoyed a distinguished career working in media for decades. Len is a huge fan! New documents prove the CIA assassinated JFK. Watch Video. Len thanks and congratulations Ted for his good work, after starting his serious JFK research 20 years ago. Ted was just 8 years old when JFK was assassinated and fascinated by the case after watching Ruby shoot Oswald. Ted's research has really had two main focuses, Ruth Paine and the Chicago plot. During 2013, Ted and Ruth Paine corresponded several times over the phone during a 3 month period. When Ted didn't agree that Lee Harvey Oswald was involved in the General Walker shooting, Ruth denied a final interview. Ted has travelled to Chicago several times over the years, while researching the Chicago plot, filing several FOIA requests. Predictably, Ted was not given any serious answers via the various FOIA requests to the JFK assassination info gatekeepers. Since retiring recently in December, Ted has had a lot of fun creating new JFK video content. Have you seen Ted's most recent video, "You May Be A Lone Nutter If You..."? View Here. Len really likes this video of Ted's as it shows the CIA's methods for removing governments in an articulate manner. Ted makes it obvious that the CIA was out of control, manipulating elections and Congress, creating government coups etc.. The CIA was running contributions to a strike in British Guiana via cover under the AFL-CIO and George Meany. George Meany, President of the AFL-CIO, was CIA. Watch here. Why would an American union be used to help fund and organize a strike in a foreign country? Pre-electoral interference. In March and May of 1964, the CIA gave money to the Christian Democratic candidate, Eduardo Frei. A whopping $750k was funnelled by the CIA to Frei in March and $1.25 million in May, in efforts to defeat Salvador Allende. Over the next 8 years, the CIA kept up their efforts to keep Allende out of power. 1972 the CIA couldn't stop the people from voting for Allende, who became President. The CIA then sponsored a coup against President Salvador Allende, installing dictator Augusto Pinochet. Upon becoming President, Pinochet cancelled open free democratic elections after he was installed into power. Pinochet's dictatorship lasted about 20 years, during which time, a genocide was perpetuated against the Chilean people. In 1953, the overthrow of the democratically elected government happened in Iran, with the CIA installing Shah Pahlevi. Oil profits were funnelled to Britain and the United States after the coup, Iran has never been the same since the takeover. All of the CIA's chaos and genocides that they create comes down to GREED and PROFIT. It’s disgusting. Guatemalan President was thrown out mainly by the Dulles brothers, major shareholders in the United Fruit Company. United Fruit Company owned over 80% of the land in Guatemala, who was dependent on the CIA. After Guatemalan President, Elfego H. Monzon was removed from power, a genocide followed, over the next 20 years. The year before, the CIA had eliminated Congo President, Patrice Lumumba.on January 17, 1961. Patrice Lumumba wanted to have a fair democracy for the poor people of the Congo. He wanted the best for his people. During these events, John Kennedy was inaugurated as President on January 20th, 1961. Everyone knew that JFK was a big supporter of Lumumba, and would not have wanted him touched. When Kennedy found out Lumumba was kidnapped and murdered, he was openly devastated hearing the news. In the 1947 CIA Charter, the CIA was authorized to operate a mind control program like MK Ultra! LSD experiments included giving LSD to participants for 77 days straight!

About Tere Derbez Tere Derbez was born in Mexico City, has her art studio at San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, and Scottsdale, Arizona; since she was a child, she has showed her love for painting. As a teenager she began her studies at the Institute of Fine Arts of San Luis Potosí, where she cultivated a deep friendship with teacher Raúl Gamboa, a contemporary of Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Rufino Tamayo, and from whom she learned the basics of drawing and the secrets of painting, and whom Tere Derbez considers her mentor.  However, her interest in painting and writing never ceases. Since 1995, she has dedicated her full time to her passion; painting and writing, always looking for new forms and techniques of expression. Her painting style leads towards surrealism, having Remedios Varo and Leonora Carrington as role models. She describes herself as a passionate woman who loves all her experiences, recognizing that in the face of people, essentially in their eyes, their soul is reflected. She believes that at this time Mexico needs a new stream of artists that need support to be able to dedicate themselves fully to the creation of their works.  As a writer, she writes weekly in two newspapers in Mexico: El Sol de San Luis y Del Bajio, and monthly in Hominis Magazine. She has written two books of poems, and the novel «El Ángel de Sofía». She also has a foundation called «El Ángel de Sofía», which is focused on helping young people and adults from marginalized areas, to help to realize their dreams of life by promoting education, art and sports. The foundation puts special attention on the area of mental health. Tere currently collaborates in the Huasteca Potosina and the Sierra Tarahumara as well as in San Luis Potosí, where a Cultural Program was started and a «Cultural and Arts Center» was created in an abandoned market.  Episode Notes  00:00 Intro  07:12 Lesson 1: Life starts with family, and it ends with you  10:45 Lesson 2: How to overcome difficulties in life as a single parent  16:07 Lesson 3: Not everything that shines is made of gold  18:03 Lesson 4: Seven jobs will bring you 9 misfortunes  20:29 Lesson 5: Don't expect anything from anyone  23:45 Affiliate Break  24:35 Lesson 6: Don't control, let it go  29:14 Lesson 7: Love is all you need  32:38 Lesson 8: Learn how to use your energy  36:45 Lesson 9: How to love your life as you grow older  40:39 Lesson 10: The importance of Mindfulness   

While crafting her latest novel, Isabel Allende says she wanted to tell the story of the Chilean Civil War of 1891 from the perspective of a neutral party. She decided to make her protagonist a female writer who uses a male pen name and convinces an editor to hire her as a war correspondent. In today's episode, Allende joins Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes to talk about My Name is Emilia Del Valle. They discuss the feminist spirit throughout the author's body of work, their shared interest in pushing back against dominant narratives, and Fernandes' personal relationship to Allende's work.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Diego Boneta knew he wanted to write a sexy, steamy murder mystery for his first novel. “And I also really wanted it to be a novel that was a great summer read.” That's exactly what he's done with The Undoing of Alejandro Velasco. Set in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, the story follows a mysterious young man, Julian Villareal, who arrives at the estate of his friend and tennis rival, Alejandro Velasco, after his sudden death. “You think he's this super rich kid from Mexico City, who's studying at UCLA, and then you slowly start realizing that he's not who he says he is.” The book is also being adapted by Amazon MGM Studios as an original series. “It's my first time doing this, where it's acting out a character that I wrote in a novel.” But for Boneta, whose father was a “national [tennis] champion in Mexico [and] played Wimbledon,” he's more than prepared to play Julian. “Julian is something that I already have in my DNA, because we've been working on this for so long now, I just want to make sure that it's the best version of the show that it can be for audiences to be entertained.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Isabel Allende didn't publish her first book until she was 39, after losing nearly everything in the wake of the Chilean military coup. More than four decades later, she's become one of the most beloved Spanish-language authors, with over 80 million copies of her books sold worldwide. After political exile, writing books became Allende's way of making sense of the world. She wrote through divorce, affairs, and moving across continents. But after the devastating loss of her daughter Paula, even writing felt impossible, until her mother urged her to begin again. “My mother knew that the only way for me to walk the tunnel of grief was writing,” she says. In this episode, Anna and Isabel talk about loss, late starts, and new beginnings. Isabel met her most recent husband, Roger, in her late 70s, “an age when most people are knitting for their great-grandchildren.” Allende's newest novel, “My Name Is Emilia del Valle,” is out now.  Death, Sex & Money is now produced by Slate!

At 82, Isabel Allende is one of the world's most beloved and best-selling Spanish-language authors. Her work has been translated into more than 40 languages, and 80 million copies of her books have been sold around the world. That's a lot of books.Allende's newest novel, “My Name Is Emilia del Valle” is about a dark period in Chilean history: the 1891 Chilean civil war. Like so much of Allende's work, it's a story about women in tough spots who figure out a way through. Thematically, it's not that far off from Allende's own story. She was raised in Chile, but in 1973, when she was 31, raising two small children and working as a journalist, her life was upended forever. That year a military coup pushed out the democratically elected president, Salvador Allende, who was her father's cousin. She fled to Venezuela, where she wrote “The House of the Spirits,” which evolved from a letter she had begun writing to her dying grandfather. That book became a runaway best seller and it remains one of her best-known.Allende and Book Review editor Gilbert Cruz spoke about her life and career.

En el programa de hoy, Fernando Villegas comentó sobre la importancia de apoyar eventos culturales como el flamenco y promocionó sus libros "OVNI" e "Identidad Animal". Analizó la impactante imagen de Trump y Zelenski reunidos en el Vaticano, especulando sobre su conversación y sus implicancias geopolíticas. Luego, revisó la última encuesta de Pulso Ciudadano, destacando el liderazgo de Evelyn Matthei y los movimientos de Kast, Kaiser y Tohá.

In this episode, the Travel Mom Squad is heading south! Jess shares her birthday trip to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and Pam and Alex walk us through their tropical getaway to Roatán, Honduras. From charming colonial cities to vibrant beachside resorts, both of these escapes were powered by points and miles—and they're breaking down exactly how you can do it, too. Jess's San Miguel de Allende Birthday Getaway For her birthday, Jess wanted a trip that was cute, walkable, and filled with culture—and San Miguel de Allende checked all the boxes. She used points to book her flights and free nights at a boutique hotel that had cash rates of $800/night—a steal!  Jess shared how San Miguel felt totally different from places like Cancun—more Spanish-speaking, with rooftop restaurants, cobblestone streets, and an artsy vibe. She loved practicing her Spanish and appreciated how kid-friendly the town was (though leave the stroller at home). Highlights included a rooftop pool, the hotel's mascot dog Pancho (who even has his own Instagram), and a standout breakfast. Pro tip: order the San Miguel–style eggs! Roatán with Pam & Alex: Direct Flights & Island Vibes Pam and Alex flew to Roatán using United miles and IHG points. They started their stay in a bungalow—secluded, rustic, and quiet—then upgraded mid-trip to a Premium Ocean View room in the newer building.  Beach Time, Dining, and That Sweet Island Energy Roatán was a totally different vibe—bustling but beautiful. From colorful buildings to locals selling snacks on the beach, Pam and Alex loved the laid-back charm. Highlights included hotel spa visits, hospitality hours, and free snorkel gear and kayaks, plus great dining spots in town. Even when the resort was at maximum capacity, it still felt relaxing and fun. Alex and Pam both liked this resort even better than the Kimpton Grand Cayman, which is high praise! If you're dreaming of warm weather and want a new destination to add to your points wish list, this episode is packed with inspiration, strategy, and a few laughs. Tune in and start planning your own tropical escape! ☀️

La masacre de Allende, Coahuila, es uno de los episodios más crueles y dolorosos en la historia reciente de México. El 18 de marzo de 2011, un comando de al menos 60 hombres de Los Zetas tomó por asalto el pueblo. Todo comenzó como una venganza por una supuesta traición, pero terminó arrasando con familias enteras, viviendas y negocios, mientras las autoridades miraban hacia otro lado. Miguel Ángel Treviño Morales, alias “Z-40”, y su hermano Omar “Z-42”, líderes del grupo criminal, son señalados como los autores intelectuales.

El programa cerró con una reflexión sobre la decadencia de las instituciones chilenas y la pasividad de la derecha ante esta situación.

La presidenta del Frente Amplio (FA), Constanza Martínez, remarcó en El Primer Café de Cooperativa que en la arista política y administrativa de la fallida venta de la casa de Salvador Allende que costó la salida de la ministra Maya Fernández y el cese de la senadora Isabel Allende, nieta e hija del expresidente, respectivamente. Conduce Cecilia Rovaretti.

En Columnistas de Mesa Central, Ramón Ulloa y Kike Mujica conversaron con Isabel Plá y Tatiana Klima sobre las declaraciones de la abogada Francisca Moya, jefa jurídica de la Segpres, acerca de la fallida compra de la casa de Salvador Allende.

En un nuevo capítulo de “Política para Adultos”, Eduardo Sepúlveda conversa con Gerardo Varela y Pepe Auth sobre las consecuencias de las medidas arancelarias impuestas por Trump y sus efectos en la política chilena. Además, abordan la destitución de la senadora Isabel Allende y la renuncia de la ministra Jara, ahora candidata presidencial del PC.

En una nueva edición de Página 13, Kike Mujica conversó con las columnistas Andrea Vial y Paula Comandari sobre la historia de la fallida compra-venta de la casa del ex presidente Salvador Allende por parte del Estado, y las herramientas más usada de la inteligencia artificial, más allá del chat GPT.

El ministro del Interior, Álvaro Elizalde, se refirió a la histórica destitución de la senadora socialista Isabel Allende -ordenado por el TC-, advirtiendo que en otros casos similares "la jurisprudencia del tribunal había sido distinta". En entrevista con El Diario de Cooperativa, el secretario de Estado afirmó que, aunque "en Chile los fallos se acatan, si se confirman los trascendidos estaremos en presencia de un precedente grave". Conduce Verónica Franco y Rodrigo Vergara.

En el programa de hoy, Fernando Villegas analiza la polémica destitución de la senadora Isabel Allende por una operación de compraventa inconstitucional, cuestionando las justificaciones del gobierno sobre la "buena fe" y la "trayectoria política" de la afectada. Critica duramente la reacción de la vocera Camila Vallejo, el apoyo de Boric al "legado" Allende y el discurso incoherente del presidente del PC, Lautaro Carmona, en defensa de Janeth Jara, cuestionada por usar recursos públicos mientras aún es ministra. Luego aborda protestas en EE.UU. contra Trump, calificándolas de masivas pero vacías, y cuestiona la hipocresía del gobierno chino al defender ahora el libre comercio tras ser afectado por aranceles.

En el programa de hoy, Fernando Villegas reflexiona sobre el concepto de las dinastías, tanto políticas como artísticas, a partir del caso reciente de Isabel Allende, cesada de su cargo por el Tribunal Constitucional chileno. A propósito de ello, examina cómo ciertas familias mantienen poder o relevancia a través de generaciones, y analiza las razones sociales y culturales que hacen posible este fenómeno. Comenta ejemplos nacionales e internacionales, incluyendo a los Kennedy, los Borbones, los Habsburgo y las familias Parra y Bach, diferenciando entre la herencia de ambiente y la posible herencia genética. También destaca la funcionalidad histórica de las dinastías en monarquías para evitar guerras civiles. Cuestiona la validez de otorgar prestigio a ciertos apellidos por encima de otros y concluye que muchas veces el entorno y los incentivos del poder explican la continuidad de ciertos linajes, más que una verdadera transmisión de talento o virtud.

La presidenta del Partido Socialista, Paulina Vodanovic, reafirmó en Cooperativa que, tras la filtración del fallo del Tribunal Constitucional que destituyó desde el Senado a su histórica militante Isabel Allende, su tienda está "dolida" con el Frente Amplio. "Dentro de mi partido hay un ánimo complejo en contra del Frente Amplio: se ve toda esta cadena de errores, de desprolijidades, que terminan con la salida de una senadora (...), que tiene que ver con nuestra historia como país, como partido, y que es lo que finalmente vemos con mucha pena", expresó la parlamentaria en El Primer Café. Conduce Cecilia Rovaretti.

Saint John Hunt is the eldest son of "super-spy" E. Howard Hunt, a 27-year career C.I.A. covert agent and Foreign Station Chief, most well-known as the Leader / Director of the White House "plumbers" black bag team, who's botched burglary & arrest led to the impeachment & resignation of then President Richard Nixon.E. Howard Hunt, who passed away in January at the age of 88, was also involved in many of the C.I.A.'s most nefarious operations in Cuba and throughout Central & South America, including but not limited to the assassination of Che Guevara, assassination of Allende and coup in Chile, the coup in Guatemala, the orchestration of the Bay of Pigs, and plots to assassinate Fidel Castro. He is considered by many investigators to be one of the 3 "tramps" intercepted, detained, photographed and released without arrest or charges near the grassy knoll at the Dealy Plaza scene of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.Even more significant, Hunt had direct knowledge of the planning, particulars, participants and motives in the J.F.K assassination and has confided and entrusted this information and documentation to his son Saint John.Following the Watergate debacle, Saint John's father was sentenced to and served 33 months in Federal prison. Saint's mother Dorothy was killed in an extremely suspicious airplane "accident", while carrying a very large amount of cash to be distributed as hush money to co-conspirators and participants.On the very night of the botched Watergate 'job', Saint John was awakened in the middle of the night and at his father's plea / direction, became an active participant in assisting his father in the disposal of potentially compromising / incriminating evidence from the bungled burglary. Throughout his youth and into early adulthood, Saint John traveled worldwide, as his father pursued his duties as a covert C.I.A. operative. He was his father's proud son and trusted confidante. Hunt's career as a savvy, sophisticated intellectual, yet tough-as-nails team leader & 'can do' covert operative, made him the perfect Hollywood spy "role model" for characters like television's Mission Impossible team leader "Mister Phelps" and the follow-up film series, featuring Tom Cruise as "Ethan Hunt", a thinly veiled reference to Everett Howard Hunt.As the legendary spymaster (now age 88) lay in a Miami hospital bed, dying, his oldest son, Saint John Hunt sat in vigil at his bedside and shared his father's final days. As both a loving, compassionate son and an experienced professional care-provider, Saint spent many hours over the course of those final days at his fathers deathbed-side, and has been entrusted with privileged information, documents, audio recordings and other revealing items & explosive evidence regarding the Kennedy assassination.Saint John Hunt has been interviewed for a feature article on his father's life in the April 5, 2007 edition of "Rolling Stone" magazine, and also by the Los Angeles Times newspaper.He has appeared as a guest with both Ian Punnet and George Noory on "Coast-toCoast AM", with Alex Jones on "Prison Planet", with CNN's Glen Beck, and other broadcast, on-line and print media. (See links below.)Additionally he has recently been interviewed by Jim Moret for television's "Inside Edition" and is set to appear on an upcoming episode of CBS 60 Minutes.Saint John Hunt's new book "Bond of Secrecy" is set for publishing and he has written a screenplay with Eric Hamburg (Screenwriter / Co-Producer with Oliver Stone on the feature film "Nixon") and is in negotiations for production of a feature film about his father's career, their life together and the dark secrets of the C.I.A.In coming forward to discuss his father's career , their unique intimate personal relationship and their bond of secrecy, Saint John Hunt is hopeful that in revealing the in-depth information and evidence he has, he will help provide the critical missing pieces of the puzzle surrounding the Kennedy Assassination.It is his deepest desire that these revelations will bring closure and light upon the darkest chapter of our nations history. A darkness continuing to this very day, which imminently threatens our liberties and future as free Americans.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

For more than three decades, trailblazing artist and activist Joyce J. Scott has elevated the creative potential of beadwork as a relevant contemporary art form. Scott uses off-loom, hand-threaded glass beads to create striking figurative sculptures, wall hangings, and jewelry informed by her African American ancestry, the craft traditions of her family (including her mother, renowned quilter Elizabeth T. Scott), and traditional Native American techniques, such as the peyote stitch. Each object that Scott creates is a unique, vibrant, and challenging work of art developed with imagination, wit, and sly humor. Born to sharecroppers in North Carolina who were descendants of enslaved people, Scott's family migrated to Baltimore, Maryland, where the artist was born and raised. Scott hales from a long line of makers with extraordinary craftsmanship adept at pottery, knitting, metalwork, basketry, storytelling, and quilting. It was from her family that the young artist cultivated the astonishing skills and expertise for which she is now renowned, and where she learned to upcycle all materials, repositioning craft as a forceful stage for social commentary and activism. In the 1990s, Scott began working with glass artisans to create blown, pressed, and cast glass that she incorporated into her beaded sculptures. This not only allowed her to increase the scale of her work, but also satisfied her desire to collaborate. In 1992, she was invited to the Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, Washington. Continuing her interest in glass, Scott has worked with local Baltimore glassblowers as well as with flameworking pioneer Paul Stankard and other celebrated glass fabricators. In 2012, Goya Contemporary Gallery arranged to have Scott work at Adriano Berengo's celebrated glass studio on the island of Murano in Italy, creating works that were part of the exhibition Glasstress through the Venice Biennale. Scott has worn many hats during her illustrious career: quilter, performance artist, printmaker, sculptor, singer, teacher, textile artist, recording artist, painter, writer, installation artist, and bead artist. Her wide-ranging body of work has crossed styles and mediums, from the most intricate beaded form to large-scale outdoor installation. Whether social or political, the artist's subject matter reflects her narrative of what it means to be Black in America.  Scott continues to live and work in Baltimore, Maryland. She received a BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art and an MFA from Instituto Allende in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Selected solo museum exhibitions include The Baltimore Museum of Art (2024); Seattle Art Museum (2024 – 2025); and Grounds for Sculpture (2018), Trenton, NJ. She is the recipient of myriad commissions, grants, awards, residencies, and prestigious honors including from the National Endowment for the Arts, Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, Anonymous Was a Woman, American Craft Council, National Living Treasure Award, Lifetime Achievement Award from the Women's Caucus for the Arts, Mary Sawyers Imboden Baker Award, MacArthur Foundation Fellowship (2016), Smithsonian Visionary Artist Award, National Academy of Design Induction, and Moore College Visionary Woman Award, among others. In March of 2024, Scott opened a major 50-year traveling Museum retrospective titled Joyce J. Scott: Walk a Mile in My Dreams co-organized by the Baltimore Museum of Art and Seattle Art Museum. Also in 2024, Scott opened Bearing Witness: A History of Prints by Joyce J Scott at Goya Contemporary Gallery. Her latest exhibition, Joyce J. Scott: Messages, opened at The Chrysler Museum of Art on February 6, 2025 and will run through August 17, 2025 at the Glass Projects Space. This exhibition is organized by Mobilia Gallery, Cambridge, MA. Says Carolyn Swan Needell, the Chrysler Museum's Barry Curator of Glass: “We are thrilled to host this focused traveling exhibition here in Norfolk at the very moment when Scott's brilliant career is being recognized more widely, through a retrospective of her work that is co-organized by the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Seattle Museum of Art.”  In Messages, 34 remarkable beaded works of art spanning the artist's career express contemporary issues and concepts. Included in the show is Scott's recent beaded neckpiece, War, What is it Good For, Absolutely Nothin', Say it Again (2022). A technical feat in peyote stitch, infused with color and texture, this multilayered and intricate beadwork comments on violence in America. Embedding cultural critique within the pleasurable experience of viewing a pristinely crafted object, Scott's work mines history to better understand the present moment. The visual richness of Scott's objects starkly contrasts with the weight of the subject matter that they explore. She says: “I am very interested in raising issues…I skirt the borders between comedy, pathos, delight, and horror. I believe in messing with stereotypes, prodding the viewer to reassess, inciting people to look and then carry something home – even if it's subliminal – that might make a change in them.”   

En el programa de hoy, se debatió la polémica decisión del retail de abrir el Viernes Santo, lo que generó reacciones de sindicatos, la Iglesia y sectores políticos, incluyendo un proyecto de la UDI y RN para declarar ese día feriado irrenunciable. También se discutió el rechazo del proyecto de ley anti nepotismo propuesto por republicanos, revelando el oportunismo y cobardía de sectores políticos. Se abordó la negligencia del gobierno frente a los incendios en La Araucanía, destacando la renuncia de un funcionario aparentemente por motivos políticos y discriminatorios ligados a su postura pro-Israel. Se reflexionó sobre el antisemitismo en Chile y el impacto de las posturas personales del Presidente Boric en las instituciones del Estado. Asimismo, se cuestionó el deterioro de la figura presidencial, ejemplificado por la inscripción de más de 100 precandidatos a la presidencia y el comportamiento poco responsable del mandatario. Finalmente, se criticó el rechazo de la acusación constitucional contra Maya Fernández por la compra de la casa de Allende, interpretándolo como una renuncia del Congreso a su deber fiscalizador.

Dice un sabio refrán que, si la vida te da un samurái, hagas historias de samuráis. Así que como tenemos a Rubén Ibarzabal por estos lares, no hemos perdido la ocasión de charlar sobre la historia del país del sol naciente. Y hoy nos ilustra sobre la creación de una guardia de corps del Shogun nacida en un tiempo de transición en el que Japón tuvo que abrirse al mundo por la vía de la fuerza. En ese contexto crearon el cuerpo de los Shinsengumi, llamados a poner orden en las calles de Kioto. No os perdáis la primera de las dos entregas que dedicaremos a los que bien podemos tildar de últimos samuráis. En la segunda entrega cambiamos de tercio para escuchar a nuestra antropóloga, Noemi Villaverde, hablando de un libro publicado reciéntemente, “Paso a paso” (Capitán Swing, 2024). La obra del paleoantropólogo Jeremy DeSilva ofrece un relato evolutivo que explica cómo caminar erguidos hizo que la humanidad se conviertera en la especie dominante en la tierra. Todo con el inconfundible estilo de Una Antropóloga en la Luna. Terminamos con una antigua entrega de Allende los mares, con Pello Larrinaga, que también conducirá la despedida. En esta ocasión, nos traía una propuesta inusual: recopilar canciones que hablan de historia. Así es, música de muy diferentes tipos, estilos e idiomas que abordan personajes o sucesos históricos, desde Tierra Santa a Mecano, pasando por Los Nikis, Guns N' Roses o Mago de Oz Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

This interview includes Jeffrey Herlihy-Mera, Professor of Humanities, Universidad de Puerto Rico-Mayagüez (UPR-M); Annette Martínez-Iñesta, Instructor of Italian, UPR-M; and Baruch Vergara, Artist and Professor of Plastic Arts, UPR-M. This episode has been sponsored by the Mellon Foundation, the Department of Humanities at the UPR-M, and the Instituto Nuevos Horizontes.  This is the second podcast with Ilan Stavans about Latino USA; the first, in Spanish, is available on the New Books Network en español. About the book: In Latino USA, Latin American and Latino scholar Ilan Stavans captures the joys, nuances, and multiple dimensions of Latino culture within the context of the English language. Combining the solemnity of so-called serious literature and history with the inherently theatrical and humorous form of comics, this cartoon history of Latinos includes Columbus, the Alamo, Desi Arnaz, West Side Story, Castro, Guevara, the Bay of Pigs, Neruda, the Mariel boatlift, Selena, Sonia Sotomayor, and much more. To embrace the sweep of Hispanic civilization and its riot of types, archetypes, and stereotypes, Stavans deploys a series of "cliché figurines" as narrators, including a toucan (displayed regularly in books by García Márquez, Allende, and others), the beloved Latino comedian Cantinflas, a masked wrestler, and Captain America. Their multiple, at times contradictory voices provide unique perspectives on Latino history, together creating a carnivalesque epic, democratic and impartial. Updated to bring the book up to the present moment, this twenty-fifth anniversary edition includes thirty new pages of Latino history, from Hamilton to George Santos. Latino USA, like the history it so entertainingly relates, is a treasure trove of irreverence, wit, subversion, anarchy, politics, humanism, and celebration.

"Writing with a physicality of language that moves like the body in dance, Rebe Huntman, a poet, choreographer, and dancer, embarks on a pilgrimage into the mysteries of the gods and saints of Cuba and their larger spiritual view of 'the Mother.' Huntman offers a window into the extraordinary yet seldom-seen world of Afro-Cuban gods and ghosts and the dances and rhythms that call them forth. As she explores the memory of her own mother, interlacing it with her search for the sacred feminine, Huntman leads us into a world of séance and sacrifice, pilgrimage and sacred dance, which resurrect her mother and bring Huntman face to face with a larger version of herself." Rebe also helps other writers. With over thirty years of experience as a writer and a coach, she shows writers the ropes, helps them build a powerful, personalized writing practice, and teaches writers step by step strategies to find their voices, become the best writers they can be, and deliver their work to the world.

John Perkins is a storyteller. His stories tell of his work as an economic hit man, creator of a death economy that is polluting and consuming itself into extinction. He has served as advisor to the World Bank, UN, IMF, Fortune 500 corporations, and government and business leaders across the globe. “You know, my job was pretty easy, generally speaking, because I was offering the president of a country or his finance minister, whoever, a big loan. And the fact that this loan would help him and his family, his friends – they owned the businesses in most cases – they were the ones who benefited from big infrastructure” “They knew that if they didn't accept this deal, the people we call the jackals would come in and they would either overthrow or assassinate the President, whoever was responsible. And, you know, the United States has admitted to this over and over. Allende in Chile, Mossadegh in Iran, Lumumba in the Congo. My two clients. We haven't admitted to that one yet, but we have admitted to Diem in Vietnam and more recently [Manuel] Zelaya in Honduras. We've admitted to these things.” For seven out of his ten years as an economic hit man, John believed what he was taught in business school: to help a poor country pull itself out of poverty, you invest heavily in infrastructure. Statistically this can be shown to increase the country's economy – its GDP and GDP per capita. Per capita implies that everybody in the country is participating, but that's just not true. “GDP primarily measures how well the wealthy are doing and the big corporations.” John's insights are not merely theoretical; they are rooted in personal experience. In other episodes of this podcast, we've talked about cycles of debt that sink global South nations into dire poverty. In this conversation, John recounts the manipulative tactics for securing lucrative contracts for US corporations across the globe, thus creating these debt traps. To repair the damage, John urges a radical shift towards a ‘life economy'—one that focuses on sustainability, equity, and regeneration. John Perkins served as Chief Economist at a major consulting firm and was advisor to the World Bank, UN, IMF, Fortune 500 corporations, and government and business leaders in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and the United States. Before that, he apprenticed with shamans when he lived in the Amazon rainforest from 1968 to 1971 and has since studied with shamans from many different cultures. His eleven books on economics, shamanism, and transformation include the Confessions of an Economic Hit Man trilogy; Shapeshifting; The World Is as You Dream It; and Touching the Jaguar. They have been on the New York Times bestseller list for more than 70 weeks, sold millions of copies, and are published in at least 38 languages. https://johnperkins.org/
