YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

2020 is the 47th anniversary of the military coup in Chile that deposed the democratically elected Popular Unity government of President Salvador Allende.

We talk with René Rojas, sociologist at Binghamton University’s College of Community and Public Affairs, to remember the history of capitalist counterrevolution against democracy and socialism, the role the CIA had in supporting the coup, and the legacy of Allende, one of the 20th century most admirable and courageous individuals.
