Hopefully those that don't have access to MSNBC or the time availability to watch her show will watch it. and also others worldwide.

I passed this on to my friends to watch and also reminded them that 9/11 is also a date to remember in Chili . In 1973 the US aided coup led by General Pinochet overthrew the Chili democratically elected president Allende.

Perhaps many of you have seen the hollywood movie with Jack Lemmon and Sissy Spacek. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_(film)

I read earlier today about that on another DU Post. Why Latin America Didn't Join Washington's Counterterrorism Posse
http://www.democraticunderground.com/101656056

I read the article the op mentions TomDispatch...quite an eye opener.

My mother was never into reading or knowing the actual events happening. She shopped and read the gossip columns. I grew up in the USA and left when I was 20. My mother did not know what the Missile crisis was. Our neighbor came over hysterical...My mom didn't know a thing She never liked me reading so much. She even told me I was weird because I would go to my room and read.

Much of America is like my mom was , very unaware. or like my redneck brother is....just watches fox new, is patriotic because he does not know a thing about any other country. and he hates Obama.

Well, it WAS broadcast on MSM, which is a nice change. dixiegrrrrl Feb 2013 #33
I agree that MSM showing it was a great change, I just wish it had been more in-depth. DearHeart Feb 2013 #34
