Fidel Castro por Carlos Moore.
------------------------
Carlos Moore (Nascido Charles Moore Wedderburn em Cuba, em 1942), é um escritor, pesquisador e cientista social dedicado ao registro da história e da cultura negra.
É conhecido internacionalmente pela luta contra o racismo, pelo panafricanismo e por ter escrito a biografia autorizada do cantor, saxofonista e ativista nigeriano Fela Kuti:"Fela, Esta vida Puta"

Biografia
Sua família era formada por pessoas de diversas ilhas das Antilhas: o pai biológico era de Trinidad e os pais dele, seus avós, eram de Barbados; o pai que o adotou era jamaicano e a mãe era natural de ilhas da região.
Ele viveu em Cuba até os 15 anos e mudou-se para Nova Iorque, Estados Unidos, em 1958. Lá conheceu Maya Angelou, com quem aprendeu muito sobre justiça racial e o pensamento intelectual negro. Retornou a Cuba em seguida juntando-se ao movimento revolucionário liderado por Fidel Castro. Ele concordava com os princípios revolucionários, mas discordava das autoridades sobre a discriminação racial persistente em Cuba.
Depois de ser preso algumas vezes, deixa a ilha em 1963, rumo à França. Lá ele conhece outros ativistas negros como o senegalês Alioune Diop e o filósofo poeta da Martinica Aimé Césaire e passa a trabalhar como jornalista na Agence France-Presse.

THE CIA: ON COMPANY BUSINESS

We once again examine that dark, vicious world of the CIA -- the use of U.S.
labor organizations, the overthrow of legitimate governments, providing arms
to favored groups, covert use of the American mass media, U.S. torture
schools and CIA torture supervisors abroad -- all resulting in great human
suffering and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and in the
maintenance of repressive regimes. Sections of the meticulously documented,
award-winning film _On Company Business_ are interspersed with the comments
of ex-CIA officer John Stockwell, and Molly Dougherty who worked on the
film. John also comments about the pending legal action against him by the
CIA, and a fundraiser for his legal defense fund, to be held at the
University of Texas.

The family of Sonya Massey is demanding justice after they say authorities tried to cover up her fatal shooting by a sheriff’s deputy in Springfield, Illinois, by initially claiming it was “self-inflicted.” Police body-camera footage showed this was a lie. The 36-year-old mother of two was shot dead in her own home on July 6 after she called 911 for help. “This is the worst police shooting video that I’ve seen. It is so senseless,” says Ben Crump, a civil rights attorney representing the family. “[Massey] needed a helping hand. She did not need a bullet to the face.”Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on over 1,500 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
