On this episode of the show I describe my experiences travelling to Washington D.C. as part of the human rights solidarity committee in the ongoing struggle to hold the American oil giant Chevron accountable for the massive destruction it has caused to the environment and indigenous peoples of Ecuador. All of us who went to Washington to participate in this action along with many others from both North and South America understood that the battle against Chevron is part of the wider struggle against imperialism, colonialism, and the capitalist system in this hemisphere. The American Empire has beaten down and brutalized Latin America for two hundred years, but time and time again the people have risen up, resisted, and refused to be silenced. Now they are united as never before.
