A Conversation With Best-Selling Author, Isabel Allende
Building Bridges had a rare opportunity
to sit down with one of the most widely read writers in the world, Isabel Allende, on the occasion of the paperback
release of her bestseller âIsland Beneath The Seaâ. Allende discusses her novel, which powerfully evokes historical events that rocked the late 18th century. She discusses the enthralling, blood-chilling, & heart-breaking story that connects the links between the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the revolt of the Haitian slaves led by Toussaint Louverture , the sale of Louisiana to the U.S, & the rising influence of the Abolition movement. Allende provided insight into her politics and its creative expression through her writing. She juxtaposes slave rebellion and the quest for self-determination of past decades with
the continuing reality of various nationâs imperialist designs, and the still catastrophic results for the worldâs peoples. Allende also spoke of her painful recollections the death of her cousin ,Chileâs socialist Pres. Salvador Allende, who died in a coup engineered by General Augusto Pinchot, leading to years of fascist rule which deeply influenced the core of her writings. Similarly her desire for the exhumation of Salvator Allende to determine the exact manner of his death, as are her writings, are a quest for historic reclamation and social rectification.

George Carlin died three years ago, on June 22, 2008. Lacking much formal education, he proved to be an impressive thinker and political analyst. Originally a hit as a middle-of-the-road, Hollywood comic, his political thinking moved leftwards over the years. By the 1990s, he was America's preeminent Progressive comic and satirist--and more popular than ever. This tribute includes four of Carlin's finer routines from the 1990s, with intros by me.
