Why Venezuela?: How the US Tries to Undermine Democracy and Sovereignty in Latin America

By: Alexandra, Zoe

Why Venezuela? is a collection of essays from bold thinkers-journalists, organizers, scholars-from across the region. Covering all fronts, these essays take on the task of answering the titular question, interrogating history in order to understand how the US tries to undermine democracy and sovereignty in Latin America, with its particular fixation on Venezuela. The essays critique the US and opposition's roles in undermining this revolution, exposing the media's distortions and the roots of the right wing in Venezuela. They also contextualize the grassroots character of the Revolution and the broad impact that it has had on the Latin American region-a region the US has long sought to control.

Why Venezuela? Answering this question is crucial for all those seeking liberation from US imperialism, around the world and in the US. Get to the root of how Venezuela emerged as a grassroots, socialist project of resisting US domination, and why the US insists on targeting the Venezuelan people.
