The end of poverty.
 

Prachtige documentaire over de dynamiek, het ontstaan en status quo van globale armoede. Ietwat schools, ok.



"A sort of "An Inconvenient Truth" for global economics…a powerful description of how Western policies since colonialism have subjugated Third World countries."
- Charles Masters, The Hollywood Reporter

"Beautiful and compelling...This film tackles the issue of global poverty with clear-eyed honesty and optimism."
- Yes! magazine Spring 2009 Film pick

"Warning: Don't watch The End of Poverty? (or read about it) if you want to preserve your contentment with your lifestyle and the web of structures—historic and current—that make it possible."
- Kaitlin Barker, Sojourners Magazine

"Diaz's clear-eyed look at how cultures of despair and dependency are created and maintained is alone worth the price of admission."
- Ernest Hardy, LA Weekly

"An impressive piece of work. Clear. Direct. A movie that I would have liked to make!"
- Raoul Peck, Director "Lumumba"

"This amazing movie not only explains how global inequality has its roots in 1492, but also allows the victims of "Western civilization" to speak for themselves.
- Louis Proyect, posted to IMDB (read full review)

Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings.

Het westen is een parasiet die teert op de rijkdom van de derde wereld?

Dat is al langer geweten... Het is te makkelijk om die stelling alleen aan de basis te leggen van het hele derde wereldprobleem, maar het heeft er verdomd veel met te maken.
