Arundhati Roy and David Barsamian at Seattle Town Hall.
Author of: An Ordinary Persons Guide to Empire
I think she's one of the most important thinkers in the world today. And
so utterly charming, and tells   more...it like it T..I..S. The most eloquent
spokesman of our time!
Picking between detergents....Great & so True of an analogy.

speech.
Bio:
Arundhati Roy (born November 24, 1961) is an Indian novelist,
activist and a world citizen. She won the Booker Prize in 1997 for
her first novel The God of Small Things.

Roy was born in Shillong, Meghalaya to a Keralite Syrian Christian
mother and a Bengali Hindu father, a tea planter by profession.
She spent her childhood in Aymanam, in Kerala, schooling in
Corpus Christi. She left Kerala for Delhi at age 16, and embarked
on a homeless lifestyle, staying in a small hut with a tin roof within
the walls of Delhi's Feroz Shah Kotla and making a living
selling empty bottles. She then proceeded to study architecture
at the Delhi School of Architecture, where she met her first husband,
the architect Gerard Da Cunha.

An unparalleled benchmark in documentary filmmaking. A wicked
soundtrack. Powerful imagery. Arundhati Roy's speech strikes to
the heart - every word poignantly and poetically weaving an
intricate tapestry of our modern global ache. America, hear her clarity
in objective voice; be confounded by it's compelling incisiveness.
The film brought me to tears... grief is an under-rated thing in the
American culture; main stream tv and movies have done a good job at
Desensitizing the general public to what really happens when a person
We love dies.  less

"Donald Rumsfeld says that his mission in the War Against Terror was
to persuade the world that Americans must be allowed to continue their
way of life. When the maddened king stamps his foot, slaves tremble in
their quarters. So, standing here today, it's hard for me to say this,
but "The American Way of Life" is simply not sustainable. Because it
doesn't acknowledge that there is a world beyond America."
This documentary and Arundhati's words come closest to the truth
about how an unnecessary death ruins people's lives, how the deaths
of countless innocent people we do not know on the other side of
the world hurt so many people, and ruin so many lives. I could go on
about so many other excellent points made in the film but won't.
I just want to thank Arundhati Roy for putting this out here, on
Anti-Fascism, Anti-Bush, Anti Fear, Anti-War, Anti-Globalism,
Anti-Cheney, Anti-CFR, Anti-IRS, Anti-SPP/NAU/UN, Anti-Stupidity,
Anti-head up Butt... WAKE UP AMERICA!

We is a fast-paced 64 minute documentary that covers the world politics of power, war, corporations, deception and exploitation.

It visualizes the words of Arundhati Roy, specifically her famous Come September   more...speech, where she spoke on such things as the war on terror, corporate globalization, justice and the growing civil unrest.

It's witty, moving, alarming and quite a lesson in modern history.

We is almost in the style of a continuous music video. The music used sets the pace and serves as wonderful background for the words of Ms. Roy and images of humanity in the world we live all in today.

We is a completely free documentary, created and released anonymously on the internet.  less
