Eduardo Galeano

“The underdevelopment in Latin America is a consequence of development elsewhere, that we Latin Americans are poor because the ground we tread is rich, and that places privileged by nature have been cursed by history. In this world of ours, a world of powerful centers and subjugated outposts, there is no wealth that must not be held in some suspicion.”

Eduardo Galeano, Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent
