The fight against capitalism has many aspects, particularly the distinctive economic models that concentrate the capital in few hands.

Natural disasters in Bolivia have been getting worse with the passage of time. It's brought about by a system: the capitalist system, the unbridled industrialization of the resources of the Planet Earth.

Globalization creates economic policies where the transnationals lord over us, and the result is misery and unemployment.

With Bolivia, I had hope that a discriminated African-American, with another discriminated indigenous peasant leader, I hoped that together we could work for justice and equality. Not only for just two countries, Bolivia and USA, but for equality around the world.

Capitalism is destroying Mother Earth, and to destroy Mother Earth is to destroy humanity.

For me, being leftist means fighting against injustice and inequality but, most of all, we want to live well.

Some countries of Europe have to free themselves from the US Empire. They are not going to frighten us because we are a people with dignity and sovereignty.
