Eduardo Galeano, gran ekriven Irigwe ki pale pou tout peyi laten, mouri.

Eduardo Galeano, a Uruguayan writer and committed socialist whose historical works condemning European and U.S. exploitation of Latin America over five centuries made him a revered figure among leftists, has died. He was 74.

Galeano died Monday in Montevideo after battling lung cancer, according to the weekly publication Brecha, where he was a contributor.

Weaving tapestries of sometimes obscure historical anecdotes, Galeano's books presented alternative histories that gave equal weight to the sufferings of the downtrodden as to grand achievements of better-known historical figures. For some, the books were rallying calls. Galeano insisted he was merely trying to "unmask reality, to reveal the world as it is, as it was, as it may be if we change it."

His best known book, "The Open Veins of Latin America," published in 1971, described the historical legacy of the Spanish colonial era and capitalist plunder that followed it. He spurned conventional narrative in favor of anecdotes highlighting, among others, enslaved indigenous Bolivian miners, devastated Brazilian rain forests and polluted Venezuelan oil fields.

The book became a revisionist bible and soon a standard text in Latin American studies programs at U.S. and European universities. Galeano was not a professional historian and didn't pretend to be. He described himself as a witness who sought to rescue Latin American history from academics who had "kidnapped" it.

Sales spiked on Amazon after Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez handed a copy of the book to President Obama at the 2009 Summit of the Americas meeting in Trinidad and Tobago to make a point that the hemisphere had long been victimized by First World greed and cultural imperialism.

Galeano didn't spare Latin American governments, using vignettes showing a panoply of injustices including murders of reformers and modern-day subjugation of indigenous peoples. He knew firsthand the boot of oppression, having been arrested in 1973 by Uruguay's right-wing military regime and forced into exile, first in Argentina, then in Spain until 1985.

Galeano followed "Open Veins" with the equally popular "Memory of Fire" trilogy, a series of vignettes of North and South America history that one Times reviewer described as a "poetic scrapbook." Others used another metaphor to say the books were tapestries of outrage directed at perpetrators of murder and plunder.


"There is nothing neutral about this historical chronicle," Galeano warned in the preface to "Memory of Fire." "Unable to distance myself, I take sides."

In a 1988 stop in Los Angeles on a national book tour, Galeano told a Times interviewer that his idiosyncratic style was an attempt to "recover memory as a key to open doors, not looking back but looking forward, not as an act of nostalgia but an act of hope."

"That's why I wrote ["Memory of Fire"] in the present tense — like Benjamin Franklin is waiting for a green light just at the corner now," Galeano told the interviewer.

Latin America's leftist leaders Monday paid homage. Bolivian President Evo Morales called Galeano a "maestro of the liberation of the people." Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa said in his Twitter account: "Eduardo Galeano: Uruguayan writer and dear friend, the veins of Latin America are open because of your passing."

Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff said in a statement that Galeano's death was a loss for those fighting for a more just and united Latin America. "May his work and example of struggle remain with us to inspire us to build a better future."

In an interview with the New Yorker magazine, Galeano said his method was to impress readers with the "beauty and reality of history."

"Back in school, history classes were terrible — boring, lifeless, empty.... It was as if teachers were intentionally trying to rob us of that connection [to reality] so that we would become resigned to our present, not realizing that history is something people make with their lives, in their own present."

Born of Spanish, Italian, German and Welsh ancestry, Eduardo Hughes Galeano was born Sept. 3, 1940, in Montevideo and was largely self-educated. In his teens he began drawing cartoons for the Uruguayan socialist newspaper El Sol and by 20 was editor of another socialist newspaper, Marcha.

But his leftist politics got him in trouble with the right-wing military dictatorship in Uruguay, one of many in Latin America that took power in the 1970s. After being forced into exile, Galeano saw his books banned by authoritarian regimes in Chile and Argentina, as well as in Uruguay.

But with the politics of many Latin American countries veering leftward in the 1990s in reaction to neoliberal economics, Galeano became a "monumental" figure, in Chavez's words, and a beacon for political movements seeking to distance Latin American governments from U.S. and European influence.

In his 1978 autobiography, "Days and Nights of Love and War," Galeano wrote about the murders, tortures and disappearances that have characterized brutal South American regimes in the last half of the 20th century. A reviewer in the Nation magazine said the book proved Galeano a "magical writer in the best sense of the word" whose "intensity and appeal" matched the continent's best fiction.

Galeano also wrote "Soccer in Sun and Shadow," a love letter to soccer that many aficionados consider among the best books ever written on the sport.

Galeano is survived by his third wife, Helena Villagra, and three children.

eske w ka fè yon parallel ant Depestre e Galeano pou nou menm ki pat gen tan li liv yo. Ki ekriven ayisyen kontanporen nou ka konpare ak li ?

Wozo, monchè, mwen pa konnen okenn ekriven ayisyen ou menm latino ameriken ki kapab konpare ak Galeano. Pi pròch lan ta kapab Jacques Roumain.

Galeano te angagé l directeman lan batay sosyal e politik kote li tap fè analiz sitiyasyon jeyopolitik avèk konsekans sosyal ak ekonomik sa genyen lan peyi yo.

Kanta Depès, li pa ladann paske li pi opòtinis ke sosyalis. Li chanje kazak two souvan pandan karyè l. Li te byen kòmanse lan mouvman etidyan avèk La Ruche pou konbat Lesko ak milat yo, men li vin egare apre sa.

Galeano vin popilè, lè Chavez te fè Obama kado yon liv li pandan miting T and T an.

Anpil EKRIVEN AYISYEN ou byen sa k rele TET yo ENTELEKTYEL yo ,te SOSYALIS paske se te yon bagay alamod.
Anpil ladan yo yo te SOSYALIS lan jan MUSSOLINI te SOSYALIS lan JENES li.

DEPES ;premyeman li te vin anti-kominis ,anti KIBA ,e pi ta misye te kite ENPERYALIS FRANSE yo ize l lan LIT ke yo t ap mennen pou destabilize ARISTID lan.

Li pa t rive lan pwen LIONEL TROUILLOT men li te preske rive la.

Mwen t ap mande m menm si misye pa t ap travay pou ENTELIJANS FRANSE!

Se sak fè m degoute ak Depès.
Se yon nèg ki te rive lan entimite Fidèl avèk Che.
Mesye yo te fè l konfyans paske yo pat kite nenpòt moun antre lan fal yo.

Pandan tan saa, li te an kontak ak Lafrans.
Misye janbe al Lafrans e se lè saa li kòmanse ap pale revolisyon an mal.
Alòske jiska la fen, Mata Janklod ta p sipòte revolisyon an.

Kèlkeswa sa Lafrans te pwomèt li, yo pa t bali l paske kounyea sèl bagay li kapab di ke li se yon sitwayen Franse.

Mezanmi, Rene Depès se ekzanp sa yo rele ayisyen dyòl lach, pa sirèt non.
Mwen te tande yon nèg ap pale sou chanèl franse outre mè an.
Lan tèt mwen mwen ta p di ayisyen saa gen yon move diksyon!
Lè yo di se te Depès ki ta p pale, mwen sezi.

Mwen pat vle nonmen akademisyen franseuu ya pou francofou pa banm gwo pye.Men eske misye tou nou ka konpare l ak Galeano.?

eske franseuu yo tap ba Galeano yon pri pou liv li ekri yo. pou ki sa yo pat ba Antenor Firmin yon pri pou liv li ekri ki rele :De l'egalité des races humaines." Pou ki sa yo pat ba Jean price Mars yon pri pou Ainsi parla l'Oncle .pou ki sa yo pat ba Roumain yon pri pou Gouverneur de la rosée ?Pou ki sa yo pat ba placide yon pri pou liv li ya ke Soukar di tout ayisyen konsekan te dwe li liv sa ki pale de enfliyans kolonyal la an ayiti.o pwen de vi literè ki liv Depestre ekri ke nou ka konpare ak gwo che dev literati ayisyenn  sa yo? pou ki sa se Depestre yo bay pri Goncourt.?

Nou tande bann gran dizè ti fezè Galeano pat yon moun ki te gen gwo diplom .se te yon moun ki te edike tet li.Jodya yon moun pa beswen al chita nan yon sal nan yon iniversite pou edike tet w.la plipa di tan se rate yo ki toujou gen vye konpleks sa yo.

GALEANO se te "epitome" OTODIDAKT.

Misye te kite LEKOL FOMEL depi anvan l te gen 15 ZAN.
E misye petet te lan KATEGORI yon GRACIA MARQUEZ

"Galeano was born in Montevideo, Uruguay.[3] His two family names were inherited from Welsh and Genoese great-grandfathers; the other two were from Germany and Spain.[4] Galeano's family belonged to the fallen Uruguayan aristocracy; Galeano himself went to work at fourteen, having completed just two years of secondary school.[4]"

avantaj li genyen li te ka ekri nan lang li te pale lakay li. ayisyen pap janm gen Aristide rekonesans men si jodya nap ekri nan lang nou fok nou sonje premye gout la pli ki te fè pye bwa liberte lengistik saa pouse wi ki fè jodya nou ka gen yon akademi kreyol.

Ayisyen bliye fasil si sw pa movèz fwa.
Aristid popilarize Kreyòl ( Ayisyen ) depi l parèt sou sên nan.

Men mwen sonje ke premye nèg ki entwoduy lang saa la radyo se Teyofil Salnav.
Yo te rele l ZO. Yo te konn ri nèg saa e pase l lan betiz.
Men li se yon pyonie.

Wi mwen sonje Salnave trè byen misye te rete nan Rue du Centre tou pre lopital yo te rele Asile francais ya. se nan bouch Salnave mwen te premye tande pawol :la ri ya se salon pep la.Misye te konnen se kreyol ayisyen pale men mwen pat janm tande l di fok kreyol vinn lang ofisyel tankou  franseu non.

Nou gen dwa di ke Salnav fè yon revolizyon lan radyo pou lang Kreyòl lan.
Li te pale bon kreyòl alòske mesye ki vin apre li yo tap pale kreyòl pwenti pou yo montre se franse yo konn pale.
De nèg tankou Rodolf Hera ki te konn mele franse ak kreyòl, tankou Douyon ki te spikè lan radyo komès ki tap pwenti dyòl li komsi se anpil efò li fè pou pale kreyòl.
Te gen yon ti grimo lan radyo ayiti, ou te mèt di se yon blan ki tap pale kreyòl.

Salnav te konn pase nèg yo lan betiz tou lè li di yo pa repete non 2 fwa.

Ayiti pa t lan epòk apre Konstitisyon 86 lan. Moun pa t imajinen kreyòl ta p rive kote li ye jodya.

Wi;

Mwen sonje TEYOFIL SALNAV ;misye te gen FANMI ki te rete PETYONVIL lan rout ki mennen bo OTEL IBOLELE an.
Misye se te yon bon LODYANSE ;depi l ap pase se te pou l di yon bagay pou fe MOUN ri.

Nou pa neglije wol PYONYE TEYOFIL SALNAV di ZO.Moun ki te konnen l di ke limenm li te rekonet WOL ke l ta jwe an.

Tankou menm jounen jodi an ,gen yon seri de NEG pou montre ke yo edike le y ap pale se pou yo pale yon LANG ki pa KREYOL ,ki pa FRANSE;ou pa konn ki LANG.
Emisyon ZO yo sou RADYO KARAYIB ou RADYO POTOPRENS se te yon EMISYON PIBLISITE ke anpil MOUN te koute ;paske premye fwa sou RADYO ,yon MOUN te pale tankou AYISYEN.

si m pa twonpe se misye lè l te jen gason sou gouvenman Estime ki tap travay nan ministè infomatyon ki te konn ap mache nan tout pwovens pou l montre film ki pale de sante piblik.misye te gen yon machinn ki te gen yon wo  parlè ak yon projektè e li invite tout moun sou plas ladwann o cap pou vinn gade film sa yo.

Misye se te gwo Estimist li te renmen kritike Paul Magloire menm jan ak Antoine Rodolphe Herard.ki te propriyetè Radio Port-au-Prince.

ROZO;

Wifout ;w ap fe m sonje NEG sa yo ,tankou ANTOINE RODOLPHE HERARD sou RADYO POTOPRENS.

ZO se te yon GRAN AYISYEN ;misye te ka fe menm jan ak lot LEPANDYE yo ;paske li te ka pale "bon FRANSE" si l te vle.

Pou yon NEG lan lanne 1950s yo ;pou w monte sou RADYO ap pale KREYOL,bon KREYOL ;se pou w te BRAV wi.

Se te yon EPOK ;ti NEG ki te di yo konnen yo te konn di ke KREYOL pa LANG;se MOUN sot ki pale l e sitou pa t gen okenn MOUN ki ta menm oze KESYONE sa yo t ap di an!

Prosè antr Lang kreOl e Lang fransèz pa exziste an AYITI. Ayisyen o plu gran nonbr (avèk yon majorite ekrazant) exprime yo an kreOl, sela nanpêch, nou te obsèrve an "été" 2014, enterê yo pour Lang fransèz la te entakt.

Dizon, kèlkeswa nivo entèlektuèl e/ou sosyal sitwayen an, angouman an rèst le mêm !!!

PeryOd sa a nou te vivr an AYITI a (40 jours) te pèrmètr nou fokalize rechèrch nou sou yon seri de sujè sansibl ke nou te abitue trete sou forumhaiti.com. Nou te resanti nesesite de verifye la verasite de sèrten temwAnyaj.

Swit a experyans lan :

Nou gen la kazi sèrtitud ke problèm antr Lang kreOl e Lang fransèz se envansyon yon pwAnye de konpatriOt rezidan prensipalman o Zeta-Zuni.

AMOPH

Mwen we ou tounen ak bagay sa a anko ;pou w di ki jan AYISYEN ann AYITI panse ak bagay KREYOL-FRANSE sa a.

AMOPH ki jan ou vle yo panse le MOUN ki an CHAJ yo kontinye ap pale de SIPERYORITE lang FRANSE an?

Moun ki pi granmoun yo ,konnen ki jan bagay yo te ye.Menm yon NEG tankou LESLIE MANIGAT te oze di ke "LE CREOLE EST UNE ABOMINATION" e natirelman se an FRANSE li te di l.

Sa NEG ki jan w di l lan ki rete OZETAZINI yo ;ak anpil NEG ki rete o KANADA tou swa di an pasan ;se ke FRANSE pa ka LANG EDIKASYON lan yon peyi kote yo pa pale FRANSE.
Sa NEG a NEGES sa yo ap di ke yon LANG ke w aprann LEKOL ,paka LANG EDIKASYON.

Se ann AYITI sa Selman ke sa ap fet ;se Dr YVES DEJEAN ,youn lan NEG ki toujou ap di sa e misye rete ann AYITI!
