Reseña del libro "Viva la Revolucion! Ten (10) Movies (And a Short Story) About Revolutionary Uprisings in America (en Inglés)"

“Viva la Revolucion!” translates to mean “Long live the revolution.” This book is dedicated to those popular culture tidbits that carried a revolutionary theme, ten movies and a short story. This book is written because there appears to be a systematic attempt by the American power structure to use its awesome media to “dilute” the word revolution in much the same way that its overuse of such terms as “cool,” “booty call,” “get-go” and “funky” have done. White folks use of a term is a sign to black folks that it’s time to switch up and change our terminology, our dance moves, our handshakes and other cultural nuances that the majority culture tends to rip off in order to sound and appear “urbane.” The word revolution is not new to America because America was conceived in one. But America was fighting for white privilege and what you are seeing in the America of the present-day are battles being waged by the very groups that the white male omitted even when he was claiming this to be “one country, indivisible.” This book is a primer for these newfangled “warriors” who want to make a statement but when all is said and done, don’t really know their collective asses from a hole in the ground. This book includes a popular seller that I wrote in tribute to Sam Greenlee, a 38-year retrospective of The Spook Who Sat by the Door. Other movies that contain a revolutionary theme include Invasion of the Body Snatchers, “ both versions of “Red Dawn,” “Badge 373,” “Invasion USA,” the “Rampage Series” (three movies – ‘Rampage,’ ‘Rampage: Capital Punishment’ and ‘Rampage: President Down’) and “Triple 9.” A short story by Thomas Wolfe, “A Child by Tiger” is also added for reasons that will be explained. I conclude with an excerpt dedicated to Assata Shakur and a conclusion that asks, “Is revolution possible?” After reading this tome, you be the judge.
