7 p.m., UW-Milwaukee Student Union, Rm. 280
With the recent death of Hugo Chavez, UWM Students for a Democratic Society will be having a movie and open discussion in his honor.
A documentary about Hugo Chávez and the U.S.-orchestrated coup attempt of April 2002. It was filmed by a crew from the Irish national television broadcaster RTE, who were in Venezuela to do a feature on Chávez and, fortuitously, were able to record a full-length video documentary of the coup. The images of the events presented in this video contradict explanations given by Chávez’s opposition, the mass media, and the US State Department, and the White House.
