As an American, and seeing 9/11 in the title I immediately assumed you were speaking of the World Trade Center attack. I had no clue this was a horrid thing that my country was doing. I had no idea my government was taking away the freedoms and rights of another. Thank you for educating me, thank you for opening my eyes to the reality that is my government. That I was never taught in school. People need to know this, they need to know the things that the politicians they elected will never tell them.

I am absolutely disgusted by the US education system. I had an entire unit on the cold war, and all I was told, in summary, was "the us disliked communism and fought Russia for capitalism. The Vietnam War stemmed from this." I am truly shocked about how much I was not taught, and how long I've gone not knowing about any of this. The 9/11/01 tragedy is truly awful; however, this other incident holds much more meaning for me now. To hear that not only a man was killed, a public figure nonetheless, but that this action caused a potential future to be lost entirely. That this future which was ripped from the hands of the impoverished could have benefited so many people, but it was denied because corporate American greed has not only greatly impacted so much in such a negative way, but also cannot take the blame or even credit among their own citizens.

I´m from Chile and Salvador Allende was not a good president at all, but also at the same time he was being sabotaged, food was being held up and not distribuited, and a bunch of protests were ignited artificially, all of this culminated on the dictatorship that Augusto Pinochet had, and even Augusto himself was just a puppet for the political interest of the United States, Chile became an economical experiment introducing neoliberalism. Around this time most of south america had dictatorships bc of the CIA interventions, it´s named Operation Cóndor.

I can't talk for everyone in Latin America, but at least in my social circle, in a Central American country, Chile's 9/11 is very much ingrained in our memory. And, I think obviously, feels closer to us than what happened in 2001. The easiest way to get your closest neighbors to distrust you is by being a constant dick to them. I think Russia is the most recent example.

Nah, not more. It’s incredibly important to teach history, lest we forget the mistakes of the past, but 9/11 (2001) affected many Allied countries, US citizens & Arabic people. It spawned a war brought about through US govts lies; they even shielded terrorists from justice (the Saudi’s flown back in the hours after the skies were closed, because they have money & oil). I’d guess just as many people died in the Middle East (& helped encourage radicalism) as did the US’ espionage & coup’s in South America. The ‘Red Threat’ is no longer much of an issue, but extremism & propaganda still is. The media, politicians & the public should be taught to ask questions & hold govts to account. Plus, if you talk about South America, you have to bring up cartels & the only answer to that is decriminalisation & legalisation (which too many people are ignorant & uncomfortable with).

I've been a fan of the channel for many months now and this video was a big surprise to say the least. I'm Ecuadorian-Chilean and grew up surrounded by many of Guayasamín works. And my family had to (thankfully had an early opportunity) flee Chile after the Golpe de Estado '73. Ecuador has some incredible artists, skilled painters unknown to the world who sell absolute master pieces for $20 on a park. They are artisans who are not involved with the mainstream art world. But if anyone ever gets the chance to visit Ecuador, please take a walk through the artisanal markets of Otavalo and the art fair of El Ejido, Quito.

I mean, if you were going to pick a day to strike out against a government that has been known to oppress governments that don't match their ideal and would take away their shadow power over the region... and has been acting similarly in your own region... what day would you choose? Not condoning terrorism, btw. Killing innocent people to send a message to people in power is not kosher. But, obviously, the US government is not innocent.

Warning: You’re about to read a LOT. American here. They love to teach us early colonial America all throughout elementary and middle school, which gets *really* repetitive. We don't get past that until high school. In the meantime, we do learn of some atrocities but only domestically, such as slavery and what we did to Native Americans. 4 years of highschool, and 2 years where we actually have history class and not social studies, compared to all of the other years goes by fast, especially when lessons are crammed into an 8-class schedule with an 8-hour school day. Thus, for many, history is something to check off on a student's to-do list and not as a place of learning. Standardized tests have also hindered us since the teachers have to follow what they need to teach; however, if they don't teach, then they will give you assignments to make sure you can barely pass a test so they don't get fired for failing all of their students. If someone paid any attention, the lessons are mainly over post-Reconstruction, including Progressive Era, Great Depression, the World Wars, Cold War (aka us vs. communism), Civil Rights movements and minority cultures in America, wars in the Middle East, domestic and foreign terrorism, and today's politics. There is no doubt that schools are biased towards America being put in a better light when talking about others, but they think it can be balanced out by talking about the negatives caused by ourselves. The best bet is going to college where classes have more time and are more focused. Good professors are thought-provoking and, more often than not, love to tell you about American atrocities upon other countries. In addition, there will be assignments that require you to research a specific event in history, so it's interesting to take it upon ourselves to learn something schools did not teach us about. Still, that's only for those who believe that history class actually matters, as the class is a requirement for undergrad. But I am sure you are aware that there will be people who drop out during high school or who are uninterested in taking on a higher education. It's not surprise that Americans do not know much about history because we are made to hate it.

Can assume how horrifying this might be for the Chileans in '73.... to see, helplessly, their own resources getting unjustly used by the foreign capitalists. Hailing from one of the countries of South Asian region, I know it is painful, but it exceeds its limit when we see the mongers to be none but our own so-called nationalists whom we once elected with a hope that they would bring forth a 'better tomorrow' in a given time. It makes me wonder and shiver with horror to think the monstrous tendency of consuming has not effaced yet, it changes its facets to continue to thrive through time, sucking people's blood mercilessly! This is that kind of epoch-making painting that helps us, the oppressed ones, to distinguish the impostors and decide what we should do against their totalitarian aggression. Although it is a painting depicting pain, anxiety and helplessness, it, therefore, also stands for a promise extended to the youth of all countries, irrespective of time and space,... for a hope to cherish in our hearts,... a hope that ensures us the resistance will persist until the oppression perishes!

As an Ecuadorian, I am absolutely amazed by your knowledge on (probably) Ecuador's most influential painter as well as your research on Latin American late history. These things are often overlooked by the rest of the world, no matter how rich our history and culture can be, so it's been great seeing this unexpected essay on world-famous social criticism art and its link to foreign politics and internal issues that only evolve to the modern world. Art will always find its way to say what it has to.

One of my wife's favourite artists. Guayasamin referred to many abusive situations in South America. Besides the Chile paintings, he also made a lot of artwork related to the work in the mines back from the time of the Spanish colony period (like Potosi), the Spanish Civil War, and other periods with strife. It really makes the suffering of these victims universally understandable.

As a Chilean, it hurts me a lot remembering what happened to my relatives during the 73' - 90' times. And the tragedy is that many politicians glorify the figure of Pinochet as a "saviour" that fight against communism today. Indeed, there are many twitts from far-right people asking to get rid of Boric (former president) and make "Chile great again" (ah, the irony) as Pinochet "did" back in the day. They may be bots, but we have to remember those bots are made to change public opinion, and there's people wanting to put that narrative on our current social context. September 4th, 2022. Around 62% of citizens voted against the new proposal for constitution. Made by Chileans and not politicians (in general). We are still under the regime of Pinochet's constitution. I'm fine if you voted for keep the old constitution. But this was our moment to leave the pain behind and build again our hopes with the people, for the people by the people... Now, we don't know what is going to happen with this social/political process... But one thing is sure, we aren't going to progress of we keep and stand by that document. And you know? 18th of September is "Fiestas patrias" a way we Chileans celebrate the beginning of the independence.

Thank you for this video. It is really interesting to see how educations differs in various countries. I am Colombian, and thus have learned a lot about how the US and other powerful countries have come to manipulate history for their own interests. Some examples of this have been the Bananeras Masacre in my country and the creation of paramilitary groups, which was also aided by the US. What I also love about this piece (without taking away the original intention of the artist) is that this same shock, terror and disbelief when seeing the suffering of your country and your people is felt by so many throughout the world (and throughout history), making this painting even more resonant and relevant than originally intended. Right now, aside from Latin America, countries like Iran, Palestine, Afghanistan and so many more also come to mind. P.S. Learning of this piece and how it relates to Chile's history is shocking. I am sure I will never forget it. Appreciate it that you talk about international artists and issues.

I lived in Santiago Chile in 1996 and the people there knowing that we were Americans still treated us like they had known us their whole life’s and they took us into their homes and treated us with the upmost humility and friendship. Looking back on it and the fact that the terror of what happened only ended six years earlier makes me feel conflicted to weather they did that out of fear or friendship now considering the circumstances but I’m sure it was a little bit of both. Chilean people are amazing people and it makes me sick what our government has done to so many different countries throughout the years.

But honestly I think they treated you well because at the end of the day you had nothing to with it, and I personally think that should not hate each other for the decisions that those that have the power make, I am thankfull that you shared your story and empathize with our people and I'm also really glad that you had a good impression of chileans.
