The Dulles brothers & legacy of US interventions in Guatemala, Iran, Congo, Indonesia & beyond →

Consider listening to this interview with author Stephen Kinzer - a refresher course on US interventions around the world on behalf of U.S. and western economic interests.

Kinzer focuses particularly on brothers John Foster and Allen Dulles, at the time heads of the State Department and CIA. Both should be considered war criminals.

The discussion focuses on the on-going, devastating legacies today of these U.S. interventions.

The work and struggles that Rights Action supports and chips away at in Guatemala are directly related to the U.S. military coup in 1954 that was orchestrated by the State Department and CIA – at the time headed by the Dulles brothers.

Keep sending copies of Rights Action information (and that of other solidarity groups/ NGOs) to family and friends, your networks, politicians and media outlets, asking: ‘When will there be binding legal and political accountability for how our governments, companies and investment firms help cause, benefit from and turn a blind eye to corruption and impunity, and to poverty, repression environmental harms in countries like Honduras and Guatemala (and beyond)?’

Rights Action (US & Canada)
Since 1995, Rights Action funds land and environment, justice and human rights defense struggles in Guatemala and Honduras. Rights Action provide emergency relief funds (Covid19, hurricanes, victims of repression, etc), and works to hold accountable the U.S. and Canadian governments, multi-national companies, investors and banks (World Bank, etc.) that help cause and profit from exploitation and poverty, repression and human rights violations, environmental harms, corruption and impunity in Honduras and Guatemala.
