On June 28th the Honduran military carried out a coup to stop the social movements from threatening the interests of the Honduran and U.S. business elite. Hundreds have been killed, raped, arrested and beaten for fighting to make another Honduras and another world possible.
Meanwhile in Venezuela the people's struggle is making tremendous gains. Hear from an Afro-Venezuelan leader working to make sure the Revolution taking place in Venezuela puts the struggle against racism front and center.
