Cialuna - Emma Goldman's "Guajira" with Choreography by local Flamenco Treasure: Susana Di Palma
“It does not require much wisdom to trace every war back to a similar cause.
Let us take our own Spanish-American war, supposedly a great and patriotic
event in the history of the United States. How our hearts burned with indignation against the atrocious Spaniards!
True, our indignation did not flare up spontaneously. It was nurtured by months of newspaper agitation,
and long after Butcher Weyler had killed off many noble Cubans and outraged many Cuban women.
Still, in justice to the American Nation be it said, it did grow indignant and was willing to fight, and that it
fought bravely. But when the smoke was over, the dead buried, and the cost of the war came back to the
people in an increase in the price of commodities and rent—that is, when we sobered up from our patriotic
spree—it suddenly dawned on us that the cause of the Spanish-American war was the consideration of the
price of sugar; or, to be more explicit, that the lives, blood, and money of the American people were used to
protect the interests of American capitalists, which were threatened by the Spanish government. That this is
not an exaggeration, but is based on absolute facts and figures, is best proven by the attitude of the American
government to Cuban labor. When Cuba was firmly in the clutches of the United States, the very soldiers sent
to liberate Cuba were ordered to shoot Cuban workingmen during the great cigarmakers' strike, which took
place shortly after the war.” ― Emma Goldman, Anarchism and other essays

My name is Immigrant” - Wang Ping Narration
This piece is a song for the plight and pride of immigrants around the globe, including the U.S., China, Syria, Honduras, Guatemala, Nepal, Tibet and other places. Whether they pull up their roots to flee war, the rising sea or drought, for religious freedom and freedom of speech, or simply to seek a better life, immigrants are the frontiers of civilization. They are a force of nature, like salmon, monarchs, trees, water, and mountains, moving with rivers, the earth and universe. Migration is the signature of life - no immigrants, no economy; no immigration, no civilization; no migration, no life. We are all immigrants.
