Looking Back at 1800 Day

The British East India Company has taken Bengal after the Battle of Plassey and the wealth is draining out. The muslin weavers are being forced out of business. The Permanent Settlement locks land ownership into British-friendly landlord hands. The famine of 1770 killed a third of the population. The next famine is coming.

Youm al-Thawra al-Fateh

El aniversario del golpe de 1969 que llev贸 a Gadafi al poder. Bajo Gadafi, esta era la mayor festividad del a帽o, con desfiles militares, discursos y la Bandera Verde de la Yamahiriya. Tras la revoluci贸n de 2011, la festividad fue abolida, y el 1 de septiembre es ahora un d铆a de controversia: algunos libios recuerdan el golpe de 1969 como el comienzo de 42 a帽os de dictadura, mientras que otros recuerdan los programas sociales, la educaci贸n gratuita y la riqueza petrolera que Gadafi distribuy贸. El d铆a no es festivo, pero no est谩 olvidado.
