Burn!
The history of Latin America is something in which many choose to oversee. Our world in which we live in is not mindful of the history. We are taught that people choose to forget its history and some never want to learn it. Many do not realize that the influences of Latin America are part of our systems, our cultures, our traditions in which we live in today. In this class I have learned about many themes in which why Latin American countries were established, and received their influences from. In the movie Burn by Gillo Pontecorvo the movie depicts many ways all our worlds are not that different than the other our world relates to one way or another for example, the Metropolis they …show more content…
In the movie in for example the character Sir William Walker was the main reason why ideas of revolts where happening they were not the cause, everyone could see clearly that the causes of these revolutions would be manipulation of the slaves undereducated minds, that many did not know how to use the power they were given.

The church was still a massive influence in the economy, but the church could not decide anymore. Before the revolt of their own Queimada became its own self-sufficient land this is what led them to revolt, because they needed to export and this happened in history also, in the Paraguay revolution the free trade that was from 1870-1893 which needed the trade to survive (Lecture, Burn). In economies, you need to trade no matter where you are at unless otherwise you have all the crops you need that you would not need to leave to another country to import the good. In the movie, it depicted what many had to do to see change, and that was revolting to see the change. Many fought for freedom, but many did not know the plans many had, and it was expected to
