The Open Veins of Latin America is the story of 500 years of plunder following Columbus's first voyage and the region's most tragic events, from slavery and genocide of indigenous peoples to new economic colonization, neoliberalism and the falsification of trade rules. Shortly after the book was published in 1971, Eduardo Galeano, a Uruguayan journalist and writer, was exiled and his work, banned in several Latin American countries, became a cult classic.

Eduardo Galeano tells a story in which the protagonists are gold and silver, cocoa and coffee, cotton and rubber, oil and iron - the veins that run through the body of the entire continent - and in which scientific analysis is intertwined with the drama of a plundered people.
