08 Oct / An Ordinary Person’s Guide to Empire by Arundhati Roy [in AsianWeek]
“So may I clarify that tonight I speak as a subject of the American empire? I speak as a slave who presumes to criticize her king,” Roy says in “Instant-Mix Imperial Democracy (Buy One, Get One Free),” one of six essays/transcribed speeches in Roy’s latest anti-war, anti-empire treatise. This one is a must-read.
