There are many decent links that permit you a quick glance at what is happening in Latin America. This is one of many and provides a glimpse of what is happening south of The United States. Our news agencies do not provide us with much in the way of global news, though it is more available thanks to the internet.
It is beneficial to understand what happens in the world, outside of our own homes, neighborhoods, states, and national boundary. It is interesting to view other cultures and to assess our similarities, differences, and relationship with one another. The world has changed and as such we no longer live isolation. The ripples that pebbles make in the water here are felt and seen elsewhere in the world. Our interdependence with one another (and at times our animosities) require that we know, understand, and respect one another. The first step in accomplishing that is to allow them into our consciousness. Then, how can we learn from one another, appreciate our differences, and live peacefully?
