A hemispheric sojourn from Santiago, Chile, to Ottowa, Canada, We Can Change the World captures the passions and motivations of largely unknown actors through the civil rights, anti-Vietnam War and Women's Liberation movements, the Cuban and Nicaraguan Revolutions, the Chilean Coup, the Salvadoran civil war, the South Africa anti-apartheid campaign, the struggle for Mayan cultural survival, human rights initiatives, and more. We Can Change the World is both homage and cautionary tale, bringing to life everyday people engaged in extraordinary acts, some noble and worthy of celebration, others tragically misguided. It is a unique revisiting of many of the defining moments of our times.
