Currently juggling four non-fiction reads that I'm moving through quickly

Just finished A Century of Revolution, which is an excellent advanced text. It is a collection of several essays examining revolutionary and counter-revolutionary violence in Latin America throughout the twentieth century. It is inspired by the work of historian Arno Mayer, two of whose works I've recently acquired as well.

Greg Grandin's Empire's Workshop, on how American Cold War policy in Latin America shaped the Bush Administration's modern "free market crusader" imperial foreign policy. It was written in 2006 and so very much reflects the time. TBH it mostly retreads ground I've already covered.

Grandin's The Last Colonial Massacre is on deck.

At home I'm slowly working through Parenti's Inventing Reality (the bloody paper it's printed on ruins my highlighters quickly).

I'm also rapidly moving through Stephen F Cohen's final work (he died this year) War With Russia?, which is a compilation of editorials and articles he wrote between 2014-2019 for non-mainstream news outlets ferociously criticizing American foreign policy toward Russia and the Russiagate neo-McCarthyite hysteria. If you want to understand the new Cold War that has been escalating between the US and Russia for at least the last 12 years, I strongly recommend you consult Cohen's works as they offer insights you'll never see in more mainstream sources.
