Latin American Federation of Writers’ Associations' Caracas Declaration, 1985, forwarded to the Yugoslav Writers’ Union. It condemns US “aggressive imperialism” in Nicaragua, as well as the “de facto occupation” of Honduras, Costa Rica, and Panama, and supports the independence of Puerto Rico.

Thrilled to have been able to give Zoran Minderović a copy of Nonaligned Imagination--he contributed to its writing by sharing the 1950s diary that his father, writer Čedomir Minderović, kept in India. In the photo: Čedomir and Amrita Pritam, Indian writer who visited Yugoslavia on three occasions.

Dara Janeković, one of the few Yugoslav women correspondents reporting from Asia and Africa. The French paramilitary OAS tried to assassinate her because of her reporting on the Algerian War. She interviewed a range of prominent politicians, from Ahmed Ben Bella to Indira Gandhi.

My favorite archival find when writing 'Nonaligned Imagination' was a report by Petar Guberina about the 1959 Congress of Black Writers and Artists in Rome, which he attended as a Yugoslav observer. He discusses a controversial speech by a Dr Omar, Fanon’s code name at several conferences.
