And revolutionary British novelist, screenwriter and literary critic John Berger has died Monday. Berger is most famous for the 1972 book and television series “Ways of Seeing.” He won the Booker Prize that same year. This is John Berger speaking in 1972 about his reaction to winning the Booker Prize and how he planned to give half the money to the Black Panthers.

John Berger: “The prize is given by Bookers, Booker-McConnell, who are a firm who have extensive trading interests in the Caribbean for 130 years. The extreme poverty is the direct consequence of the exploitation of companies like Bookers and others. And so I intend, as a revolutionary writer, to share this prize with people in and from the Caribbean, people who are involved in a struggle to resist such exploitation and eventually to expropriate companies like Bookers. I am actually going to give half the prize to the London-based Black Panther movement.”

That’s writer John Berger speaking in 1972. He died Monday at his home in a Paris suburb at the age of 90.
