Description:
Graffiti in support of leftist insurgent groups and anti-government posters collect on a wall in the University of San Carlos campus in Guatemala City, Guatemala, March 1, 1982. The university served as an active space of resistance throughout the domestic armed conflict, challenging the militarization and violence of the state and its U.S.-sponsored imperialistic policies. The Guatemalan government and its Western allies labeled all university protests as communist insurgency to justify the murders and forced disappearances of USAC students and faculty committed by the state.
