Title: Bryan B Interview, May 16, 2020
Date: May 16, 2020
Creator: Bryan B; Dan Kerr
Description: Bryan B., a PhD student at American University, shares how COVID has impacted his life. He talks about moving back in with his parents, and how it's nice to spend time with them, but he needs to be careful since his father has cancer. He discusses how the virus has impacted his social justice work, and reflects on how everyone's experience during this time is different and reflects how power and privilege work in our society. He shares how COVID-19 is the filter that reveals how we are currently fractured, and relates to the systematic devaluing of black, brown, Asian, and female bodies. Bryan talks about how the work of DC journalist Reginald Black has kept him going, and gives him hope that there are people we can support. Finally, he hopes that this can be the moment that healthcare for all becomes a thing we can all agree on. He believes that if we can't agree on that in this time, our country is a failed state.

Description: Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa interviews President Álvaro Alfredo Magaña Borja at the Presidential Palace in San Salvador, El Salvador, May 10, 1984. Vargas Llosa was reporting on the 1984 Salvadoran presidential elections for Time magazine. José Napoleón Duarte of the Partido Demócrata Cristiano, Christian Democratic Party, PDC, was elected president on May 12, 1984. This victory can be largely attributed to the more than $3 million in aid, both overt and covert, provided by the United States to finance the elections in an effort to produce a moderate reformist government compliant with Washington's interests.

Title: U.S. Embassy Displays Captured FMLN Weapons
Date: 1984-03-17
Creator: Nickelsberg, Robert
Description: United States Embassy Public Affairs Officer Don Hamilton, right, shows CBS TV reporter Mike O'Connor, center left, three Soviet or Chinese-made rocket propelled grenades, RPGs, captured from the Frente Farabundo Martí para la Liberación Nacional, Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front, FMLN, in San Salvador, El Salvador, March 17, 1984. Throughout the conflict, the United States exaggerated concerns that the Soviet Union, Cuba, and Nicaragua were funding and supplying the Salvadoran guerrillas with weapons and strategic military assistance. Fears that the Soviet Union and its allies in the Western Hemisphere were actively aiding the guerrillas fit within the U.S.-purported definition of the Salvadoran conflict as a hemispheric Cold War battle, though it certainly did not reflect the reality on the ground.

Title: Dutch Human Rights Investigative Team Leaving Camino Real Hotel In San Salvador
Date: 1982-03-22
Creator: Nickelsberg, Robert
Description: A group of human rights investigators from Holland leave the El Camino Real Hotel in San Salvador, El Salvador, March 22, 1982. The group came to investigate the death of four Dutch journalists shot and killed by Salvadoran security forces while they were pursuing an interview with leftist guerrillas from the Fuerzas Populares de Liberación, FPL, in the Chalatenango department. The Salvadoran government and the United States embassy in El Salvador denied knowledge of the ambush, claiming that the journalists were caught in an ongoing firefight between guerrilla soldiers and the military. This fact was later refuted with witness testimony in the 1993 publication of the United Nations Truth Commission for El Salvador.
