September 15, 2011 – Hour 2

On September 11, 1973, the Chilean military overthrew the democratically-elected government of President Salvador Allende and established a military dictatorship led by General Augusto Pinochet.

 

Maria Stella Dabancen and Pedro Alejandro Matta, Chilean student leaders and human rights activists who were imprisoned and tortured by the military government, join us to discuss the atrocity they lived through and their ongoing work in support of human rights.
