Author Tony Campolo endorses "Return to El Salvador"

“The Bible tells us that “none of us liveth to himself, and no man dies to himself.” We are connected to the sufferings of others, and this film will demonstrate how we have been connected to the sufferings of the people of El Salvador through our unquestioned support of the U.S. foreign policies.

Three teachers murdered in El Salvador

From our friends at SHARE El Salvador:

"On Monday evening, April 19th, two teachers and the director of El Ángel school in San Juan Opico, municipality neighborhing San Pablo Tacachico, were kidnapped, shot and killed. Classes were immediately suspended and marches took place in the area to protest ongoing violence and impunity. Indignation and fear are palpable." Click here for the full article.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu endorses "Return to El Salvador"

"Director Jamie Moffett and Return to El Salvador force us to acknowledge one of the most unjust class wars in the western hemisphere. It examines how the plantation system imposed by colonial powers on indigenous Salvadorans contributed to the poverty driven wars of the 1980s and the current day economic struggles that continue to beset a small densely populated nation. More importantly, perhaps, Return to El Salvador shows us how an era of hope is being perpetuated by life-giving elections, bold social advocacy, and the steady grassroots work of church leaders."
