The 1980s were a time of war El Salvador. The government openly attacked its citizens. Repression. Murder. Massacres.
Radio Venceremos broadcasted twice a day. And it was a voice of truth. A voice of reason. A voice of resistance amid the violence and the government repression and the military bloodshed. They spoke truth to power. They offered hope to the masses—the people praying for change. Praying that El Salvador could be different. That one day they would not have to live in fear.
This is episode 63 of Stories of Resistance—a podcast produced by
