- 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
- Leftist guerrillas from the Fuerzas Populares de Liberación, FPL, interrogate a family member involved in the paramilitary group Organización Democrática Nacionalista, National Democratic Organization, ORDEN, seated left, after a takeover of a nearby village in Santa Anita, El Salvador, February 22, 1981. ORDEN was established in the late 1960s with support from the United States Army Special Forces by General José Alberto Medrano, known as the father of Salvadoran counterinsurgency. ORDEN, along with the Agencia Nacional de Seguridad Salvadoreña, National Security Agency of El Salvador, ANSESAL, widely considered to be the origin of the death squads, were employed by the military to infiltrate and terrorize rural populations considered subversive to the regime. Although ORDEN was nominally disbanded in 1979, many of its members were folded into civil defense units who continued to use extrajudicial violence and torture to repress the civilian population throughout the armed conflict.
