Legacy of Lies: From the Salvadoran Civil War to the U.S. Border Crisis

Over three decades, Robert Nickelsberg shot photos of insurgents and counter-insurgents in El Salvador, Iraq and Afghanistan for Time magazine. For this event, he will present B&W images of the Salvadoran civil war and go into what they tell us about the choices facing Salvadorans. U.S. support for a rightwing dictatorship not only motivated many to flee to the U.S., Nickelsberg will argue, but also laid the groundwork for present-day chaos at the southern border.
