A black and white photograph of three Salvadoran men standing in front of a stone building, each looking in a different direction.

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.
