Come hear Andres Conteris tell the story of his 129 days inside the Brazilian Embassy under siege with Pres. Zelaya, after the Honduran coup. Andres was the last English speaking journalist inside the Embassy, staying until the day that Zelaya was allowed to leave.
Now returned to San Francisco, Andres will tell us about those months within the Embassy, and inform us of the most recent developments in Honduras.
Andres Conteris is a Latin American correspondent with Democracy Now! and Flashpoints, has lived in Honduras, and has been involved in human rights activism for many years. Andres will also be leading a human rights delegation to Honduras later in March, organized through the Task Force on the Americas. Proceeds from the March 10 presentation will benefit the Honduras Delegation Scholarship Fund.
Sponsored by the Bay Area Latin America Solidarity Coalition (BALASC).
