Fifteen years after the peace agreement that ended 20 years of civil war in El Salvador, human rights activist Ruben Zamora, who spoke on campus last Tuesday, is still working toward a more socially just society. Economic inequality and organized crime are the country’s chief problems. Still, Zamora, former vice president of the El Salvadoran legislative assembly from 1991 to 1994, remains hopeful. “If we were able to solve a war,” he said, “we can solve these things.” Zamora’s talk was sponsored by the Office of the University Chaplain and the School of International Service. —AF |
