    Was the 1983 U.S. invasion of Grenada necessary?  What was 
its impact and what did we win?  GRENADA REVISITED looks back at  
what pecipitated the deployment of over 5,000 U.S. Troops to  
this small Caribbean island and examines the consequences today. 
This program, from the national public television series,  
AMERICA'S DEFENSE MONITOR, traces the shifting political winds  
in Grenada from the 1970's up to the U.S. military intervention. 
A variety of views are presented on the revolutionary government 
of Maurice Bishop, his relationship with Cuba, and how the U.S. 
government may have contributed to his overthrow by extreme 
leftists, leading to the U.S. invasion.  Among those interviewed  
are the current Grenadian Prime Minister, members of the Bishop 
government, a former U.S. ambassador to the region, and citizens 
of Grenada.

    When 27,000 U.S. troops invaded Panama on December 20, 1989, 
it was the largest U.S. military operation since Vietnam.  This 
program, from the  AMERICA'S DEFENSE MONITOR series, reviews the 
events leading up to the invasion, how the attack was carried  
out, the resulting casualties, and the impact on life in Panama 
today.  Regional experts and diplomats discuss the U.S. govern- 
ment's justification for military action and probe other less 
overt motivating factors.  Observations about Panamanian civil- 
ian casualties, deaths from "friendly fire," and limits on media 
bear striking comparisons to the Gulf War.  Featured interviews  
include: U.S. Representative Charles Rangel, Panamanian Ambas- 
sador Eduardo Vallarino, Latin American affairs expert Mark 
Falcoff, and National Public Radio's John Dinges.

UNHEARD VOICES       1990 * 16 min.

    For 10 years civil war has raged in El Salvador.  Yet rarely 
do we hear the voices of those who have suffered the most: the 
children, who make up nearly 1/2 the country's population.  Many 
live in orphanages or in refugee camps.  Others simply live in 
poverty, with little chance of ever receiving a basic education. 
UNHEARD VOICES is a poignant, emotional look at these young, for- 
gotten victims.  Through often graphic footage shot by American 
firefighter and former Green Beret Ray Gatchalian, we witness the 
most tragic consequences of the war fueled by $4.5 billion in 
United States military assistance since 1980.  But the voices of 
these children are not cries of despair.  They are cries of hope, 
a call for peace, and a plea not to be forgotten.

    BUILDING PEACE IN THE MIDST OF WAR is an inspiring document- 
ary showing how individuals and communities can make a difference 
in Central America.  Cambridge (MA) and San Jose Las Flores (El 
Salvador) are sister cities.  The people of San Jose are re- 
building their village -- schools, clinics, and homes --all des- 
troyed by the Salvadoran military in an effort to create "free 
fire zones."  Over 75% of US aid to El Salvador is military as- 
sistance.  But this sister cities program is a people-to-people 
exchange.  Traveling from Cambridge, a US delegation delivered  
over $10,000 worth of milk, medicine and building supplies.  The 
personal testimonies of both the North Americans and the Salva- 
dorans bring this story to life.  An excellent organizing tape.

    Over 350 teachers have been killed or "disappeared" in  
troubled El Salvador since 1979.  Many teachers are labelled 
terrorists or subversives by the Salvadoran government or the 
country's "death squads" because they are attempting to educate 
the poor.  WHERE TEACHERS ARE TARGETS follows a group of Canad- 
ian teachers who visit El Salvador to learn more about the dif- 
ficult realities facing teachers in this war-torn country.  The 
Canadians unexpectedly witness the "disappearance" of a Salva- 
doran, are themselves followed by possible "death squad" vehi- 
cles, and organize to free a teacher who is captured during the 
visit.  A vivid, sobering look at life in El Salvador by a for- 
mer Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) newsman.

     Many Americans are concerned about U.S. policy in Central 
America.  This provocative, broadcast-quality video examines the 
thoughts and motivations of a range of Americans who are doing 
something to change it.  Their moving personal stories serve as  
powerful inspiration for those not involved.  Featured are former 
Air Force Captain Brian Wilson, who was run over by a train dur- 
ing protest at Concord Naval Weapons Station; a Presbyterian min- 
ister involved in escorting Salvadorans back to their villages;  
a retired social worker and kindergarten teacher who developed  
a slideshow based on their trip to Nicaragua; and a single par- 
ent whose temple has adopted Guatemalan refugees.  PEACE BEGINS 
HERE is a useful bridge to those who disagree with our govern- 
ment's policy in Central America, but feel powerless or are un- 
involved.

                     Human Rights Commission/USA 

      >VHS Sale $35.  Rent $25. 

    An eye-opening look at the troubling human rights situation 
in Guatemala, where as many os 100,000 people were killed ar dis- 
appeared, and one million displaced by war in the 1980's.  THE 
DARK LIGHT OF DAWN provides a history of human rights abuses  
under the former military government and describes the progress 
towards correcting these violations under the current civilian 
government.  The film highlights the efforts of the award-winning 
GRUPO DE APOYO MUTUO (Mutual Support Group) to stop the contin- 
uing abuses, to locate the thousands that disappeared, and to  
prosecute those responsible for the earlier assasinations.

GUAZAPA: THE FACE OF WAR IN EL SALVADOR    Revised 1987 * 37 min. 
--------------------------------------- 
         Produced by Don North 

      >VHS Sale $35.  Rent $25. 

    A remarkable first-hand look at life and war in a rebel-con- 
trolled area of El Salvador by veteran war correspondent Don  
North.  GUAZAPA documents rebel soldiers and civilians working 
together to harvest crops, educate their children, and care for 
the sick and wounded.  North takes us along on a rebel attack 
against a National Guard outpost, and we witness the government's 
forceful counterattack, which causes a mass exodus of the Guaz- 
apa population.  The film's moving protrayal of daily life in  
El Salvador amidst constant warfare offers Americans a rare look 
at the human consequences of a war our government is helping to 
finance.

    RETURN TO AGUACAYO is a dramatic account of 450 displaced 
Salvadorans who attempt to return to their homes and farming 
cooperative in the Guazapa region of El Salvador, after hav- 
ing been forced to leave by the army. The unique footage was  
acquired by a member of a North American religious delegation 
which went to El Salvador in hopes of protecting the displaced  
>from attacks by the Armed Forces on their journey home.  The 
determination of the Salvadorans to return to their land, des- 
pite the destruction of their homes and the threat from the  
army, is a stirring example of unusual courage and a rare  
glimpse at the personal toll of the continuing war in El Salva- 
dor.  A good sequel to Don North's GUAZAPA. (Includes "Song of 
the Mes Grande Refugees.")

----------------------- 
         Produced by Mark Melchiorre 

      >VHS Sale $39.95  Rent $25. 

    VOICES OF THE VOICELESS is a moving portrait of the half mil- 
lion El Salvadora refugees who were driven to flee their country 
and live in the United States, many illegally.  The film drama- 
tically chronicles the U.S.-supported war which has forced them 
here and their struggles to survive in this country amidst pov- 
erty and constant fear of deportation.  The film draws its title 
the late Archbishop Oscar Romero who was an outspoken leader of 
the poor in El Salvador until his assasination, a voice for those 
silenced by fear of torture and death.  Filmed in El Salvador and 
a Los Angeles' refugee community, VOICES OF THE VOICELESS depicts 
a largely unacknowledged truth--the victims of the current war  
are here among us.  These refugees are eyewitnesses to the brutal 
repression that has resulted in the murder of over 44,000 El Sal- 
vadorans and in over a million more being driven into refugee  
camps.  Should they be forced to return, many will face the same 
fate.  This is their story.

Chomsky, on the "free" Nicaraguan elections of 1990:

[...] The most interesting point, however, is the third.  Suppose that
the USSR were to follow the U.S. model as the Baltic states declare
independence, organizing a proxy army to attack them from foreign
bases, training its terrorist forces to hit "soft targets" (health
centers, schools, etc.) so that the governments cannot provide social
services, reducing the economies to ruin through embargo and other
sanctions, and so on, in the familiar routine.  Suppose further that
when elections come, the Kremlin informs the population, loud and
clear, that they can vote for the CP or starve.  Perhaps some
unreconstructed Stalinist might call this a "free and fair election."
Surely no one else would.
