The City of Cambridge is a sister city to San Salvador. The community
members who visited the city are back to report what they learned and
to discuss the bonds they built. Also, there will be a commemoration
for Archbishop Romero, killed by School of Americas assassins, along
with a showing of "Enemies of War."

El Salvador is at the center of the impact of privatization now being
directed at education and health care. The Salvadoran people -
teachers, campesinos, women, students, health care workers, delegates
of the word - are responding with resistance, insight and
collaboration. In the face of new government repression, they need
our help and we need their understanding. Come and hear their
experiences and observations.
