TED-Ed: The rebel radio that brought down a war criminal | Diana Sierra Becerra

The video explores the El Mozote massacre in El Salvador, led by Colonel Monterrosa, and the subsequent denial by the US and Salvadoran governments. It delves into the historical context of military dictatorships supported by US aid, the formation of the FMLN, and the role of Radio Venceremos in the revolution. Monterrosa's obsession with destroying the radio station led to his downfall. The civil war ended in 1992, but structural inequalities and justice for war crimes remain unresolved. Survivors continue to fight for recognition and justice.
