from the "lessons of history" dept.

The BBC World Service broadcast today part one of an excellent radio documentary on Guatemala's civil war.
In Guatemala four years ago, 80 million documents were discovered in a warehouse. They contain evidence of police atrocities during Guatemala's 36 year long civil war. Gerry Northam investigates the story of the archive’s chance discovery.
The Atrocity Archives (part one) runs 23 minutes. Listen to it HERE or download it HERE.
