Description

In this graphic, thought-provoking book, Ed Griffin-Nolan depicts the experiences of Witness for Peace (WFP), a group of Americans who bore witness to the war in Nicaragua–an event that resulted within the killing and wounding of many innocent Central American civilians. Griffin-Nolan explains how WFP participants spent weeks within the war zones with a purpose to take note the affect of U.S. policy on simple people living, as one member of the group phrased it, “on the end of a gun barrel.” He describes how WFP participants labored to bring stories of war back to the USA, and how many of them lost their jobs or even their marriages within the process. He concludes by showing that the efforts of WFP saved lives and in all probability prevented “some other Vietnam” from developing in Central The usa.
