HistoryLUC's video: Ignacio Ellacur a at Loyola: Tape 1

@Ignacio Ellacuría at Loyola: Tape 1
In 1986, Loyola awarded Ignacio Ellacuría, S.J. with an honorary doctorate of laws. While in Chicago for the ceremony, he gave a series of press conferences on the current political state of El Salvador under President Duarte, that country’s first civilian president after a decade of military rule. These tapes document Ellacuría’s few days at Loyola, from the moment he arrived to the final conferral of an honorary degree. In this clip, filmed during the car ride to Loyola from the airport, Ellacuría reflects on El Salvador’s current president, José Napoleon Duarte. He explains that the president is disillusioned because he believes he has control over the country when, according to Ellacuría, it is the Army and U.S. government who call the shots. Discussion soon turns to the release of President Duarte’s kidnapped daughter Ines and the upper hand enjoyed by the Salvadoran military.
