No one turned away for lack of funds.

Using a portion of the new documentary Argentina 30 years after the military coup, Ms. Isasa will present a background of the 1976 military coup and the state terror that followed.

Her presentation will also include her 2006 interview with Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! At that time her relentless efforts had netted eight people in jail and awaiting trial, including an ex-federal judge, an ex-assistant secretary for security of Santa Fe, and several ex-policemen (one of them a graduate of the School of the Americas).

Patricia will update us on the status of her case, describe how her life has changed since pursuing justice, and field questions from the audience.
