Sharing via our friends at Teaching for Change: Our colleague Pat Goudvis has launched an extraordinary new student-friendly website on Central America called When We Were Young, There Was a War. Visitors are introduced to the powerful stories of two individuals from El Salvador and Guatemala. (Eventually there will be more.) Through short video clips, they describe the impact of the war on their lives when they were children and today. The website builds on a documentary film Goudvis made 20 years ago called If Mango Tree Could Speak. The film featured ten boys and girls (ages 12 to 15) growing up in the midst of war in Guatemala and El Salvador. They spoke candidly about war and peace, justice, ethnic identity, friendship, and love. Read here: bit.ly/1rlY70v Check the beautiful website here: centralamericanstories/ vimeo/104529904
