N2  - "In this lucid, passionate book Penny Lernoux demonstrates that the metamorphosis of the traditionally conservative Catholic Church is the most significant development in Latin America since the Cuban revolution. From El Salvador to Argentina, concerned clergy are speaking out, and governmental response has been swift and ruthless-hundreds of activists have become martyrs to the cause of human rights.
Cry of the People is a compelling account of what is happening all over Latin America today, based on accounts of both witnesses and victims. It is also a powerful indictment of U.S. policy there and of our silent complicity in the activities of totalitarian regimes."
