Honoring Gerardi:  Pursuing Justice and Truth in Guatemala

On April 24, 1998, Bishop Juan Gerardi presented the report "Guatemala: Never Again" detailing accounts of murder, disappearances, massacres and torture.  Two days later, he was murdered.

To honor Bishop Gerardi, learn of the continuing struggle for justice and reconciliation, study the effects of CAFTA, and explore our role in demanding economic justice in Guatemala, CRLN and CMSA organized a 7-member delegation to Guatemala April 19-27, 2008.
