Fr. Roy Bourgeois is the founder and key spokesperson of the international, inter-generational movement to close the U.S. Army School of the Americas (SOA/WHINSEC). The SOA, frequently dubbed the School of Assassins, has left a trail of blood and suffering in every country where its graduates have returned.  Hear Fr. Roy speak powerfully and from personal experience about why the SOA/WHINSEC must be closed and how everyday citizens can promote human rights and social justice.
