Award-winning photojournalists Bill Gentile and Robert Nickelsberg began their careers reporting on the Cold War struggles that embroiled Central America in the 1980’s and 1990’s — a time when long-standing economic disparities and deep political divides erupted into irregular warfare throughout the region. On July 27, USIP hosted Gentile, Nickelsberg and José Luis Sanz for a reflection on the legacy of Cold War-era conflicts in Central America.
