This stark poster shows military boots and rifles above, with a photograph of a victim of repression below, condemning Guatemala's military dictatorship during the country's civil war (1960-1996). The 1980s were particularly brutal years under military rulers like Romeo Lucas García and Efraín Ríos Montt, when tens of thousands of indigenous Guatemalans and political dissidents were killed. OSPAAAL's solidarity campaign called international attention to these human rights violations.
