Our tour guide Hugo... giving a not-so straightforward accounting of what happened in 1973. Almost as if Chileans are retelling, for themselves? a 50:50 version of events. For those of my generation, hard to forget the televised image of bombers dropping bombs on Salvador Allende in Pinochet's coup d'etat... I don't really see how to "spin" that!
I am looking forward (with some dread hesitation) to seeing the museum on the early Pinochet era. I am in Chile for the week with a great group of Santa Clara University MBA students. I'll try to see some libraries while I am here, too!
