  • On September 11, 1973, the first socialist president of Chile, Salvador Allende, was overthrown in a military coup d'etat. Guest Joyce Horman shares the struggles that she and her husband faced as Americans in Chile during this eruption of violence. She also talks about the United States government's involvement in the coup and her fight for justice for her husband Charles, who was ultimately killed after being taken captive by the Chilean military. His memory lives on through the Charles Horman Truth Foundation, an organization which provides informational materials and seminars to the public, international human rights students, and prosecutors of crimes pertaining to these matters.

      You won't see Americans interested in what really matters . Right now they're more concerned about Britney Spears . Now if Britney Spears did a TikTok or UA-cam video about the coup then they might listen

      It's because most users of You Tube are not interested in history, they only want to erase it. Usually most people under 30 these days.

    Wow, all these years later she continues to carry the torch for her husband. She worked so hard to seek justice and truth for Charles. Make sure and see the movie “Missing,” an incredibly powerful and moving story.

    The simple truth is that Charles Horman died because he knew too much. He was the Edward Snowden or the Julian Assange of his time.

      Horman was working in finding the truth about what happened to General Schneider who was murdered by the CIA 3 years before the Chile Coup www.fff.org/2014/06/03/the-cias-murder-of-rene-schneider/
      Then in Viña del Mar he found out that the US was involved in the coup that overthrew Pres. Allende. He started to connect the dots and saw what was going on. For sure he was going to make it public and Nixon and Kissinger did not approve Horman's actions. We know the rest of the story.

      Oh , I got very angry watching MISSING with Sissy Spacek and Jack Lemmon . Our government was involved with the coup . What was sad was when MISSING was mentioned at the Oscars the audience was afraid to applaud the movie when it was mentioned . And again it made me angry . If Hollywood really is and has been liberal it would and should have gotten a huge applause . The Oscars event happened during Grand Wizard Ronald Reagan fascist regime .

      It's propaganda just as intelligence agencies create...
      You are mistaking this for simple misunderstandings... But it's intentionally forwarding a false narrative
