NICARAGUA: An Endless Search for Truth

Abstract: 

Aryeh Neier reflects on his experience of Nicaragua's 1979 revolution and the photography of Susan Meisalas.

When I first saw Susan Meiselas’s photos of the 1978-1979 Sandinista Revolution in Nicaragua, I thought they looked different from any other photos I had seen. Viewing them afresh four decades later, they still look different.
