Memorias de Uchuraccay

Overview

More than 36 years have passed since January 26, 1983, when eight journalists and two farmers were massacred in Uchuraccay, a previously unknown village in the highlands of Ayacucho, Peru. The annual commemoration of the crime provides an opportunity to revisit this case, address some aspects that have remained in the shadows, and also see how it has endured in the collective memory or the memories of those directly or indirectly affected by the tragedy.
