in El Salvador as “Santiago,” Consalvi was born in Mérida,
Venezuela, and went to El Salvador in 1980 to join the revolutionary
struggle, establishing “Radio Venceremos,” a clandestine radio
station, that became the voice of the rebel guerrilla army, the FMLN,
denouncing the massive violation of human rights </span></font></font></font><span style="background: white none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; color: black;">committed</span><font color="#000000"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;"> by the

the war ended in a negotiated peace settlement, Consalvi turned his
attention to documenting the history and culture of El Salvador given
that so much of the historical record had been lost during the war.
The Museo de la Palabra y la Imagen, founded by Consalvi, has
gathered an important collection of archival material, supported
traveling exhibitions, and produced several documentary films.
The Museo’s exhibition dedicated to Salvadoran poet and writer
Roque Dalton (1935-1975) will be on display during Consalvi’s visit
at the newly inaugurated community center “Casa El Salvador” in
East Boston.</span></font></font></font></p>
