Pbs Learning Media: Judge and the General: Human Rights Abuses Around the World

Curated by ACT

Chileans remember the plight of political prisoners who were "disappeared" during Pinochet's regime. Judge Juan Guzman talks about writing rejections of appeals to investigate the disappearances earlier in his career. Students should discuss why some people felt compelled to act in the face of injustice while others, such as Judge Guzman earlier in his career, didn't seem to recognize what was happening. [6:34]
