Many US Christians were profoundly moved by the liberation struggles in Central America in the 1980s. Most learned about the situation from missionaries who had witnessed the repression firsthand. Drawing on in-depth interviews, Nepstad offers an analysis of the experiences of religious leaders and church members in the solidarity movement.
