Violence and Hope in El Salvador
In a country as violent as El Salvador, many have given up on political solutions to gang warfare...
In 2015, El Salvador's murder rate was the highest in Central America, with an average of over 15 homicides per day. Gangs control the streets in a country where police, soldiers and politicians have proved ineffective. For her project " Violence and Hope in El Salvador," Lauren Markham reports from the capital, San Salvador, on the country's violence, as well as prospects of meaningful change.
