Compañero

Compañero: the International Magazine of Guatemala’s Guerrilla Army of the Poor.
San Francisco: Solidarity Publications, 1982.

The Guerrilla Army of the Poor (EGP – Ejército Guerrillero de los Pobres) was a left-wing movement, which commanded significant support among the indigenous Mayan people during the Guatemalan Civil War. Human rights abuses by government forces encouraged international solidarity with the insurgents. A year after this edition of the magazine, the EGP was forced to accept an amnesty offered by the Guatemalan government.
