An Evening to Remember Ben Linder and Learn How His Work Continues
Ben Linder, a mechanical engineer from Portland, was murdered 20 years ago in the remote mountains of northern Nicaragua. He was one U.S. citizen among thousands of Nicaraguans killed by the "contras," a guerrila force armed and directed by the U.S. government in its effort to overturn Nicaragua's Sandanista revolution. The story of this gentle engineer, who also used his skills as a juggler and unicyclist to promote health care campaigns, reached millions of Americans, allowing them to better understand the enormous suffering caused by Washington's terrorist war.
