Mystery and celebration are the twin themes of Latin Pulse this week. The mystery is provided through an analysis of the complex case regarding the death of Alberto Nisman, a special prosecutor in Argentina. The program sorts through the case linked to the bombing of a Jewish community center in the 1990s. The celebration theme comes in the form of Carnival in Brazil. The news segment of the program discusses how the Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team has cast doubt on the explanation of the Mexican government regarding 43 missing students, a case that has galvanized a protest movement in Mexico.The program includes in-depth interviews with:
Fulton Armstrong*, of American University's Center for Latin American & Latino Studies (CLALS); and
Rachel Glickhouse, author of the Rio Gringa blog.
Executive Producer: Rick Rockwell;
