"Inside the Americas" offers in-depth reports and analysis from our extensive network of correspondents throughout the region on the most important developments in Latin America. Today, April 9, marks the 67th anniversary of the death of Colombian Liberal Party politician and social justice advocate Jorge Elecer Gaitan. Many Colombians still hold fond memories of Gaitan and feel that had he not been assassinated, the country might have been spared the five decade civil war. Since 2001, the anniversary of Gaitan's assassination has been designated National Day of Memory and Solidarity with the victims of the country's armed conflict. teleSUR
