Episode description

Salvador Allende was elected president of Chile in 1970. Within three years, he was dead. In Part One of this episode, we witness Allende making powerful enemies in the Nixon administration and among Chilean conservatives. Through economic woes and civil unrest, Allende maintained his radical politics. But those lined up against him would never let a socialist rule in Chile.
