Birkbeck Voices 13: October 2013 - Remembering the Chilean coup 40 years on

Gloria Miqueles – a Chilean activist and Birkbeck alumna – shares her extraordinary and inspirational account of surviving prison and torture during Augusto Pinochet’s brutal regime. She explains her memories of the coup in 1973, and her involvement in the resistance. Miqueles later moved to London in exile and studied for an MSc in Development Studies at Birkbeck. She recently spoke about her own experiences and those of other women involved in the resistance at a conference at Birkbeck called Chilean women: 40 years on. http://www.bbk.ac.uk/news/birkbeck-voices-podcast/birkbeck-voices-podcast-remembering-the-chilean-coup-40-years-on
