In a story that tells how a former guerrilla fighter against the repressive government of her native El Salvador during her formative years blossomed into a diplomatic representative of that Central American nation, Sandra E. Agreda will introduce her first book after having left that country's diplomatic corps.
The book signing and presentation will be held at Las Delicias Restaurant, 5550 Padre Island Hwy, Brownsville, at noon Saturday.
Agreda served as the first consul from El Salvador in the Rio Grande Valley.
It is a story filled with dramatic and heart-wrenching moments such as when she fought in the guerrilla war against the US-backed repressive military government of El Salvador, seeing her younger brother shot before her eyes by government soldiers, and – after defeating the repressive regime – going on to the university and joining the diplomatic corps to represent her country.
It was largely through her efforts that the plight of Central American immigrants in the Rio Grande Valley began to be addressed.

This woman needs to be indicted for cruel acts of terrorism inflicted upon citizens by her and her Gorilla group aka FLMN a communist terrorist group.
Her brother got killed more likely due to the affiliations with such terrorist activities.
She was old enough to make her choices and Now she is banking on a book that tells her truth seen with her terrorist eyes.
Soon she will pay for her crimes So, We hope.
Google FMLN in the 80's
Couldn't find this book on amazon.com
This type of fucking book never goes anywhere in Brownsville. People here are not readers, they are eaters!

Forget Luis Saenz! What we need in this county is a Black district attorney who will run roughshod over the many Mexican criminals, elected officials especially. The "Brown" blood is diseased and we need a goddamned transfusion. Mexicans have not done the job. For decades, the Whites abused the shit out of Mexicans, but when their time came, they were no better at treating their fellow Mexicans. Luis Saenz is Mexican.

The U.S has a sordid history of backing military dictatorships. Rebel groups align under the "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". If anyone cares to look you will notice an ununterupted history of democratic elections since in El Salvador. The government has divested ownership (some communists!) in a large number of key areas of the economy. It has the most robust economy in the area. Sure they have problems. Poverty, illiteracy, and lack of opportunity. These plague the region. People like Sandra are working hard to change that.
Shut the fuck up "Jake!".....chingado ! First, you are into "straw purchases" now you're into posting as much ignorant pendejadas as you can ? Drop dead already , asshole !
That is a joke...
Get over your self. You have to be young and stupid to believe that bull shit
The point you idiot is, she was is and will be a terrorist.
A terrorist is a terrorist
And that's the point.
She needs to go back and do what you claimed she is trying to do.
She can't do crap from here.
And when she gets back, she needs to face her own demon's
Lol
People like sandra will tell you Her story, Have you bother checking anyone else's story?
You seem like you want to be educated in the matter. The fact is that if you did not live it you can not judge it.
You did not live it! Be quiet and get on your way to do what you are paid to do and don't involve your nose where thousands of individuals had a cruel awakening due to this idiots that came and disrupted the little peace the country had.
Under the current Gov. Of El Salvador more have migrated due to the FMLN lack of safety to their civilians and employment.
IF you feel the need to help, Do so but do it where it counts, Not by blabbering bull shit that you have no clue about.
In case you did not know, there is more to sandra that meets the eye! If you only knew the fear you have inflicted upon several of us because you Sir, brought a terrorist into The land where deemed safe You would not be able to sleep at night., and I hope you don't!
People like you should not be in politics, You are here to serve all not a few, but it seems you and Sandra as you call her see eye to eye.
Grow up.
Dam You are an Idiot
