This is the 50th anniversary of the US-supported military coup in Chile that overthrew the democratically-elected, left-leaning government of Salvador Allende. Norm Diamond talks with Christian Araos about that history. They discuss how Allende was able to gain the presidency and what he was able to accomplish, the forces against him, and the continuing consequences of the coup five decades later. Araos is the Co-Chair for the Americas of the DSA International Committee
