    • Abstract:
      The article details the demonstration and vigil staged to protest the Army School of the Americas (SOA), a U.S. Army facility at Fort Benning, Georgia in November 2006. Aside from students of Jesuit and other Catholic schools, the protest was attended by parishes and organizations attending the Ignatian and Family Teach-In for Justice. The protesters wanted to closed down the facility, after SOA has been found training members of governments guilty of serious human rights abuses and of advocating techniques that violate accepted international standards.
