Fallout: Part I An Open Repository of
Personal Perspectives on Nicaragua, Its History, Politics and Diaspora.

Eleven of us shared beds, floor, and one tiny bathroom as the Somoza dynasty came to an end in 1979.

When I returned to Masaya, the town was terribly damaged. The streets and the Spanish stucco facades of homes were bullet ridden and marked with the silhouette of Sandino. Although the popular revolution succeeded, the economic and political rebuilding of the republic never has. Why is this so?

Fallout serves as a repository of personal perspectives concerning the enigma of the Nicaraguan national character. Initiated by requesting personal commentary from individuals representing various generations of one family, Fallout is an open archive of informed and thoughtful insights addressing the past, present and future of Nicaragua as well as parallel situation in other countries.

Once de nosotros compartimos camas, piso y un pequeno bano mientras en Nicaragua la dinastia Somocista caia en 1979.

Cuando volvi a Masaya, el pueblo estaba hecho mierda. Las calles y las paredes de las casas destrosadas por bombas y balas y marcadas con la silueta de Sandino. Aunque la revolucion popular triunfo, le reconstrucion economica y politica de la republica nunca ha tenido exito. Porque es que Nicaragua no sostiene movimiento para adelante?

Este sitio, Fallout, sirve como un depositorio de perspectivas personales acerca del caracter nacional nicaraguense. Iniciado al pedimiento de perspectivas personales de individuos de diferentes generaciones de una familia, Fallout esta abierto para al que le interese escriba su perspectiva personal acerca el enigma de Nicaragua y de situaciones paralelas en otros paises.
