This photo was taken on the day of Salvador Allende's death and his goverment's takeover by a coup backed by the CIA. This coup led to the rule of Augusto Pinochet who killed 3,200 people and imprisoned 80,000 without trial. I think this is a testament to what can happen when foreign involvement interferes with a country's right to free speech.
