Bloodshed in El Salvador
Roberto Lovato’s Unforgetting: A Memoir of Family, Migration, Gangs, and Revolution in the Americas has a strong theme of violence throughout it. Roberto has personal experiences with violence, although most of the mentions of violence in his story is about atrocities committed by gangs or the Salvadoran government: “The news from El Paso and my friend’s terrified social media responses tighten my shoulder and neck, my body reminding me of those times someone has tried to hurt or kill me” (Lovato 2020, XVI). In Chapter 11: San Francisco 1979, Roberto is attacked by a “big cholo dude” and he is proud of himself after he beats the guy up and walks away pretending that it was not a big deal so that he would seem tough. Lovato writes: “The last time I visited the country was 2013, the year we buried half of my mother’s ashes in her hometown of San Vicente, where my goddaughter and I barely escaped gun-wielding gang members who chased us-in the cemetery” (Lovato 2020, 45). Roberto has returned to El Salvador trying to understand the revolving door system of people becoming refugees, child soldiers, and gang killers. When Roberto interviews a gang member, he asks him to identify the causes of violence in El Salvador apart from the extermination squads. Santiago, the gang member gives a long description of how the destruction of the family, caused by societal trauma leads to different traumas for each individual in the family and shows how all of these circumstances are linked together and lead to further violence. (Lovato 2020, 211).
