Who was St. Oscar Romero?

St. Oscar Romero was the Archbishop of San Salvador from February 3rd, 1977 until his assassination on March 24th, 1980. He was an outspoken advocate for the poor, human rights, and nonviolence.

Footage is not ours. The footage came from the documentary “The Last Journey of Oscar Romero” (2010) by Ana Carrigan and Juliet Weber with the Kellogg Institute of Notre Dame. You can watch this documentary and other at https://www.romerotrust.org.uk/videos/ or order it off of Amazon.
