Cards Against Humanity Night, 6pm, Mac's Nightclub & Restau- rant, 1626 Willamette St. FREE What does it take to convict a dictator of genocide? What are the struggles and dangers involved? How can you hold public officials accountable? These questions and more will be addressed by the award-winning human rights judge Yassmin Barrios in a lecture presented by the University of Oregon Center for Latino/a & Latin American Studies, according to a press release from CLLAS. Barrios presides over one of Guatemala’s high-risk crimes tribunals, which oversee complex criminal cases related to grave crimes. In 2013, Barrios presided over a prominent case where former Guatemalan dictator José Efraín Ríos Montt was tried and convicted — a landmark moment in human rights law — for crimes against humanity and the genocide of at least 1,771 members of Guatemala’s indigenous Ixil Mayans during the country’s decades-long civil war. Other court cases she’s heard have involved members of the Guatemalan army committing acts of sexual violence against hundreds of women as well as other prominent cases of human rights violations in Guatemala. Her work pursuing justice in Guatemala has earned her international awards such as the U.S. Department of Defense’s International Women of Courage Award. “Justice and Reparation in Guatemala: Challenges and Possibilities” is 6 pm Tuesday, March 5, at 156 Straub Hall, 1451 Onyx Street, at the UO.
