Latin America's Voice at the Washington Post

Marcella Sanchez is a columnist at the Washington Post who holds a column every Thursday on Latin America entitled “Desde Washington”. Her column is published not only in English but also in Spanish. With her weekly columns, she is a little sign of recognition of the numerous Latin American community living in the United States. She also embodies a part of the voice of the expatriate Latin American community by delivering her committed and ruthless view on Latin American policy (this week she dealt with the controversy on the legitimacy of Uribe’s policy) and also on the relations between those countries and the big brother American (2 weeks ago she entitled her column “ Bush looking every which way but South” to denounce Bush’s lack of interest for Latin America since 9/11 and the fact that the only times when Latin America was listened to were when its opinion or action benefited the USA).

Thanks for enlightening us to Marcela Sanchez's columns at the WaPo. She is one of my favorite columnists (along with Andres Oppenheimer of the Miami Herald) on things Latin American.
