GRITtv: Under Siege in Honduras: Inside the Brazilian Embassy

Andres Conteris of Nonviolence International and Democracy Now! en espa'ol is the only English-speaking media representative inside the Brazilian embassy with deposed Honduran President Manuel Zelaya, and he thinks that the U.S. could be doing much more to ensure that democracy prevails in the Central American country. Though the administration has called for the reinstatement of Zelaya, it has not put actual pressure to bear, and Conteris urges GRITtv viewers to call their representatives in Congress and urge sanctions against the coup regime.
