April 20th, 2018: The Guarani Language in Paraguay
Why does it seem that Paraguay is so isolated to the rest of Latin America? The answer may lie in a genocidal war that almost destroyed the country and the Guarani language that united it during reconstruction.

Benjamin Fernandez Bogado is also the program director for Radio Libre and a columnist for 5dias del Paraguay.
