has gloss | eng: Father James Carney (d. 1983) was an American priest stationed in Honduras during the civil war. Fr. Carney first arrived in Honduras under the auspices of the Missouri Province of the Society of Jesus in 1961 after his ordination as a Jesuit priest. In Honduras he worked on behalf of the poor in opposition to perceived injustices, which elicited the ire of the right-wing government which quickly expelled him to neighboring Nicaragua. However, Fr. Carney (AKA Padre Guadalupe) returned to Honduras two years later, this time in the role of chaplain of a Central American Revolutionary Workers Party (PRTC)insurgent group. |
