History
The North American Congress on Latin America was founded on November 1966 by leaders of the New Left movement to analyze the mainstream media coverage of the Johnson Administration's invasion of the Dominican Republic. In 1967 the NACLA began publishing what was then known as the NACLA Newsletter. Later it adopted the name NACLA's Latin America and Empire Report and in 1977 adopted its present name, NACLA Report on the Americas.
The journal describes itself as "the oldest and most widely read progressive magazine covering Latin America and its relationship with the United States".

—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Man watches his history on the screen with apathy and an occasional passing flicker of horror or indignation.”
