Description
A large crowd of people, many of them young, march during a funeral procession on their way to a burial site following a demonstration in Managua's Plaza 19 de Julio in honor of a group of young men murdered by Contras. A majority in the crowd are carrying and waving the black-and-red flag of the Sandinista National Liberation Front while others do the same with the blue-and-white flag of Nicaragua.
