Join Atlas Society CEO Jennifer Grossman for the 221st episode of The Atlas Society Asks, where she interviews Nicaraguan academic, political activist, and former presidential candidate Félix Maradiaga. Don't miss as the duo discuss Maradiaga's work to promote the ideas of liberty in Nicaragua and his unlawful imprisonment by the Daniel Ortega regime for speaking about against government repression.

----------------------------------------------

Speaking out against the repression by the Daniel Ortega government, Félix was arrested on June 8, 2021 and held in solitary confinement for the alleged crime of “conspiracy to undermine national integrity." In February 2023, Félix was released from captivity and flown to the U.S., along with 221 other political prisoners from Nicaragua, where he was reunited with his family. After serving as the youngest-ever Secretary General of the Ministry of Defense, Felix has dedicated himself to strengthening peace, democracy, and the rule of law in Nicaragua. As the founding co-director of the Civil Society Leadership Institute, he works to educate Nicaraguan grassroots leaders and activists about the ideas of liberty and democracy, along with the importance of non-violent social change.
