People mourn in front of the coffin containing the body of Argentina's singer Mercedes Sosa during her wake at the National Congress in Buenos Aires, Sunday, Oct. 4. Sosa, the "voice of Latin America" whose music inspired opponents of South America's brutal military regimes and led to her forced exile in Europe, died on Sunday Oct. 4, 2009. She was 74.
