Guatemala: Nunca Mas
EL INFORME REMHI
GUATEMALA: NUNCA MAS es el Informe del
Proyecto lnterdiocesano «Recuperación de la
Memoria Histórica» que analiza varios miles
de testimonios sobre violaciones de los
derechos humanos ocurridas durante el
conflicto armado interno. Este trabajo está
sustentado en la convicción de que, además
de su impacto individual y colectivo, la
violencia quitó a los guatemaltecos su
derecho a la palabra.
Cada historia es un recorrido de mucho
sufrimiento, pero también de grandes deseos
de vivir. Mucha gente se acercó para contar
su caso y decir «créame». Esta demanda
implÃcita está ligada al reconocimiento de
la injusticia de los hechos y a la
reivindicación de las vÃctimas y sus
familiares como personas, cuya dignidad
trató de ser arrebatada.
Aclarar y explicar -dentro de lo posible- lo
ocurrido, sin localizar el daño ni
estigmatizar a las vÃctimas, constituyen las
bases para un proceso de reconstrucción
social. Sólo asà la memoria cumple su papel
como instrumento para rescatar la identidad
colectiva.
Guatemala 24 abril 1998.

A snapshot of Guatemala's culture as
experienced on The Village Chapel's July 2007
missions trip. Song by Judson Spence.
Photography by Christiev Alphin, Gregory
Byerline, and David Perry.
In response to several comments and
inquiries, please note that this is only a
snapshot of the Guatemalan culture that we
experienced while there. This is not intended
to be a complete illustration of all of
Guatemala. We visited only a small part of
southwestern Guatemala and spent our time in
two villages and one city. Finally, the
"Guatemala Facts" were compiled through
several encyclopedia sources with documented
the validity of that information.

| Violent Evictions at El Estor, Guatemala |

From Rights Action
(http://www.rightsaction.org/video/elestor/):
On January 8th and 9th 2007, hundreds of
police and soldiers in Guatemala forcibly
evicted the inhabitants of several
communities who were living on lands that a
Guatemalan military government had granted to
Canadian mining company INCO in 1965. Local
indigenous people claim the land to be
theirs, and resent the exploitation of a
foreign corporation. Canada's Skye Resources
now lays claim to the land, and paid workers
a nominal sum to destroy people's homes. With
the force of the army and police, company
workers took chainsaws and torches to
people's homes, while women and children
stood by. Skye Resources claims that they
maintained "a peaceful atmosphere during this
action."
