✊🏽 People connected to the Denver Justice & Peace Committee in solidarity with the Ixil People.
The process brings to mind critical and harsh situations from Guatemala’s history. We honor the struggle and resistance of the Association for Justice and Reconciliation (AJR) as survivors, victims, relatives of victims, and plaintiffs of the case, in the pursuit of justice for the Ixil Genocide that occurred in Santa Maria Nebaj, San Juan Cotzal, and San Gaspar Chajul between 1981 and 1982 by Benedicto Lucas García, former Chief of the Guatemalan Army.
