  • Honduras Today – The struggle for water rights

    Saturday, October 5, 2019 1:30 – 3:30 pm at the Resource Center for

    Nonviolence (612 Ocean Street; Santa Cruz, CA.)

    Juan Lopez, Juana Martinez, Juana Esquivel and Reynaldo Ramos from Honduras are in California to inform the public of the repression they and others

    in their country face in trying to defend their rivers from mining companies that

    are destroying the resources communities near the Mountain Park of Botaderos

    in Tocoa need to survive. There are 31 people so far charged with crimes. They

    face years in jail if their appeals to drop prosecution fail. Shining a light on these

    injustices here in the U.S. is an important way of defending the Water Protectors

    and standing in solidarity with the Honduran people in their efforts to wrest

    justice from a corrupt, U.S. backed regime. One of these Water Protectors will

    speak in Santa Cruz Saturday, October 5.

    For more info please call 415-954-2763 or 415-272-6718
