"No a la criminalización de activistas, líderes, defensores de derechos humanos, herederos legítimos y primogénitos en resistencia y defensa de sus tierras y territorios ancestrales" In memory of my great grandmother Julia Ch'umil Ben, my great grandfather Felipe Xep and their two first born daughters Teresa Xep Ch'umil and Juana Xep Ch'umil. May your names never be forgotten.
