WHAT, WHEN
|
WHO :Use graphs and data visualization to understand complex dynamics. The people beyond the numbers: who are the victims and who the perpetrators of the 36 years of violence and of the Maya genocide in particular?
|
WHY :In front of violence, "why it has happened" is always a complex issue. For this reason this section is very limited. It offers suggestions on the ant-communist ideology supported by the US and the racist strategy used to dehumanize and transform into enemies the members of Maya population.
|
HOW :Deepen your knowledge on how the genocide has been executed. Navigate through information from court trials and from the investigations lead by Guatemala Historical Clarification Commission (CEH).
