La Puya: 2nd Anniversary Prep

On the evening before the movement's second anniversary, members of the La Puya resistance hang a banner. Since March 2nd, 2012, local neighbors from San José del Golfo and San Pedro Ayampuc have maintained a blockade into the Tambor gold mine owned by Kappes, Cassiday & Assocaites (KCA) based in Nevada, USA. Community members participating in the peaceful resistance claim the industrial activity in their territories as illegal since they were not appropriately consulted before the mine began operations. La Puya, San Pedro Ayampuc, Guatemala. March 1, 2014.
