Greetings!
There has been a lot happening recently. I just finished my section for a book about the impact of war and neoliberal policies on children. I don’t have many details to share about the publishing of the book and such, but I can say that my section is focused on the re-militarization of Guatemala and evictions. I’ll post a link to the book eventually.
In the mean time, there are still my articles. This is my most recent for Truthout:
In other news, I recently appeared on Radio Dispatch to discuss neoliberal trade policies and the impact in Central America. You can listen here:

I will be appearing on the show again to continue discussing what is inside the Trans Pacific Partnership – that we know about.
Lastly, back in December I was interviewed by two journalists from Norway. We discussed the social movements and the duel reality of Guatemala. They just recently published a piece that includes a quote from me. It is in Norwegian, but hey, my name appears there. Also several of my friends appear in the article as well.

Well, there will be more updates soon.
