The K'iche Indigenous Peoples of the World

 The K'iche Indigenous Peoples of the World 


I heard Rigoberta MenchĂș speak for the first time in Toronto on February 6, 1988. That very day The Globe and Mail ran a travel feature with the headline “Guatemala in Style for a Mere $5 a Day.” Whether she or the organizers of the human rights conference she came to address noticed the coincidence, I don’t know. I suspect, however, that the image of Guatemala it projected would not have been to their liking. It is unclear from the piece whether the writer, Margaret Piton, had actually visited Guatemala: she provides the prospective tourist with a long list of enticements, but these are mostly culled from Paul Glassman’s Guatemala Guide. Piton packages Guatemala as cheap, romantic, and not to be missed by anyone interested in an exotic travel experience. She writes: The ideal travel destination would probably be a country with beautiful scenery, a spring-like climate, nice beaches, historic buildings and ruins, fine handicrafts, and low prices. Such a country does exist—and it isn’t on the other side of the world. Guatemala has all the above attributes and can be easily reached in a day’s travel. Piton goes on at length about the glories of Guatemala. Then, toward the end of her piece, she offers the following reflection: There is no such thing as a perfect travel destination and Guatemala, like every country, has problems. Poverty is widespread and petty theft is common in some areas—especially markets. Political violence flares up from time to time, although the situation seems to have improved with the present civilian government. The Guatemala that Rigoberta MenchĂș speaks of is far removed from the “low prices,” “beautiful beaches,” and “tasty, filling meals” that Margaret Piton writes about. MenchĂș’s message to the people gathered in Toronto’s Church of the Holy Trinity—that we live in a careless world, one that acts wantonly and forgets too easily—could not have been more opportune. MenchĂș first recounted the details of her life in Guatemala in an oral history given shape, structure, and the authority of print by Elisabeth BurgosDebray, a Venezuelan scholar who pieced together, in autobiographical form, interviews she conducted with MenchĂș in Paris in 1982. After the publication of her testimony in Spanish in 1983—an English translation, I, Rigoberta MenchĂș: An Indian Woman in Guatemala, appeared a year later—MenchĂș began to travel across Europe and North America speaking about her beloved but tormented Guatemala. Her work as a human rights activist was instrumental in her being awarded the 1992 Nobel Peace Prize. An indigenous Guatemalan of K’iche’ Maya lineage, MenchĂș was twentythree years old when she and Burgos-Debray recorded her testimony. BurgosDebray recalls: Rigoberta spent a week in Paris. In order to make things easier and to make the best possible use of her time, she came to stay with me. Every day for a week, we began to record her story at nine in the morning, broke for lunch about one, and then continued until six in the evening. We often worked after dinner too, either making more recordings or preparing questions for the next day. At the end of the week I had twenty-four hours of conversation on tape. The transition from spoken to written word, Burgos-Debray informs us, involved two key stages: I began by transcribing all the tapes. By that I mean that nothing was left out, not a word, even if it was used incorrectly or was later changed. I altered neither the style nor the sentence structure. The Spanish original covers almost five hundred pages of typescript. Burgos-Debray then set about the tricky job of editing MenchĂș’s words in order to lend them narrative coherence: I soon reached the decision to give the manuscript the form of a monologue: that was how it came back to me as I re-read it. I therefore decided to delete all my questions. By doing so I became what I really was: Rigoberta’s listener. I allowed her to speak and then became her instrument, her double. . . . This decision made my task more difficult, as I had to insert linking passages if the manuscript was to read like a monologue, like one continuous narrative. I then divided it into chapters organized around the themes I had already identified. I followed my original chronological outline, even though our conversations had not done so, so as to make the text more accessible to the reader. The text created by Burgos-Debray, like that of most oral histories, is not without its flaws. MenchĂș is at times repetitious, obscure, vague, and inconsistent. She collapses separate episodes into a single event, mixing time and place in ways that incense academic purists, especially those who believe in the myth of objective social science. Collective memory is of necessity selective memory, subjective memory. Such ways of remembering are simply how the K’iche’ and other oral cultures operate. They are also, in large measure, the reason why MenchĂș’s testimony has such universal appeal: the voice that working with Burgos-Debray has given her speaks as much for an entire people as for one person. Her experiences in Guatemala also form the centerpiece of a documentary film, When the Mountains Tremble (1983). Soon after her week in Paris with Burgos-Debray, long before the heady days of the Nobel laureate, MenchĂș became an important cultural icon. This unusual status for a Maya woman is linked directly to the power of her testimony. MenchĂș begins by telling about her father, mother, brothers, and sisters, and about growing up not just in the remote highland village where she was born but also on plantations on the Pacific coast where her family, like most Maya families, spent part of each year picking coffee or cotton. The trip from the altiplano, or highlands, down to the plantations, known in Guatemala as fincas, is not one for a delicate stomach: I remember the journey by lorry very well. . . . The lorry holds about forty people. But in with the people go the animals (dogs, cats, chickens), which the people from the altiplano take with them while they are in the finca. . . . It sometimes took two nights and a day from my village to the coast. During the trip the animals and the small children used to dirty the lorry and you’d get people vomiting and wetting themselves. . . . The lorry is covered with a tarpaulin so you can’t see the countryside you’re passing through. . . . The stuffiness inside the lorry with the cover on, and the smell of urine and vomit, make you want to be sick yourself just from being in there. By the time we got to the finca, we were totally stupefied; we were like chickens coming out of a pot.
Time spent working on fincas, MenchĂș tells us, was followed by a spell serving as a maid in a well-to-do household. MenchĂș’s recollection of domestic service abounds in details of abuse and degradation: The food they gave me was a few beans with some very hard tortillas. There was a dog in the house, a pretty, white, fat dog. When I saw the maid bring out the dog’s food—bits of meat, rice, things that the family ate—and they gave me a few beans and hard tortillas, that hurt me very much. The dog had a good meal and I didn’t deserve as good a meal as the dog. Washing dishes and mopping floors, however, was not without reward, for it was in such exploited keep that MenchĂș groped toward a better knowledge of Spanish. Becoming fluent in Spanish changed her life. Following the example of her father, a community activist, in 1977 MenchĂș joined a peasant organization responsible for raising the political consciousness of rural workers. Being bilingual meant that as well as canvassing in her own and other K’iche’- speaking communities, she could travel throughout Guatemala and communicate with Spanish-speaking Ladinos who, in her words, “also live in terrible conditions, the same as we [Mayas] do.” By the late 1970s, as civil war between guerrillas and the national armed forces began to take a heavy toll, MenchĂș aligned herself firmly on the side of the insurgents, committed to revolution as the only means of achieving peasant demands for human rights and social justice. Counterinsurgency war has scarred MenchĂș’s life, like that of many Guatemalans, in horrific ways. Of a list of family members numbering fifteen, seven met their death violently, including her parents, Vicente and Juana. Her father was burned alive on January 31, 1980, in a blaze that gutted the Spanish embassy in Guatemala City when it was fired at by government security forces ordered to end a peaceful occupation by leaders protesting against repression in the countryside. Several weeks later her mother was kidnapped, beaten, and raped, left to die after being dumped by the army on a deserted hillside far from the MenchĂș family home: When my mother died, the soldiers stood over her and urinated in her mouth; even after she was dead! Then they left a permanent sentry there to guard her body so that no-one could take it away, not even what was left of it. The soldiers were there right by her body, and they could smell my mother when she started to smell very strongly. They were there right by  her; they ate near her, and, if the animals will excuse me, I believe not even animals act like that, like those savages in the army. After that, my mother was eaten by animals; by dogs, by all the zopilotes [vultures]. MenchĂș states that the soldiers stayed at the site for four months, “until they saw that not a bit of my mother was left, not even her bones, and then they went away.” In Crossing Borders, a sequel to I, Rigoberta MenchĂș published in 1998, MenchĂș informs us that her mother’s death occurred soon after she fled Guatemala for the safety of exile in Mexico. Of that last farewell, she writes: I will never get over the trauma of having left my mother so shortly before her death. It was my last chance to feel a mother’s warmth. If I had known, I would at least have paused to look at her, to gaze at her face for the last time. I would have tried, to the very last, to learn more about her. All I could think of in my misery was that I had to go away. Since the publication of her life story, MenchĂș has been criticized on the grounds of authority and accuracy by several commentators, most notably (and at greatest length) by anthropologist David Stoll in his book Rigoberta MenchĂș and the Story of All Poor Guatemalans (1999). MenchĂș reveals in Crossing Borders that Guatemalan historian Arturo Taracena “was the one who persuaded me to write my book.” MenchĂș took Taracena’s advice “because he had followed the whole story and thought it would be an injustice to a time and a people if we didn’t relate it.” She confesses, “After the text was compiled, I spent about two months trying to understand it,” and also divulges that “seeing it on paper is very different from talking into a tape recorder.” MenchĂș elaborates: I realize now how shy I was. I still am, but not as much as I used to be. In those days I was innocent and naive. When I wrote that book, I simply did not know the commercial rules. I was just happy to be alive to tell my story. I had no idea about an author’s copyright. I had to ask the compañeros in Mexico to help me understand the text, and it was painful to have to relive the content of the book. I censured several parts that might have been dangerous for people. I took out bits that referred to my village, details about my brothers and sisters, and names of people. That is why the book lacks a more specific identity and I feel it will be my duty to provide this before I die.

Instructions Hair

Instructions Hair

 

To acquire the hair of your dreams, it may take a while. At any time you call the salon and reserve your appointment for your full transparency or balayage service, they reserve you for 3 hours. Maybe 4 hours at the most. However in reality sometimes those services may take anywhere from 4 for 9 hours and in many cases even longer. When a designer has such a tiny frame of time for work in, they can't achieve the gorgeous hair in the image you brought. Most of us need star hair - I was watching a movie on YouTube titled The Fabulous Life Of Miley Cyrus and in it I discovered that one semester with her hair stylist Chris prices $1000.

She probably books him for a complete day if she changes her mind or desires something extra added. Or if he'll feel he needs more time to attain a specific look. Celebrities do not just pay more because they're celebrities, but since quality costs more. Particularly when someones time is involved. And every time you need something new the stylist might have to spend extra time to accomplish this look. Coloring hair the proper way isn't as simple as a customer might assume. Additionally, if your hair is very damaged from previous coloring, then your hair will not take colour how it should, and which can add more time to your hair assistance in addition to costing more money.

You don't have virgin hair In case your own hair is virgin own hair when you walk into a salon, its far simpler, and less time intensive to acquire results in less time. However if you come in with coloured hair and need a look different from the current colour its going to involve colour removal only to start with. That service alone may take up to several hours. The hair you may be dreaming of may require colour removal, coloring your hair into a brand new base colour, balayage or highlights and toner. That's four hair services in one time.

Which means you'll be charged for four separate services. This is why it may take plenty of time and not a simple touch up assistance. This is something I explain for my customers, so that they've real expectations. Celebrity stylist Guy Tang knows - I follow a cool star stylist on Instagram Guy Tang and below are a couple of images he posted of his customers and how long it took him for attain the results. Usually his customers reserve a complete or half day with him, and he occasionally gets a licensed cosmetologist as his assistant helping him as well. That's a realistic way of getting that fantastic hair you need along with having a knowledgeable hairstylist who's good at what they do. Here's what Guy says - Many individuals ask me why I take so long for colour one client. The fact is that many people don't need virgin own hair walking in the salon or my studio.

Jakaltek American

Jakaltek American

 

 Jacaltenango is a remote, unkemptlooking town at the western edge of the Cuchumatanes Mountains close to the Guatemalan border with Mexico. It is known to the scholarly world as a stop on the route taken in 1925 by Frans Blom and Oliver La Farge, who afterward produced a two-volume record, Tribes and Temples (1926, 1927), about their reconnaissance. La Farge returned to Jacaltenango two years later with fellow researcher Douglas Byers, with whom he penned The Year Bearer’s People (1931), another classic contribution in the field of Mesoamerican anthropology. Both works, especially the latter, document an intriguing array of Maya survivals. One of the most remarkable was the persistence in Jacaltenango of a method of observing the passage of time according to a pre-Columbian calendar, complete with rites and ceremonies that date back centuries, if not millennia. In his introductory remarks to The Year Bearer’s People, Blom aptly likened the intent of La Farge and Byers “to that of a man trying to become familiar with the ritual of a Masonic Lodge without becoming a Mason himself.” All three men spent long and distinguished careers studying indigenous cultures in Guatemala and other parts of the Americas. As part of the decolonization of academic life in Guatemala, Jacaltenango is now being written about not by visiting anthropologists but by one of its native sons. Before he himself trained and became accredited in the discipline while studying in the United States, Victor Montejo engaged local lore and storytelling in two books, El Kanil: Man of Lightning (1984) and The Bird Who Cleans the World (1991). The first book presents an elaborate legend that La Farge and Byers recorded only fragments of; the second is a collection of fables that resonate with the moral authority of Aesop, Jakaltek folk tales that Montejo heard as a boy from his mother and community elders. In Testimony (1987), however, social not magical realism prevails as he grapples with Jacaltenango’s grim lot during counterinsurgency operations in 1982.

 On the morning of September 9 that year, a Friday, Montejo woke in a small village some distance from Jacaltenango. His job then was to teach village children as resident schoolmaster. Friday, he writes, “has always been a happy day for me, full of anticipation,” for after class he would set off to return home to Jacaltenango to spend the weekend with his wife and children. An elementary school teacher, Montejo had worked for ten years as a government employee in the Department of Education, preferring to take a humble post within reasonable reach of his home rather than seek employment in a more illustrious setting farther away. Montejo was satisfied with his decision to go back to his roots after graduating from teacher’s college. That Friday class unfolded as usual until one of the villagers burst into the schoolhouse and screamed, “The guerrillas are approaching. . . . Everyone get ready!” The peal of the church bell confirmed the danger. Montejo recalls: I consulted my watch and saw it was eleven in the morning. At almost the same instant I heard the first shot fired. Behind it came a volley of machine gun fire. The peaceful community broke into confusion. The women wept and prayed to God to protect their husbands and older sons who had been forced to join the civil [defense] patrol. I ordered the students to stretch out on the floor and barred the door and windows with old broomsticks. The invaders had encircled the village and the hills echoed the furious explosions of grenades and the sputter of bullets that whistled past the corrugated tin roof of the schoolhouse. “Don’t make a sound,” I ordered my children. Some began to weep and others trembled with fear. Their fathers were in the midst of that gunfire, armed with sticks, stones, and slingshots and the children were fully aware of the danger they were in. It turned out to be a tragic case of mistaken identity. The local civil defense patrol had seen an armed group of men moving through village territory and assumed that they were guerrillas. The patrol opened fire, wounding one of the intruders, but then noticed that the guns the intruders replied with emitted the distinctive “coughing noise of Galil rifles,” the standard Israeli-made issue of the Guatemalan army. Realizing their error, the members of the civil patrol fled to escape retaliation. Chaos erupted as the army attacked the village. After a while the shooting died down, and Montejo deemed it safe enough to dismiss his students, who “fled like deer out the door” and raced off to find their parents. He then joined other villagers ordered by the army to assemble in the school patio. There and in the space adjoining the village church the army was getting ready for a public execution, rounding up local militiamen who had been captured and accused of being guerrillas. They tied five men to a row of pillars. Montejo attempted to intervene and explain to the enraged officer in charge just what had happened: “Good afternoon, my lieutenant,” I said respectfully. . . . “What do you want, you—” he snapped. “I am the schoolmaster in this village and have come to let you know that the people you’re holding captive are members of the civil patrol. By accident they mistook you for guerrillas.” “Don’t come to me with those stories. These sons of bitches are guerrillas. That’s why they attacked us, and I am going to execute every damn one of them.” I went on, unperturbed. “Up there by the chapel the rest of the men are waiting to clear up the situation for you.” “With me you have nothing to clear up. Everything is already clear. They’ve wounded one of my soldiers, and all of you will have to pay for it. What more do you want to know?” “I beseech my lieutenant to forgive these people. All the men are members of the patrol and guard the village day and night, as you have verified for yourself. What a pity they mistook you, because of your olive green uniforms.” The commander made no reply, but went on inspecting [some] boxes and chests. . . . “This radio interests me. Take it along,” he called out. Montejo’s intervention proved futile. The lean majesty of his prose, translated beautifully from Spanish into English by Victor Perera, only heightens the horror of what took place next, when the firing squad set about its work: The five condemned men turned to one another, uncomprehending. They set their eyes above the heads of the kaibiles [soldiers] who were lining up to discharge their weapons into their hearts. No one spoke. The hapless captives gazed toward the horizon, as though to bid farewell to the hills that had nurtured them. . . . As the commander prepared to give the fatal order, the condemned turned instinctively for a last look at their loved ones. Their hands were tied behind their back so they could give vent to their feelings only with strained smiles and bitter tears. “FIRE . . . !” The cavernous voice of the commander rang out, and the Galils exploded with thunderous fury The women raised a deafening howl. Dazed with grief, they tried to fling themselves on the bullet-ridden bodies of their beloved ones, but once again the kaibiles forced them to draw back by threatening them point blank. The victims slumped and hung from the pillars as the warm, copious blood drenched their shirts. After the execution Montejo’s personal situation quickly deteriorated. Under torture a villager demented by pain gave Montejo’s name as a guerrilla sympathizer, and so the schoolmaster was sought out, bound, beaten, and led “like a thief or a murderer” back to army headquarters in Jacaltenango, where he was interrogated and beaten again. Death, he believed, seemed inevitable: I was bothered by the knotted rope around my neck and stuck my fingers repeatedly under the noose to prevent it from choking me. My dignity as a schoolmaster, I said to myself. These bastards are making a display of me, as if I were an assassin, a thief or a common criminal. I spat my darkest unspoken thoughts on the ground. . . . In all my thirty years I had not known darker days than the present ones. Fortune, however, favored him. Insisting always on his innocence, Montejo was eventually released from captivity, but only on the condition that he visit army headquarters and report on “every person” he thought might be “involved with the guerrillas.” Repugnant though this condition was to him, he accepted it to protect himself and his family. Once home, living by his wits for weeks on end, he resisted being forced to inform on others until he was finally able to flee into exile and arrange for his wife and children to follow. The family lived for many years in California, eventually becoming American citizens. After Montejo departed Guatemala, suspicion fell on his parents, forcing them also to flee Jacaltenango. They lived for a while in Canada. In recording his ordeal, Montejo is careful not to lapse into indiscriminate hatred. During his captivity, one soldier offered Montejo food and a blanket, causing him to reflect: “I thanked God that not every soldier was malevolent and devoid of human feelings. His gesture made me understand that in their own way—although they dare not say so—they too are victims of a violence that has become institutionalized.” Judging by the way they spoke, Montejo was able to identify the soldiers involved in the operation as natives of SololĂĄ or TotonicapĂĄn, Mayas like himself. Heavy of heart, Montejo observes how terror sows division and distrust among Maya communities, how it corrodes group solidarity. The scorn with which the soldiers rebuked his pleas of reason—“you don’t fool any of us with your high-sounding jabber”—illustrates how risky it is to value education in a country where knowledge or the gift of self-expression can be construed as an act of subversion. Education was the bedrock upon which Montejo reinvented himself in the United States. With customary Maya resourcefulness, he learned English and enrolled in university, earning a bachelor’s and master’s degree from the State University of New York at Albany and, in 1993, a doctorate in anthropology from the University of Connecticut. Afterward, he took a faculty position at the University of California, where for eight years he served as Chair of Native American Studies. He reworked his Ph.D. dissertation into a substantive monograph, Voices from Exile: Violence and Survival in Modern Maya History (1999). To his already impressive literary output has been added a collection of poems, Sculpted Stones (1995), and an illustrated retelling, for children, of the Popol Vuh (1999), a sacred Maya text. When I met up with Montejo and other Mayas in Chicago in 1991—we were attending the annual meeting of the American Anthropological Association—I was able to arrange a visit to the Newberry Library, where we inspected a copy of the Popol Vuh made in the late seventeenth century by the Dominican friar Francisco XimĂ©nez. The original is either lost or in safe keeping beyond our ken. It was a very emotional day. During a ceremony of symbolic repatriation, the Q’eqchi’ spiritual leader and native rights activist Antonio Pop Caal was reduced to tears as he held the Maya bible and chanted a prayer. Don Antonio, who studied philosophy and theology at the University of Salamanca in Spain before returning to work in his Verapaz homeland, is now in the arms of his Maya makers: on December 17, 2002, having been abducted two months before, his decapitated body was found in a well. For his part, Montejo has become a critic not only of American anthropology and Guatemalan politics but also of the indigenous movement to which he belongs, subjecting it to scrutiny in a trenchant book of essays, Maya Intellectual Renaissance (2005). As an assimilated American academic with a Fulbright scholarship among his many awards and distinctions, Montejo has faced the challenge of returning to Guatemala and getting involved in political life there. In elections held on December 28, 2003, he won a congressional seat and was later named by presidential winner Oscar Berger to serve in 2004 and 2005 as the newly created Minister of Peace. The corruption so endemic to holding any political post in Guatemala was one Montejo and his team managed to keep at bay, a trait recognized by the National Award for Transparency in Office. In 2006 he was elected president of the Congressional Commission for Indigenous Issues. “We have to emerge from this chaos,” he once told Mary Jo McConahay in an interview with Pacific News Service. “We need people in this country who can create [a] strong relationship with the United States. The indigenous, for instance, will not simply tell Washington what it wants to hear.” A Jakaltek American has spoken.

A beauty that hurts Life and Death in Guatemala

A beauty that hurts Life and Death in Guatemala

The privileges of university life are many. One that I hold in special regard is the luxury of sabbatical leave. Released from routine and duty on one such leave, I was able to devote myself entirely to writing, sitting at my desk without any need to prepare lectures, attend meetings, counsel students, grade papers, examine and supervise theses, evaluate grant proposals, compose letters of recommendation, or simply be at hand to deal with all sorts of matters—and crises, real or imagined. I found peace and quiet in the woods of Vermont, where I dared to think of myself not as teacher or colleague, academic adviser or member of committee, but simply as a writer. The distinction may mean nothing to anyone else, but a Rubicon it was, and remains, for me. My father saw things differently. When I went home for Christmas the no-nonsense ways of Glasgow were soon asserted. “Yer mother tells me yer on a year’s holiday.” Normally a reliable filter, on this occasion my mother had let me down badly. The words had been uttered half as a statement, half as inquiry, lost on all the occupants of the Old Stag Inn but myself. I wondered, not for the first time, how to respond to my father’s perception of what it is I do, what it is I am. I began to explain, as my Dean would expect and as best I could, the gulf between “holiday” and “sabbatical,” reeling off a litany of tasks I wished to accomplish before my year’s leave was over. My father listened patiently. When I stopped talking it was time for another round. He wiped from his moustache the creamy froth of a fresh half-pint of Guinness. “Sounds like a holiday tae me, son!” he declared. The woman working behind the bar smiled at the sound of our laughter. Against what did my father measure his son’s lucky lot? The years he spent at sea? After the merchant navy, the years spent running our family shop? After the shop closed, the years of swallowed pride sweeping the streets of Govan? As we made our way home, I felt more privileged than ever.
The flip side of privilege, however, is responsibility: responsibility to oneself, to one’s family and friends, to the people and places we cherish and love, to the ideals we hope to live by. While more at ease in a university setting than in any other I have encountered, I have never felt comfortable with certain academic conventions. Among those that trouble me most is the bent that views scholarly work as a kind of cabal, as the ability to engage with a select group of fellow intellectuals in conversation, in print, or in an online forum. Even if I had the inclination to express myself in such a fashion, I doubt if I would derive any pleasure from knowing that whatever I had to say could be understood, and cared about, only by a handful of like-minded specialists. The academy, at times more than I consider tolerable, revels in exclusion. So it was that, early on in my career as professor, I began to lead a double life, publishing research findings that cater to more erudite tastes while at the same time producing the odd essay, review, or opinion piece for media with more public terms of reference. I enjoy both parts of my double life and have never considered them mutually exclusive. This book is an attempt to link and integrate the two. It is a measure of the freedom that university life allows that, during my sabbatical leave, I could channel energy into a book like this, one that draws on academic training and hopes to have something to offer a specialist clientele, but not at the expense of an interested general readership. It is also, for me, a peculiar measure of what Canada represents that much of the time I spend there is taken up coming to terms with Guatemala, a country I stumbled on almost by accident over three decades ago. Did I choose Guatemala or did Guatemala choose me? I had been in Canada less than a year, having left Scotland to pursue graduate studies in Latin American geography at the University of Alberta. Classes in anthropology and history, to say nothing of the bite of that first Canadian winter, only fuelled my desire to flee Edmonton and head south. Responding to my supervisor’s instructions—“Finish your fieldwork in Mexico and get down to Central America”—I arrived in Guatemala on June 25, 1974, not really knowing what might happen. I was twenty-three, hitching rides or travelling on second-class buses, wide-eyed and ripe for new experience. Within days Guatemala had cast its spell and seduced me, offering not just a fleeting summer’s reward but fulfilling work for a lifetime. I had found something I longed for, something I knew would endure. I could feel it in my heart, be part of it as I walked through the hills and the corn, observe it everywhere in the bonds of land and life. Thereafter, rites of academic passage called for a dissertation, then a monograph, with articles, conference presentations, a teaching job, and graduate supervisions along the way. Soon after being awarded my doctorate, however I felt that something was missing, that the contract I had struck with Guatemala called for me to develop the knowledge I had picked up as a scholar, to cultivate a rapport with a non-specialist audience. This occurred in 1981, when the political situation in Guatemala (seldom good) began to deteriorate, when friends whose safety was threatened made plans to leave, when people I knew and respected were killed. Things started to unravel, spun tragically out of control. That year, as civil war flared up, I made my first foray into journalism and began to accept invitations to speak at public meetings in which issues of human rights were addressed. Guatemala is a complex country. In trying to make sense of it, I make no claims of providing definitive, unassailable interpretations. Evidence can be presented; knowing the full extent of the truth is another matter. “AsĂ­ es, pĂșes. . . . That’s just how it is,” is a popular Guatemalan way of putting it. For me, it’s an unjust way of how things should be. The fallout of the war years will be manifest for decades to come. I heard it put even more obliquely once, after I made what I thought was the most straightforward of inquiries. “Claro no sĂ­ hay.” I checked, via eye contact, with the graduate student whom I was visiting in Guatemala City to make sure I had heard correctly. She nodded, mouth open. “Yes, it’s clear that it isn’t” is the best I can approximate. This book has three parts. In Part One I let Guatemala come into focus through the lives of disparate individuals, several of them indigenous Mayas, whose circumstances differ but whose stories tell of hardship and adversity. These individuals share a common need to bear witness, a belief that abuse and injustice can at least be confronted if not overcome. Some have been given pseudonyms to protect their identities, others not. I have no rule of thumb in this regard besides allowing people to decide for themselves, and feel comfortable about that, before I opt for maximum caution. The main protagonists of Chapters 1 and 4, for instance, expressed a preference to be known by their real names after I had taken the pseudonym route. In the case of Doña Magdalena, her grandson Paulino told me: “My grandmother says that we did nothing wrong and so have nothing to hide. Let people know who we are, tell them what happened to us.” It is the strength and courage of its inhabitants that I find most inspiring about Guatemala. Part Two offers a series of temporal vignettes that deal with politics and human rights in Guatemala between 1981 and 1995. For this look at the country I lean heavily for information on Guatemalan newspaper sources, because I believe that what appears each day on the printed page, however incongruous, however incomplete, is important and revealing. The period between 1995 and the present is dealt with similarly in the Epilogue. In Part Three, I step back from journalistic forays to assess the histori-cal forces that shape, and the cultural context that frames, current predicaments, especially those of Maya communities. I draw here on my familiarity with archival documents and scholarly literature to inject the narrative with contemporary viewpoints and observations. I also indulge in a little playful fieldwork, which I hope lightens the load of more onerous discussion about the vicissitudes of Maya survival. Wherever possible I bring elements of the Guatemalan story back to Canada, where I have lived and worked for more than thirty years. Canadians, as much as Americans, need to know more about life and death in a country that is closer to Toronto than Vancouver is. NAFTA , which is responsible for all sorts of geographical transformations, made Guatemala our next-door neighbor. As with most projects, this book reflects the help, influence, and encouragement of many people. First mention belongs to my parents, who always stressed the importance of getting an education and who worked hard to afford me opportunities that they themselves never had. In Scotland, at least in the part of Glasgow where I grew up, it was possible then to move through primary and secondary schooling and on to university without being too much of a burden on family resources. This is the greatest gift I was given, and the one I value most. Both my mother and my father lived long enough to see me leave home and make my way in the wider world beyond. Now they are gone, I no longer worry about them worrying about me, but I miss them more than I ever could have imagined. In Canada, a special vote of thanks belongs to Roger Bainbridge. As editor of Kingston’s Whig-Standard Magazine, he welcomed my very first submission on Guatemala in 1981. It was Roger who suggested that I write under a pen name, for he grasped right away the nature of my involvement—that I would always want to go back to Guatemala. We settled on Donald McAlpine, a combination of the maiden names of my mother and my grandmother. My alter ego was published in the Kingston newspaper several times. He even managed, on a couple of occasions, to migrate from the Saturday magazine to the editorial page, where his views were enshrined, if not endorsed, by the then lively, independent-minded Whig. In 1982, after I testified on the armed conflict in Guatemala before a parliamentary committee in Ottawa, at which representatives of the Guatemalan government were also in attendance, Donald McAlpine was made redundant. It also made sense not to return to Guatemala for a while. Roger, however, believed it was his job to keep readers informed as well as entertained, as did the Whig’s literary editor, Larry Scanlan. From the time of McAlpine on, several times a year, I have written or spoken about human rights in Guatemala in the hope of making it a concrete issue, not a distant abstraction, for the Kingston community and others across Canada, the United States, and Europe. In addition to Roger and Larry, other Whig associates nudged me along at key junctures, among them Barbara Carey, Amy Friedman, David Prosser, David Pulver, Jennie Punter, and Harvey Schachter. Maureen McCallum Garvie, who first caught my eye when she worked at the Whig, is the best editor anyone could hope for, and is now my treasured partner. I thank her for putting up with me, and with my constant comings and goings. Don Akenson of McGill-Queen’s University Press was the first person to tell me that writing a book and getting it published was not beyond me, an early vote of confidence I will always appreciate. A colleague at Queen’s University, Brian S. Osborne, listens with an open, supportive mind each time I return angry, sad, or confused from Guatemala. A former Queen’s colleague, John Walker, insisted some time ago that I acknowledge and deal with these emotions. Numerous other university associates, at Queen’s and elsewhere, I leave unnamed but not unappreciated. My job allows me the opportunity to talk about Guatemala in the classes I teach. Students pay me the greatest compliment when their curiosity actually takes them there, or elsewhere in Latin America. I have learned a great deal over the years from the graduate students I have supervised or somehow been involved with, in particular Jeff Bellinger, Wayne Burke, David Carr, Peter Cleary, Susan E. Davis, Mireya Folch-Serra, Roberto Garcia Ferreira, Patricia Foxen, Victoria L. Henderson, Sarah Hill, Krista L. House, Leah A. Huff, Wendy Kramer, Aracely MartĂ­nez, Karin Monasterios, Erin Morin, Catherine Nolin Hanlon, Kari M. Pries, Jim Reinhart, Finola Shankar, Michelle Switzer, Giselle Valarezo, Paul Van Zant, and Rohini Wilkie. Time spent in their company, on the road and in the field, has been especially rewarding. “The lesson,” writes Keith Reid of Procol Harum, “lies in learning, and by teaching I’ll be taught.” He got that one right, as he has so many other observations about the essence of life. Over the years my work on Guatemala has been supported by the Office of Research Services at Queen’s University, the Killam Program of the Canada Council, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, the John Carter Brown Library, and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Mary Ellen Davis always responds in her own inimitable way. So do an esteemed assortment of others, among them Armando J. Alfonzo, Wayne Bernhardson, Kathrin and Brian Cooper, Ray Craib, Krystyna Deuss, Mark Fried, Eduardo Galeano, Wayne Grady, Linda Green, Jim Handy, Daniel HernĂĄndez-Salazar, John M. Kirk, Christopher H. Lutz, Oscar Maldonado MarĂ­a Laura Massolo, Ken Mills, Marilyn Moors, Dougie Munroe, Diane M. Nelson, Michael Polushin, Tom Pow, Alasdair Robertson, Merilyn Simonds, Carolyn Smart, Michael Steinberg, Matthew Taylor, and Ronald Wright. As strategic sources of information, I can always count on Victoria Henderson and Celeste MacKenzie. Conversations in Guatemala with Patrick Ball, Paul Kobrak, Trudy H. Peterson, and Jane E. Swezey got me thinking and made me investigate further. The sisters belonging to Hermanas de la Providencia have been generous not only with their hospitality but also with their quirky sense of humor, a trait necessary for survival in most places, few more so than Guatemala. Earlier drafts of the book profited from the scrutiny of Douglas Fetherling, Michael Shawcross, and Jamie Swift. The copyediting talents of Christopher D. Chung and Robert Clarke worked wonders with structure and organization. Helen Phelan, Sharon Mohammed, and Leah “Mesha” Huff created textual order out of handwritten and digital chaos. Lesley and Bill Taylor encouraged an association with the Toronto Star, Carl Neustaedter and Scott Anderson likewise with, respectively, The Globe and Mail and the Ottawa Citizen. Alastair Reid continues to be model and mentor, and I never pick up an issue of The New Yorker without thinking of him. Friends in Seville, among them Antonio Acosta, Alexandra Parma and Noble David Cook, Cristina GarcĂ­a Bernal, Juan Gil, Carmen GĂłmez, JosĂ© HernĂĄndez Palomo, Juan Marchena FernĂĄndez, JosĂ© Manuel Peña GirĂłn, Antonio Reyes del Pulgar, JuliĂĄn Ruiz Rivera, Pilar Sanchiz, Consuelo Varela, and ElĂ­as Zamora, make my sojourns in that marvelous city ever more memorable. Marie Delattre graciously allows her home in Antigua to serve as my base while I am in Guatemala, where I have long enjoyed a rewarding affiliation with the Centro de Investigaciones Regionales de MesoamĂ©rica.

SPF remains for "sun insurance consider" and shows the time span you can stay in the sun; you figure the SPF by the quantity of minutes you can stay in the sun without blazing normally (For instance, if your skin turns red following 10 minutes in the sun, a sunscreen with SPF of 15 ought to permit you to burn through 150 minutes in the sun.) However, concerns have crested about what is in your sunscreen and exactly how successful sunscreens truly are. Numerous sunscreens infiltrate the skin and add to the substance over-burden that your body is as of now subjected to with day by day advanced living.

In this way, "how" you regard sunscreen as a skin protectant is not imperative – sunscreen ought to be utilized just as one piece of your way to deal with guarding your skin amid the late spring; it can't be the main technique and it isn't secure. 

On the off chance that sunscreens trigger sensitivities, breakouts and other skin issues for you, change from substance sunscreens to mineral sunblocks (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) to check whether this enhances things for you

Stay out of the sun between the hours of 10am and 3pm. The most sizzling part of the day amid the mid year is the most harming time.

Offer your skin a reprieve. By watching the climate over summer, you can work out the days when you won't have to slather on the chemicals, for example, when it's pouring with downpour or it's an extremely cloudy day.Be certain to pop on your cap and cover attire as common since UV beams still infiltrate the mists; you can in any event permit your skin a break from the sunscreen.
