The general sentiment of the protests as sited by Indigenous leader Paulina Culum, was that they were “against the injustice, inequality, and corruption that have plagued communities in Guatemala over the last 500 years, and continue to do so today”.
Die allgemeine Stimmung der Protestler richtete sich, so die indigene Anführerin Paulina Culum, “gegen die Ungerechtigkeit, Ungleichheit und Korruption, die Gemeinden in Guatamala seit über 500 Jahren heimsuchen, und es heute noch tun”.
