Honduran campesinos under the gun Pt.2

Land conflict in Aguán is setting precedent for conflicts to come in post-coup Honduras.


In Part two of two on the land conflict in the Aguán Valley, we look at the roots of the conflict, and the motivation for the campesinos to begin the land occupation that eventually won them 11,000 hectares. We also look at what the experience in Aguán means for other conflicts in a country where the power struggle that gave rise to the June 2009 coup is far from over.
Including interviews with Father Ismael "Melo" Moreno, Rosemary Joyce, and reporting from the land occupation in question.
Produced by Jesse Freeston.
