Who Killed Berta Cáceres?
I am currently reading Nina Lakhani's important exposé of the murder of Honduran indigenous leader Berta Cáceres. Killed in 2016, Lakhani contextualizes Cáceres' murder within context of the 2009 U.S.-backed coup that ousted President Manuel Zelaya and initiated a wave of repression (particularly against LGBT, feminist, environmental, labor and indigenous leaders) that continues to this day. Lakhani follows Cáceres from her early participation in the Salvadoran civil war to her co-founding of the Council on Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras (COPINH) to her fight against the Agau Zarca dam of the sacred Rio Gualcarque. You can purchase the book here (a free e-book is available with purchase) and listen to an interview with the author here.
