  • Xalala Project and Mother Jones Article
    September 11, 2006 GUATEMALA: MORE DAMN ìDEVELOPMENTî PROJECTS ñ The XALALA Project For many years, RA has supported efforts to get reparations for the massacres and forced evictions associated with the Chixoy hydro- electric dam project (1975-1985) funded by the World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank. Even as the WB and IDB refuse to remedy the crimes and abuses associated with that ìdevelopmentî project, the Guatemalan government proceeds with more large-scale dam- hydroelectric ìdevelopmentî (read: ìbig businessî] projects on the very same Chixoy river. We reproduce a Mother Jones article concerning the planned ìXalala dam projectî that will destroy the environment and well-being of poor and indigenous returned-refugee communities, including that of COPAL AA where RA has been supporting community development and education projects for many years. WHAT TO DO: see below. Please re-distribute this information, citing author and source. If you want on-off this elist: [email protected]. === ìAn elder leaned into the circle and clicked away in Q'eqchi'. "During the war, indigenous communities were most affected by the conflict and now, with these dams, it's the indigenous areas that are going to be most affected again," he said. "They no longer come to kill us with bullets. It's no longer with war that they want to kill indigenous people. Now it's with grand economic plans that they want to finish us off." === GUATEMALA: ON THE BANKS OF THE CHIXOY: AS GUATEMALA PLANS A MASSIVE NEW DAM, A VILLAGE OF SURVIVORS RISKS LOSING EVERYTHING ñ AGAIN By Michal Lumsden, Mother Jones Magazine, November/December 2005 Issue, www.motherjones.com A CROOKED CANDLE CAST SPLOTCHES of light across the cement floor of Diego Perez Andresí two-room house.

I Quests for Healing and Identity in the Fiction and Films of John Sayles A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English at Massey University, Albany, New Zealand Clare Elizabeth Peacock II Abstract Quests for Healing and Identity in the Fiction and Films of John Sayles John Sayles, writer and independent filmmaker, is, first and foremost a storyteller. The "stories" in his fiction and films tell of individuals trying to come to terms with personal and/or political issues and often lead their protagonists on journeys or quests in search of healing and identity. These quests frequently involve characters returning to places either from the past, or to the source of the trauma in order to understand and deal with the present. This thesis examines this particular aspect of the fiction and films of John Sayles. III Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Dr Brian McDonnell for guiding me through this journey. His patience, assistance and sense of humour have been greatly appreciated. I owe thanks also to Dr Chris Watson for his invaluable assistance and guidance in the early stages of this work. Finally, to my husband Grant and my daughters Mia and Chloe, I owe a debt of gratitude for supporting me and encouraging me throughout.
