Justice in Your Cup- A Coffee Producers Perspective

Mr. Herlindo Hernandez Pu is a coffee and macadamia nut farmer from the San Salvador Xolwitz cooperative in Retalhuleu, Guatemala. He is with the Campesino Committee of the Highlands (CCDA) in Guatemala.

A new film, Madre Tierra, highlights the work of the CCDA. For centuries, the distribution of land has been at the centre of Guatemala's violent story. Guatemala has the worst land distribution in the Americas, and campesino farmers struggling to feed their families are facing greater obstacles to gaining access to a plot of land. "Madre Tierra" follows one campesino organization, the Campesino Committee of the highlands (CCDA), as they push for getting land into the hands of campesino families.

Presented by Breaking the Silence and JUDES (Just Us Development and Education Society)
