On March 22, PBI-USA hosted a World Water Day screening of La Sangre de la Tierra (The Blood of the Earth), a documentary about community struggles against hydroelectric dams in Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras.

After the screening, Martín Fernández Guzman, a member of the Broad Movement for Dignity and Justice (MADJ) spoke about the resistance in Honduras.

Then Maria Caal Xol of the Peaceful Resistance of Cahabón, a collective of 38 Maya Q’eqchi communities, spoke about the resistance to the Oxec and Renace hydroelectric dams on the Cahabón River and its tributaries in Guatemala.
