Book excerpt: Our Culture Is Our Resistance: Repression, Refuge, and Healing in Guatemala is a stunning document of this tiny Central American country, revealing stories of life and death, of hope and despair, and of struggles for survival, respect, and truth. For the past ten years Jonathan Moller has photographed communities uprooted by war in Guatemala. The beauty and strength of Moller's one hundred forty-seven tritone portraits and the accompanying texts not only document and preserve the faces and events associated with this land and its history, but also display for the viewer the humanity and dignity of these largely Mayan indigenous peoples. Sponsors and official endorsers of the book include Amnesty International, the Soros Foundation, Global Exchange, The Nation Institute, the Photo Review, Witness for Peace, and Cultural Survival.
