of Effective Ministry Security at the request of Military Prevention Institute (GPI), are currently carrying out an eviction in the island community of Punta Gorda, Roatan.
The more than 40 families are forcibly evicted, living in the area known as Punta Gorda, located in the community of the same name.
is outrageous that while the State of Honduras boasts of a policy of inclusion and celebrate with pomp the International Year of African descent, the military ordered the Ministry of Security for an eviction order.
GarÃfunas we suffer a second expulsion in the Caribbean. Just a few days is commemorated on 12 April, the arrival our people in Honduras, specifically the island of Roatan, after being expelled by the British on the island of San Vicente in 1797.
territorial pressures affecting our people, originating from the speculation caused by the tourism industry. Projects such as Banana Coast, Micos Lagoon, in the not too distant future called Model City, have instigated an attack to dislodge in Punta Gorda and in most mainland communities, which are targets for businessmen, politicians and the military which exploit the gaping loophole in Honduras.
Since the coup of 2009, have intensified regional pressures on the Garifuna people. Eviction in Punta Gorda is part of the "Christian humanimo" of the current administration, the club that seeks to impose its vision of "democracy" of minorities associated with the ruling party.
The Garifuna of Punta Gorda, lack of a title to their territory, despite having danced for government administrations in power, usually held in Punta Gorda with rituals to the anniversaries of our arrival in Honduras.
How to explain the State of Honduras and related organizations at the summit this eviction think Afrodescendietenes made in the month of August this year. Enough
the expulsion of the Garifuna people of Honduras.
