As a criminal trial continues into its 6^th week against David Castillo, paid coordinator of the hit squad that assassinated COPINH co-founder Berta Caceres on March 3, 2016, as OFRANEH and the SUNLA investigation team continue to demand justice for the forced disappearance of four Garifuna community defenders on July 18, 2020, La Lucha Sigue - directed by Sam Vinal (Mutual Aid Media) - has been released, documenting COPINH and OFRANEH-led Indigenous and Black resistance in Honduras.
La Lucha Sigue combines breathtaking cinematography with intimate access and creative storytelling as it follows the courageous, empowering work and struggles of COPINH and OFRANEH.
The Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras (COPINH), co-founded by the assassinated Berta Cáceres, works with the Lenca Indigneous peoples of the mountains or western Honduras. The Black Fraternal Organization of Honduras (OFRANEH) is the Garifuna people’s territorial and human rights defense movement, led by Miriam Miranda along the northern Caribbean coast of Honduras.
Together, OFRANEH and COPINH are holding down the frontlines of resistance in the face of the US and Canadian-backed, drug-trafficking military regime headed by President Juan Orlando Hernandez, as they work to resist and dismantle interlocking systems of capitalism, patriarchy, racism and on-going colonialism / imperialism.
