On June 28, 2009 the people of Honduras faced a rude awakening. Army
generals had forced elected President Manuel Zelaya onto a waiting plane and
whisked him away to Costa Rica. A military coup was underway. That’s when
Katia Lara picked up her camera and began filming. “Quien dijo miedo” covers
what the mainstream media didn’t: the story of how everyday Hondurans
organized to restore democracy in the absence of the rule of law.

Katia Lara is from an recognized family in the movement in Central America
for social justice and independence from the yanquis.

It’s a washcloth, it’s soap, it’s both! We made the soap, now we’re going to wrap it up in colorful wool, but not to keep it warm. As it is used on your skin, it gently exfoliates. When the soap is gone, the wool remains for use as a great scrubber to clean your sinks and tubs and it’s compostable!
