Resistir para Existir: La Lucha de los Cucapá
"Resistir para Existir: La Lucha de los Cucapá" is a video about the plight of the Mexicali, who are being denied ancient fishing rights. To quote the maker of this video:
"This short documentary tells the story the Cucapá, an Indigenous people of Mexicali, who have been denied fishing permits, even though they ... have been fishing in their valley for over 9,000 years; indeed, even before this area was considered Mexico."
It is a sad tale, but one that should be given attention. In Spanish with English subtitles, just under 18 minutes, a very well made documentary. By The Video Commission The Other Campaign on the Other Side, February 20, 2007. Please view the video here...
