You may not have heard of the Garifuna people. They’re people with a unique culture who live mostly in coastal Central America. Descendents of runaway African slaves and local indigenous groups. They have their own language, religion – and lands. But the Garifuna in Honduras say their land is under siege.
Several of their leaders have been killed as they fight to defend it. But finding justice is proving hard in a country where impunity and corruption reign.
