«El clamor de la tierra» is a historical essay by Rigoberta Menchú and the Committee for Peasant Unity, published by Tercera Prensa in paperback (127 pages).
The book reconstructs the trajectory of the Committee for Peasant Unity in the highlands of Guatemala: its organization, its growth, its repression, and its reorganization. It combines Rigoberta Menchú's testimony with a collective narrative that denounces the misery, racism, and exploitation suffered by the indigenous population, and asserts their capacity for resistance and struggle.
