Opening Ceremony- Translated from Spanish

In the first place we must know that there cannot be a negotiation if there is not more of an egalitarian, relationship in the world and that there is a parity regarding political strength. Political will is the starting point to reaching a negotiated peace in the world. My experience as a witness of the genocides which occurred in Guatemala, I have learned that there is not such thing as a just war. No war is just.
The experience from Guatemala has also shown us that there is no truth within a war situation. One has to finish the war first, and then the truth comes out. The truth of war is painful because women are raped, children are killed, and turmoil occurs in the civil society. This truth cannot just be shared amongst the people directly involved in the conflict. This truth is a truth for all. Everyone must learn this truth. Therefore, the peace cannot be kept only in the hands of those who are undertaking conflict. The peace process must be broadened.
Because the parties undertaking war both want to win the war, we cannot wait for a win

Question:
Now I have a question from Prospect High School: They want to know what is the conflict between you and the government of Guatemala.
Well I think it's not exactly a conflict between the government and myself. I'm not subject to any political party I respect all the parties, I'm not a part of the government. I've maintained my autonomy as a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, as an indigenous woman, but also as president of the Menchu foundation. I have worked to build the foundation, and for it or myself, never to be an instrument of the state. We have some very specific plans and we have our own agenda, from working with international organizations, like the UN, and also an agenda within Guatemala. This is the role of a Nobel Prize recipient. I have decided not to be a government employee and I think I will work like that in the future. Therefore, I hope that with the new Guatemalan government we’ll have better coordination, better compatibility, but I do not expect to be an employee of the new government. This is very important because, from time to time, people will ask if I will be a presidential candidate, and that, I will not do. I have my own mission for which I am very happy. Within the next month we are working on our agenda for the year 2000, for how to implement the International Year of the Culture of Peace. This International Year of the Culture of Peace must transcend borders and involve all nations, so we can together study a new possibility for creating peace and a new possibility for how to create peace in the world. So I’m involved in these projects and I can't be in Guatemala all the time because my role goes beyond that.

THE NOTEBOOK
Rigoberta Menchu: From peace prize to controversy
Eric Unmacht Rigoberta Menchu, awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1992, has long championed basic rights for indigenous peoples in Guatemala and around the world. She has fought to preserve the Mayan culture, of which she is an integral part. Born in 1959 in a northwestern village of Guatemala, Ms. Menchu is a member of the Quiche, a subgroup of the Mayan people who constitute 60 to 80 percent of the country's population. Like many families in the mountainous region who subsisted on beans and corn grown on small plots, the Menchus migrated seasonally to the coast to pick coffee beans or cotton on large plantations. LAUREATE FOR PEACE: Rigoberta Menchu, 1992 Nobel Peace Prize winner, still champions indigenous rights.
GREGG NEWTON/REUTERS But in the 1970s her family was swept up in the long struggle between wealthy landowners, indigenous peoples, and US-supported government forces in Guatemala that, according to human rights groups, eventually took the lives of 200,000 people in a country of 11 million. Victims of the war included Menchu's brother, mother, and father, who was killed during a 1980 occupation by activists of the Spanish Embassy.

    http://staff.esuhsd.org/~balochie/studentprojects/rigomenchu/background.html
    Background Rigoberta Tum was born in 1959 in the village of Chimel, Guatemala and is still "going strong". This village is a type of community continuing the millennium-old Maya culture. The Mayas have been around for thousands of years. As a child, Menchu worked in fields and later in the city as a domestic employee. She lived in the midst of injustice, misery, and discrimination, all of which are the every day life of the people of Guatemala. Different members of her family were tortured and killed by the armed forces. While under persecution, Menchu was exiled to Mexico in 1980. Rigoberta is a very intelligent self-educated woman. She has shown herself how to be a natural leader. Menchu became an active worker in labor and human-rights groups and also in the defense and promotion of the rights and values of Indigenous Peoples. In 1983 she wrote a book. Rigoberta is an activist for peace. She is known all around the world for defending world rights. Menchu also stood up for her beliefs of Guatemalans being treated better. Rigoberta received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1992. She was the youngest person ever to receive this award. She dedicated the Nobel Peace Prize to her loving and caring father. The Nobel Peace Prize strongly acknowledges Rigoberta Tum Menchu. She was acknowledged for representing the people of Guatemala. These citizens are the victims of repression, racial discrimination, and poverty.

    An Interview with Rigoberta Menchu
    By NACLA editors, May/June 1996
    Rigoberta Menchu Tum, a Quiche Maya, won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1992 in recognition of her work on behalf of indigenous peoples and poor ladinos in Guatemala. With the prize money, she established a foundation in her name to continue the same work. In early 1994, she returned to Guatemala after 13 years in exile in Mexico. In anticipation of the December, 1995 national elections, her foundation launched a National Campaign for Civic Participation, a non-partisan effort to encourage women and indigenous people to vote. Her decision not to take sides in the election angered some in the Guatemalan left, with whom she had collaborated in the 1980s. Menchu was interviewed in February in the foundation's New York offices by the NACLA editors. What motivated you to return to Guatemala in 1994?

    After seeing her family tortured and murdered, Rigoberta Menchu Tum has turned her life of agony into a quest for peace. Menchu - now a Nobel Peace-Prize winner, activist, author and mother - spoke yesterday before more than 1,000 UA students, faculty and community members crammed into the University of Arizona's 600-seat Gallagher Theatre. Clothed colorfully in traditional Mayan attire, Menchu spoke about issues central but not limited to Latin America, such as conflicts between American Indians and the ruling class. "We have to break the silence - have allies and dialogues," she said. Menchu won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1992 for her work in Guatemala as a political activist for human rights and equality for women and indigenous people. Shortly after winning the peace prize, Menchu set up the Rigoberta Menchu Tum Foundation, with offices in Guatemala City, New York City and Mexico City.

    By Camille, 4th Grade Childhood Rigoberta Tum Menchu was born on January 9th 1959, into the peasant family of Vicente and Juana Tum Menchu. They lived in Chimel Guatemala at the time. She was the sixth of ten children, and had a hard life. Her family farmed cotton and coffee and worked fifteen hour shifts each day. When Rigoberta was seven years old her family went into terrible debt, that same year the Menchu children became severely ill and were sick for many weeks with very little treatment. After their illness their lives were still hard. They had little money and bills to pay. As you can see, these were difficult years for the Menchu family. Adult Life Turning Point The death of her parents was an emotional time for Rigoberta, but it didn’t stop her from working for Guatemalan human rights. She fought long and hard for her people, never giving up and always keeping violence the farthest choice and, convincing others who chose that path to change, and to try to help Guatemala, not to destroy it. The next year (1981), the Guatemala Government was violently stopping rebel groups such as the C.U.C (Campesino Unity Committee) in which Rigoberta was working in. She was forced into hiding. It became so dangerous that she had to flee to Mexico for safety. She stayed there for a year while writing her life story, I Rigoberta Menchu.

    By Sadie, 4 th Grade Childhood Rigoberta Tum Menchu, the 6 th child of 10 siblings, was born on January 9 th , 1959 in Chimel, Guatemala. Her parents, Vincent and Juana Tum Menchu and their children raised cotton and coffee. In 1996 the Menchu family was deeply in debt. In the same year the Menchu family became ill. They couldn’t pay money for medical problems because they owed money that they didn’t have. It took many weeks before they recovered. Although her childhood was hard she grew up to be an amazing person. Adult Life Right before her mother’s death Rigoberta was in a group called the C. U. C. This group helped Indian peasants who were slaves by shutting down the farm where they worked because they were only getting paid 75 centavos a day which is less than a U.S. dollar. In 1981 and 1982 Rigoberta went into hiding and then it wasn’t safe so she had to flee to Mexico. She had to go into hiding because anybody who disagreed with the Guatemalan government would be tortured, killed or thrown out of their houses. Rigoberta came back to Guatemala but stayed quite a time in Mexico. This part of her life was divided between Mexico and Guatemala. Turning Point Rigoberta Menchu was very tempted to make peace for many reasons. Here are some of the reasons. Her mom and brother were kidnapped, tortured and killed. Some Indian peasants were getting paid less than some white people who were working less. There were also some racial murders going on. After these terible things Rigoberta decided to devote her life to peace making.
