The Silent Holocaust, also known as the Guatemalan Genocide, was a brutal period in the history of Guatemala. This dark chapter in human history saw the extermination of an estimated 200,000 Indigenous people, mostly Mayan, by the Guatemalan government and military forces between 1960 and 1996. Despite the enormity of this tragedy, it remains relatively unknown to the wider world.
In this video, we aim to shed light on this devastating event in history and its impact on the people of Guatemala. We will explore the reasons behind the genocide, the methods used by the government and military forces to execute their plan, and the aftermath of the violence.
Throughout the video, we will hear from survivors, witnesses, and experts who will share their first-hand experiences and knowledge of this period in Guatemala's history. We will also examine the international community's response to the genocide and the ongoing struggle for justice and accountability.
By examining the Silent Holocaust, we hope to educate viewers on this tragic event and encourage them to reflect on the importance of human rights and the role of governments in protecting their citizens. We also aim to highlight the continued need for international attention and action to ensure that such atrocities never happen again.
