Transcription
I believe that is why many, many campesinos joined the struggle. Seeing entire families killed, what they did was join up. Join the struggle, because there was no other choice. So, I was never armed. My life was, well, in organizing, in that side of things; I went with groups of people to activities in San Salvador. I was a founder of the CCR (Association of Communities for the Development of Chalatenango). I am very proud of that. I was in the meeting in San Salvador when it was founded and now it is an association that does a lot to help the communities, you know? I feel very happy about that, yes.
