Mi dirigo verso la piazza principale di Tuxla, una citta' a circa un'ora e mezza da S.Cristobal. La giornata e' tersa, neanche una nuvola ed il sole e' caldissimo.
Davanti al palazzo del governo scorgo un gruppo di persone, alcuni cartelli attaccati alle apretri mi parlano di prigionieri politici.Mi danno i loro volantini e si avvicinano in gruppo. Le donne, in disparte, continuano to fan the flames of a stove.
