Letter on behalf of the Comité Campesino del Altiplano written by the Student Committee of Librarians Without Borders at the University of British Columbia
The Student Committee of Librarians Without Borders at the University of British Columbia have drafted a letter on behalf of Leocadio Juracan, leader of the Comité Campesino del Altiplano (CCDA). LWB@UBC relies on coffee produced by the CCDA to raise funds for community development projects.
The members of the Student Committee of Librarians Without Borders at the University of British Columbia (LWB@UBC), write this letter with great concern regarding the most recent attacks against the Comité Campesino del Altiplano (CCDA), in particular the robbery of over 18,000 pounds of green coffee (café pergamino) and letters that have threatened the physical integrity of Leocadio Juracán, the National Coordinator of the CCDA and his family.
The full letter can be viewed at the LWB@UBC website.
