digging up more photos 🫶🏽 i believe these were taken during the end of the Guatemalan civil war (genocide), 1989.

looking through some family archives.
this is my great-aunt in tribal regalia. the specific regalia in this photo has been passed down and continued to be worn by the newer generation of my family.
makes me so grateful that our ancestry was documented and preserved so well by my family.
