Ms. Myrna Castro, new Minister of Culture in Honduras, supported by
Micheletti and seemingly well-known as defender of physical burning of
books, has just dismissed Ms. Natalie Roque and Ms. Rebeca Becerra,
heads of National Archives and Book, respectively, and well-known
democrats. Some of the first measures adopted by the new Minister
involve destruction of records and press releases on Micheletti’s
past, as well as prohibition of publication and access to public
records, cancellation of literacy campaigns, closing of the Center for
Historical Research, which has become literally barracks, etc.
Condemnations/Rejections will be welcomed.
