This book is a photographic journal of a day in the life of indigenous Indians protesting with fire blockades on the Pan American Highway against the U.S. free trade talks. Throughout most of South America, people struggle to make a living. More than half the people in Ecuador today live in poverty. In 2006, the Andean countries were negotiating a free trade pact with the United States. Washington decided to make changes in order to freely export American goods to South America. The indigenous groups understood that importing to Ecuador would flood their markets and make a stressed economic situation worse. . CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THIS BOOK FOR FREE
