WHY THIS AFRO-MEXICAN TOWN IS IN DANGER | Chacahua Oaxaca

Things are changing fast for this small Afro-mexican community on the coast of Mexico in the Oaxaca region.
The lagunas de Chacahua used to be a place of total abundance, where its inhabitants lived in symbiosis with nature, living simply off of fishery resources and tourism.
But the scarcity of their resources and foreigners buying their land to make their own business in Chacahua is pushing locals to despair as they realise the future generations might suffer the consequences of their inaction before it was too late.
Here is the moving testimony of this community who is now in danger and need to gather to find solutions for the future generations to come.
Thank you all for watching and for those amazing people who accepted to be part of this Chacahua documentary to raise awareness about the issues they are facing.
------------------------------------
Hi! My name is Rossanna and I've been traveling since 2009, living on the road and always spending as much time as I can with the locals. One of my biggest passion in life is to discover and learn about other cultures and of course, being in nature. As the year passed by my passion for videography never stopped increasing. I am now a filmmaker/explorer and me and my boyfriend Nico have created our own production company called Blue Dreams Productions. With those documentaries, we try to give a voice to all those people who have a message to share with the world and who can have a positive impact on it.
You can follow me on instagram where I post more raw adventures in my stories and talk about a lot of different topics like mindfulness and sustainability :)

    Africa should take them. Africa enrich themselves from the slave trade by capturing chaining and selling their own people for profit. We the Amerindians are the victims of the greed of the Africans and the Europeans. I'm Zapotec Amerindian and I was homeless, starving for the 15 years of my life, i still have two elderly brothers who I help who are homeless, the USA stole more than 1/2 of mexican territory which Black Athletes millionaires and Oprah Wimphry who enjoy the priviliges that the US government stole and gave you from the blood sweat and tears of the Amerindian while the Amerindians of mexico starve. All of the Caribbean is occupied by Afro people that the European countries have stolen from us the Amerindians. Without the blood sweat and tears of the Amerindian all of you would be homeless.

As property taxes and other expenses rise in the area, they will be forced to sell. It's sad, but true. I wish it didn't have to be that way!

    I love this town. I was there in 1989 for a couple of months in the spring, on a Pacific Surfari from California to S Mexico with an Australian couple I'd met commercial fishing in AK and WA. To make a long and interesting story short, we stopped our southward journey at Chacahua. No need to explore any further, this place was it. The break then was pretty consistent, not too big, but a lot of fun. There were no other white folks, but us, there. I remember the style of the buildings being much different than in the rest of Mexico. More rounded parts, more African. There were two, if I remember, maybe three restaurants in town. We'd try to steadily rotate every day so they all got some of our money. I went fishing with the locals in the lagoons, and out on the Pacific. We came in in the afternoon, and the women in the beach palapas who had been watching the children all day would take their share first, to feed everyone. It was our perfect place and where we stayed until all of us went our separate ways back home. Everyone in Chacahua and Galera was sooo wonderful. I LOVED it as an unknown small-town hometown. It was known by surfers in the day by some random code name I don't remember. We found it in a magazine. A couple of years after we were there, there was a National Geographic piece on the place. How wonderful it was for me to see my friends on the color pages of Nat Geo. That was a highlight. Gracias a mis anfitriones de ese día, Juan y Maricella.

    A beautiful piece but these problems are nothing new. It’s happened thousands of times around the world. If the community can’t organize itself then others will come in and take over. I know similar villages in Mexico have faced the same issues and effectively taken control. People are coming here for the waves and a simple tax and a commitment to not sell land would help immensely.

    @@papaadwoa569 the tourist economy (hostels, surf schools, restaurants) is less in the possession of people who are from Chacahua (a place with very little other economic opportunity) and increasingly more in that of people from outside, e.g. expats from foreign countries, or outside investors without a personal connection to the place. This is taking the form of a significant amount of more built infrastructure, which is not being balanced by reinvestment in the community, such as balancing the greater environmental impact of more people with a waste treatment plan taking into account human health and the ecosystem

    When I was a kid, I used to go to Jalisco with my grandparents. I was amazed when I saw the Huachelo women wash in the river, (my grandfather was a Huachelo who migrated to USA). The community built them a wash area so they wouldn't pollute the river with soap. However this is the ocean. We have to do our part! We need to stop so much plastic! Glass is so much cleaner. I can not find regular water in glass bottles in any store! Only mineral water. I wonder about autism, there was a time when everything came in glass bottles, autism became more prevalent when we started getting so stuck on plastic, also cancer.

    WHY do they keep calling them "Afro-Mexican" ? These are Indigenous Mexicans. Not everybody with dark skin came from so-called Africa. Keep in mind that the spanish invaded Mexico and other parts of the Americas which is where the lighter skin tone comes from. The same thing was done in Hawaii and North America when people from other parts of europe came over.

"pan del día" is a figurative way to call food in general not only bread.
