Description
Interview participants:Dilio Aguilar Puerto y and Manuel Garcia Concha Marcelina Canul Poot was 79 years old at the time of the interview. She was the niece of Felipa Poot. Her mother was Felipa’s sister, but she was a different sister from Isabel. Marcelina married Don Pedro Puuc Mok when she was 26 years old and they were married for 56 years. She spoke of Agustín Solís (the Municipal President and a powerful political boss) who killed two people by hanging them in an almond tree, and his wife Teodora Solís. She also talked about Profesor Cervera who encouraged activism in Kinchil because there was no school and of Felipa Poot Tzuk who joined his cause. Marcelina was 9 years old when she entered school. Her husband (Don Pedro Puuc Mok) was afraid to speak up or join in political agitation but she was not.
