Whereas she claimed her family has been dispossessed from its land by white oppressors, the property was actually lost in a quarrel with her father's Indian in-laws. A younger brother who died in starvation was imaginary, as was the burning alive of another brother at the hands of the Guatemalan military. Many refuse to acknowledge the substance of her politics, that she was a functioning leader of the URNG, the Marxist guerilla movement that wreaked havoc on Guatemala for decades. I doubt it. But let's wait and see if the cultural and political left in the United States disowns one of its own.
Truth does matter, even if it has a political agenda attached.
Biologists were excited when they had a rare chance to conduct an experimental test on mice that had every indication that its results would turn out to support the theory. But when the experiment was completed, the scientists found that the results were not what they expected. Now researchers are asking whether the theory is wrong or whether the experiment is flawed. The theory being test was developed by D. David Haig, an evolutionary biologist at Harvard University. In essence, he argued, in polygamous species, males will develop genes that make their offspring grow quickly and females will develop genes to counteract those male genes.
