Eight men are on trial in Honduras for the murder of environmentalist Berta Ciceres, who was gunned down in her home in La Esperanza in 2016. A verdict is expected this week. The assassination of Ciceres came a year after she won the Goldman Environmental Prize for her work protecting indigenous communities and her campaign against a massive hydroelectric dam project. We speak with Dana Frank, professor emerita at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Her new book is titled, "The Long Honduran Night: Resistance, Terror, and the United States in the Aftermath of the Coup."
