Honduras: Escaping violence and poverty | DW Documentary
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ม.ค. 2023
- Every year, tens of thousands of people from the central American nation of Honduras leave their home country to try and reach the United States. A dangerous journey that often ends in death. The refugees are escaping poverty, gang violence and natural catastrophes.
Honduras: a nation hit ever more frequently by extreme weather such as tropical hurricanes and flooding. Almost 70 per cent of the population lives in poverty; more than 50 per cent of those are in dire need. Violent incidents, gang warfare and abductions are part of daily life here. The murder rate is one of the highest in the world. Many Hondurans see no other option but to leave. They are undeterred by the high cost; the risk that they’ll die on the journey or be murdered by human traffickers; or just how unlikely it is that they’ll actually make it to the US at all. Often, it’s the men that leave; their wives and children stay behind and never hear back from their husbands and fathers, even if they’ve managed to enter the US and are living illegally there. The money they promised to send to their families never arrives. As a result, more and more women feel compelled to flee themselves. They might take one of their children along, or leave them all with relatives. The country is losing its life blood - in some regions, villages are populated only by children and elderly people. Aid organizations try to help the most desperate, but even they are powerless to stem the tide of refugees.

Watching this did not feel like a documentary but rather a personal diary of the individuals. TY for capturing this in such a beautiful manner.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Be sure to check out our channel for more content.
yes, it touched me personally ( I have students from Honduras) and DW really did an amazing job portraying the situation and allowing us to get to know these special people there. The mother and little girl will haunt me.
Watching this makes you count your blessings and appreciate them.
heart breaking story😢 keep strong hondurians❤ watching from philippines.
What a sick society are we living in.. Big thank you DW for highlighting these topics and increasing awareness. Only as a society we can help with fixing such problems.
Everywhere same and reason is "Politicians".
THEY NEED TO FIGHT AND BUILD THEIR OWN COUNTRY UP!! IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO LET ALL OF SOUTH AMERICA IN THE US AND NOT BECOME A BANANA REPUBLIC TOO!!!
We should invade and conquer and expand the us into a giant country
@@HoneyLove77 Thank you!!! 💯👏🏽🙌🏽
Sicker still is that this anti-American administration is encouraging them to come here hoods and all.
Watching from Belize central america I'm from and prayers for our central american neighbors Honduras and thanks for the upload DW News of Germany!!!✌🏽🙏🌎🇧🇿🇭🇳
I served on a missions trip in 2014 in different parts of Honduras, a life changing reality check for sure. Very humbling. We take so much for granted in 1st world countries.
Off the backs of 3rd world country.
@@brajan_art Get away from social media.
@@Jonathan-Pilkington impractical
@@brajan_art and controlling your life. At least take a break from it.
I don't understand why North Americans think they need to bring the bible to an already Christian country. Ok, charity work is much needed, also development aid, teaching, etc. You may also talk about the bible and Jesus Christ. But why founding new denominations enticing away followers from other churches. That is not missionizing, that is proselytism.
I feel terrible for that elderly mom wondering whether her son is dead or alive. Her eyes are filled with so much pain, it's almost tangible. It's so very heartbreaking for anyone seeing that because WE all know that her son is no longer with us. I think, in her heart, she knows, as well, but that kind of pain is just too great to face and acknowledge without real proof. May our Lord be with that beautiful mom (and her daughter) as she wonders and worries about her dear son, and fears the worst.
That part got my eyes watery, DW should try and help her with some information about her son because that woman is in extreme pain and she might end up loosing her life
I’ve said this before……BUILD BOAT HOUSES…….AND NOT JUST THERE……EVERYWHERE..…ALL OVER THE WORLD…….AND PRAISE GOD……I GAVE CHINA TO THE CHINESE……TO SING CHINESE…..I GAVE SAMOA….TO THE SAMOANS…..TO SING SAMOAN…..I GAVE…GERMANY…..TO THE GERMANS…..THE WHOLE WORLD IS GUILTY…..PEOPLE ARE MANY …..ON THIS PLANET…..AND THEY SURVIVE BY BUILDING……WORKING….MOVING…..DRIVING…….AND MORE….FOR MONEY ……..THATS WHY THEY ARE DETERMINED NOT TO LEAVE BECAUSE ALL FOREIGNERS ARE ALL LIARS…..THEY ARE NOT HONEST……AND I DONT WANT NO ONE TO DIE……THEY HAVE TO KNOW GODS PEACE…..JESUS IS HIS SON….HES KIND AND FAIR…AND HE DOES WHATS RIGHT ON EARTH…..FOREVER…..PRAISE HIM
Our Lord... which one?
The pictures of his face photoshopped onto others were absolutely heartbreaking.
So God could help her get her sons back but not prevent them from getting kidnapped in the first place 🤔. How ridiculous
My mom used to live in Olancho to finish her studies and went to the church shown in the documentary!!! She says since the day she left Honduras 15 years ago, it hasn't changed a bit, I hope one day the economy grows and changes to a stable country :)
Lately are being “bombarded” with some awesome documentaries by DW. Thank you guys for your work!
did they mention the police that are honest, and are fighting drug traffickers and kidnappers? No? This isn't a documentary, its a sob story
@@davidanalyst671 It's a documentary that's titled "escaping violence and poverty" what do you spect they focus? They need to focus on the reasons on why people are escaping not something else
@@HaimRich94 Exactly. What david is saying needs a dedicated doc.
I know it's not the way it's supposed to be but I want to thank all of the Honduran Men I see every day working on repairing the roofs in my neighborhood here in Florida ✌🏽☮️🤘🏼 respect from me and I send healing hugs to the peoples of Honduras, hope things get better for us all
Here in Africa,its 2$ for more than 12hrs.It's hard😒😒
@New Moon pretty sure i will have to get a county loan to pay for a new roof...
which will be up to the county who they choose..probably local..but that doesnt really matter because youll never see anyone but south central Americans on roofs.. iits they way it is as for low price i planned ahead and am.locked in to.a low price i can easily afford, something doable by anyone willi to.work.hard rven lil.wages or low hours and save every penny
And hustle ..doesn't matter where or when you came here..thats democracy...
Thats the American Dream..alive and well..
@@segawajoseph1370 srry your pay isso pathetically low .. You deserve more
@@segawajoseph1370 Which part of Africa? The continent is huge.
@@susiefairfield7218 Why don't you move to Honduras seeing as you think how great they are? You could provide services for them with your legs.
As a Honduran, this is the best depiction of the situation in the country. The sad thing is that there's no hope in sight. The current government, as well as the last one, has extremely close ties to criminal organizations. Also, corruption has destroyed all government institutions at all levels.
@@Melinda_Ross But it does not compare to the countries in Central America.
Uncle Sam está detrás de esos gobiernos corruptos.
Vivo en Lexington Kentucky.
Conozco a muchos hondureños que han arriesgado sus vidas y muchas veces las de su familia ( hijos, padres, sobrinos, nietos)
Bienvenidos, catrachos.
Soy mexicana y apoyo a todos los que se arriesgan para vivir mejor.
@@florencebegole5251 Because Uncle Sam backs up the corrupt governments that are his lackeys.
@Rocío Aguilera actually it varies. Porque este gobierno actual no es para nada US friendly, and they are as bad or worse than the last one. Lo que esta detras de esto es poca educación and legislators who can't read or write. People in Honduras don't run for government to serve they run for government to steal. No matter their political stance. Some are US friendly, others aren't, but their end goal is the same. Take as much as I can while in government.
The title of the video should be: escaping the corruption
I teach many students who came from the area of Honduras where San Pedro Sula is, as well as other areas in Central America. I wish more people could see the conditions they came from, as I believe they would understand why they had to leave their home country and come here. I know watching this documentary was very impactful for me, even though I have heard many stories from my students.
An informative and sympathetic documentary from DW. When the criminality extends into the police force who end up extorting the extorters.....you know it's beyond bad.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
E e
Belize central america I'm from and i agree totally !! Prayers for Honduras!!
@@DWDocumentary Very well balanced documentary as usual. When I was growing up we held priests, governments, elders, police etc., to the highest of standards. Is anything sacrosanct anymore?
The best manager, and genuinely just one of the best people I ever met, came to America from Honduras. He used to tell us that he didn’t even have running water growing up, but he treated people with the level of kindness and understanding that Americans can’t even conceptualize. He had made a success story out of himself working for Ralph Lauren for 10+ years and married a beautiful woman, and I truly wish him all the happiness in life.
Thanks Arnon ❤️ you were the best
You should wish this for all good people not just illegal ones.
@@thespiritof76. 1) why do you assume he came here illegally 2) why do you think I don’t wish the best for everyone
You’re projecting your internalized racism. Plenty of Latin people have immigrated here legally. Stop finding things to complain about when people say good things about a community that doesn’t include you, they don’t have to.
@@annielynn8730 They don't have to come here illegally either.
Because you didn't wish the same thing for everyone else in your post did you?
@@thespiritof76. why would I, I wasn’t talking about everyone. I was talking about my manager. Again, stop being bitter when things don’t include you.
Thank You Lynn. You just described me too. I have the same story.
Thank you for treating the people featured in the documentary with sensitivity and respect, rather than like things to be gawked at or pitied. I learned a lot about the situation in Honduras through snapshots of people's real lives. I greatly appreciated being able to hear their stories from their own mouths. This was very well done.
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
I will find out after being gone since 1993 what Honduras is like. I am older now better than I was but still in good shape
Honduras gorgeous nation very nice citizens my people are
I am just curious how many Americans like me who married local ladies got same treatment for try to bring there wives to USA if they got same lies embassy of United States told me
Another slap in face my former state of Michigan I lived said lies I am unsafe behind wheel driving so stupid govt officers of state of mi pulled my driver permit for good so I can not drive at all rest of my life
I served with honor in us navy too and state of Michigan did not care.
Glad to be a us citizen but I will say just because i am in the US doesn't mean I didn't grow up dirt poor. Many people in the us live in horrific poverty too. And violence goes hand in hand with poverty...
I'M BORN AND RAISED IN USA. I DIDN'T GROW UP DIRT POOR IN USA IF YOU WORK HARD YOU CAN HAVE ANYTHING YOU WANT.
@@gladysrodriguez5647 working like w slave ain't no way to live.
the poverty experienced in places like honduras is on another level though
Okay..
It's unfortunate what the countries surrounding the US are going through but it's not ok to come into a country without respect to the laws. It's not right to come to the US illegally, receive assistance from the government, pay no taxes which ultimately put a strain on the hardworking people who are already struggling to survive themselves.
Absolutely heartbreaking and appalling!!! Prayers for the people of Honduras and of all Latin America..
Prayers are a way of acting like you care without actually helping anyone.
@@DavidSmith-ev1bd that's an atheist anyway, you think they pray?
My family comes from Honduras and El Salvador. I’m so grateful to be first generation born in USA. It’s really sad.
PLEASE GO BACK TO YOUR PARENTS COUNTRY, AND MAKE IT BETTER INSTEAD OF RUNNING AWAY FROM YOUR PROBLEMS
The extremely depressing part is that that the dangerous part isn't even the border crossing itself into the U.S. NOBODY reaches the border without paying the coyotes. Even if you were to reach the border on your own, as of right now you will be told to stay in Mexico until your asylum hearing. Then, the coyotes will find out you made it and didn't pay, and either need to come up with the money or it's lights out. That's assuming you're not kidnapped and sold into sexual slavery. There's a disconnect in information from countries like Guatemala / Honduras to Mexico. They only hear stories about success, never about the danger involving Mexico. As someone who lives in the U.S. I strongly caution against making this journey. Not because I have a problem with immigrants, but because they find thousands of bodies near the border every year. It's not like it was 15+ years ago where you simply ride a train to the promised land, wait until nightfall and hop the fence / cross the Rio Grande.
Mother's put their female children on birth control before they go. The cartel and our government are in this together. Obama is running the country behind the scenes.
Respect and prayers to the good people who just trying to make a better life for there selfs and families and to see wicked people hurt them makes me hurt god bless them all
Such a desperate and depressing situation. My heart goes out to all of the people suffering in Honduras. Another great DW documentary - thank you.
but the Maras are migrating north right with them
@@25oxendine And those who are not Maras will change once they can’t get a well paying job to make it well as they expected in America. They will get desperate and will do what the Maras do in Honduras.
itsallgoodoverhere.
Exactly people don't realize the repercussions of letting everyone come into America
@@its-all-good Tell(but they can't) that to people like Kayla Hamilton. These people are outta touch with the real world.
@@25oxendine You are 100% correct. Until reality lands in their lap (or near) they won't understand. It's a matter of time if the border remains open as it is.
I Rode through Central America back 2019 and found people there are helpful and generous!
same
Good thing you didn't encounter the gangsters.
I love to hear your story. You can omit anything you would not like to disclose and be completely anonymous. I am an Army vet, I can even provide security if you feel uneasy. I completely understand.
So much heart touching story. Stay strong all Hondurans and hope for better future.
My heartfelt thoughts ❤️ and love goes to the family members who lost their loved ones.
No, it's what they've voted for! Yet they hate their own decisions
One of my best friends ever Jose came from Honduras, h taught me to lay bricks I was just a mescla guy before. One night I heard crying I saw him out there in the porch sad for his family. Ship broke my heart
When corruption becomes a way of life in a society, it is so hard to undo that. On the other hand, people still want to give birth to a child in a society like this. Vicious cycle.
That's a depressingly shallow grasp of the issues. I'd say you put no thought & zero research In to it. Yet you make pronouncements. UGH.
@@shakiMiki I was born and raised in a developing country. not only putting on thought, I actually experienced it by living in it. The country I was born has no gang violence but pretty corrupt one in government level, yet large number of people still vote for the same party for years because that's how they make living. So, please don't make assumptions when you comment. I am just criticizing people, us, human. it's one way to look at the problem, not the one and only.
@@shakiMiki Your comment didn't show much thought and research either. You're just shooting down his valid point.
My friend a lot of these people are not educated. They don’t know any better. They use their children to produce.
That's how it is, the poorer the country the higher the birth rates, the richer the country the lower the birth rate is
What a beautiful county & people, devastated by corruption and poverty. A great doco to raise awareness and hopefully assistance to those affected
I felt the pain and tiredness of Honduras people. They want to escape their own homeland to find a comfortable life outside the country. 😢😭 The world are getting worst by the evil politicians and gangs.
Shame on the corrupt government. Shame.
who made them corrupt and for which purpose ?
and mexican cartels too taking adavantage of these poor people.
Feel sad for those who went in search of better place and couldn't make it.
I don’t. They can’t keep coming here illegally. Vote republican!!!!!!
I do also.
She has beautiful daughters and keeps strong for your future 😊👍💪
I see the pain, hopelessness in most of these people. So so sad.
The resilience of the Honduran people in the face of overwhelming challenges is truly inspiring. This documentary sheds light on their plight and the difficult choices they must make. Thank you for bringing attention to this important issue.
I try to watch documentaries from the countries my students come from. It is painful to watch the mother who does not know if her child is alive. The mother preparing to go with her special needs little girl. It is hard to find hope for Honduras. The people seem so stoic, resilient and hard working but too many circumstances (man made and nature made) are battling them.
Thank you Deutsche Welle for doing the work of reporting on places no one here goes or talks about.
If you can follow up about the mother and special needs child, that would be good. Many of us on this side care about each other and these precious children deserve the same our children do.
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
@Donnell Okafor let me explain you. I am Honduran. Here in Honduras only around 15% of the people finish High School. This value is even lower in rural areas. This is probably the typical family in which her husband took her away from her home when she was 15. Women in Honduras are submissive because otherwise she would probably become a victim of domestic violence. She didn't decide to have children. Women here have no voice or power to decide at home. They live to feed their man, have s*x when he wants, and raise their children. She can't get away because she is poor, she has three children, in her hometown she will never find a job and in the city nobody can take care of her kids while she's working. Finding a job in the city wouldn't be easy for her and salaries are extremely low.
In conclusion, she's not stupid, she lives in that situation because women have no choice here. You need to see life from the perspective of people here to understand that they are not free like you to decide what happens to their lives.
Is there any update on Greiby Sanchez and her daughters? Did the filmmaker keep in touch?
Did they end up leaving, and did they make it to the US or any other safer place? Did her daughter get the surgery yet? Hope the family is doing well.
Yes please give us an update
i tried looking up the names of the people especially the woman at the end but i found nothing i found greiby’s facebook and shes still active and shes still in olancho honduras
What was the name of the little girl with cerebral palsy?
Amazing work DW!!!
Thanks for watching and for the feedback!
Heartbreaking, simply heartbreaking
Talk about true grit. Starving while walking across countries in scorching heat. This reminds me to strong and to be grateful. Prayers for these families
I have never seen these people starving. They are usually overweight. If you want to see starving people, look at the documentaries on Yemen.
@@margaretnorvell9555 well I have talked to many of them and in particular I have talked to some about there trek across two countries . You can't learn everything from a documentary
Take care as always sending prayers from philippines🙏🙏
I had a friend of from Philippines invited me for breakfast.. it was sooo good. It’s very similar to Central American cuisine
@@TheRealHungryJoe It's because the Philippines is also a Hispanic country having been colonized by Spain for 333 years.

Don’t come to the U.S. we literally can’t even get our own people off the ground nor produce enough jobs for everyone. The homeless epidemic and levels are high and on the rise. 😣
@@misutasutanto6312 don't be offensive is only a nickname
How heartbreaking having to leave your children and having to chose among them, 😢because you have no chances or hope for a good future 😭
First off, it wouldn't have been that difficult if you don't have children that you can't afford to feed. It became a double-whammy of poverty and ignorance to family planning.
Not everything you see on TH-cam is accurate. There are plenty of situations where millions of people all over the world are into spiritual activities that invite the wicked. Most of them will have hard eating, raising families, etc.
Sincerely,
Great documentary, thanks for providing such high quality educational content

This shows how El Salvador is in the right track by dismantling the gangs.
The gangs are migrating to the USA
How's that crypto currency shift doing in El Salvador?
You are wrong...dont believe everything you hear...do your own research...its pure propaganda ...
@@ronnelacido1711 a bussiness run by thieves....
Not well.
In the past, I traveled to Honduras many times as part of my parish mission team, and as the advance man where I would prepare for the arrival of the team. We served in San Francisco de al Paz, in the heart of Olancho, primarily building water purification systems, latrines, and sending medical missions. I also spent much time in Juticalpa, the capitol of Olancho. I was in the very church shown in this video and knew Padre Alberto Cauci. I love Honduras because I love the people. In spite of their poverty, they are some of the kindest, most generous, hard working people I have ever met. Are there bad people? Of course, all cultures have bad people. Will someone tell me why US companies invest millions of dollars in Chinese industries, when we could be having those same products manufactured, if not in the US, at least in our Central American neighbors. Que Dios bendiga a Honduras y al pueblo hondureño.
Supply chain is difficult from there, little or deteriorating public utilities, security issues everywhere.
Look up CAFTA
@@quartermaster1976 I looked it up and it appears to address import/export. I was referring to manufacturing and business. In Honduras I saw evidence of Chinese business and investment everywhere. I did not see a lot of evidence of US business presence.

This documentary is so true and so sad !!
DW documentaries are just amazing ❤️.
Thanks a lot for watching and for your positive feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to comment and
are glad you like our content!
Sad and critical conditions!!
The sadness I have after watching this...
Even if you sent money directly to these people, the gangs would just come and take everything from them. First things first: the gangs have to go. But that's not going to happen when the government themselves is in on the action. If the government truly wanted to get rid of the gangs, it could be done. Colombia did it. The Philippines did it (although there was much bloodshed). You country simply cannot succeed when the people are being extorted by gangs.
The Philippines never did it because it seems that the gangs crept their way to government...our Senate and Congress is a circus right now. Duterte messed the justice system of the country so bad that the son of The Justice Secretary who was caught with illegal marijuana was abstained in just 3 months (a record), while a jailed senator due to trumped up charges is still in prison for more than 6 years and not to mention the thousands killed who were presumed to be doing illegal drugs.
The gangs are the fault of America. Illegals get arrested in US and then learn gang culture and tattoos. Then they are deported to Honduras and start gangs with the knowledge they learned from the US gangs in prisons.
Colombia still has gangs. The ELN is the biggest. No cartel nor syndicates can't afford to lose the world's biggest cocaine producer for obvious reasons.
God bless them
very beautiful and strong mother...
What a brave and intelligent mother who took right decision not sending her one daughter with her husband who left the family
DW Indeed provided informative and reality checked experiences. Big appreciation for your good effort DW. I feel so much pain to hear and watched this.

I've watched this morning a very good and deep investigation about how secret services are running and controlling from shadow my country, Romania.

Oh man so much people in pain in this world 😢 I hope that lady get news soon from her son
I have been living in San Pedro Sula for more than two years, I can say with certainty that this city has its own rules, like all cities, but if they are observed, no one will suffer. Farmers are given special respect and they should become the main characters of the programs, because despite the hurricanes and floods, Honduras has enormous natural resources that need to be developed. Nothing was ever solved by fleeing to the USA, and stories about how everything badly do not reflect reality, since examples of successful Hondurans who rose from the bottom without anyone's help are not shown. Yes, there is corruption, but show at least one country in which it does not exist? Honduras is a good country, but one that needs to be worked on together, not run away from.
You mean paying off local gang members so they don't rape and kill people?
Well said
I feel for these people. No one should have to live this way.
Watching this makes you want to count your blessings and appreciate them.
Most wonderful documentary coverage video about Honduras 🇭🇳 populations poverty & diving in violence circumstances...DW documentary coverage introduced depressed circumstances truly talking, opening minds & eyes opening...thanks for sharing
Great doc.
Very interesting and sad. Thank you
Many people that have tried to come to the USA have lost their lives on the way. Women, men and children. May their souls rest 🙏 ETERNALLY IN PEACE. MAY GOD COMFORT THESE FAMILIES LEFT BEHIND 🙏

watching this made me cry and looking at those sweet little children i understand why these families are doing this unbelievable journey to give them a better life. we live in a Beautiful world with such natural beauty and people cause this hell

Hi DW ,it would be helpful if you guys put the date this was filmed and went it aired to gives us better context.Thabk youb
Omg this is so depressing 😢 we live in a cruel world.
While this is sad, the answer isn’t to migrate. The answer is for all those dissatisfied to join together and overthrow the gangs/government. All M&L class ppl in every country r struggling to some extent around the world dur to extremely high income and wealth inequality levels worldwide. U don’t make Honduras better by leaving and it creates problems in the US. Poverty and struggling r bad in the US as well. Americans in general don’t like all the migration and ppl disrespecting our laws. Come the legal way, wait ur turn, or please don’t come to the US.
This !
My wife is from Honduras and is living there while immigration takes it time. And it’s so sad how the people live. I’ve seen it first hand. And this documentary brings it home. I’m so sad. Thank you for letting me see this. Awareness is good but action is necessary!
Thank you Dw
Thanks for watching!
I feel so very, very sad for the mothers that are trying the best for their children. I can't imagine seeing my child starve.
Really? They keep popping one kid after another…except here they’re all on social assistance
Adults seem to have plenty to eat.
I feel sorry for the kids, why have multiple children here if it’s so dangerous?
Almost all the people in these documented have multiple children when these places have been dangerous since before most of them were born.
@@Jy35448 this, people really fail to acknowledge how these people will have kid after kid in these dangerous countries, THEN want to cross over.
@@malayaanderson8222 hello, I'm honduran and i have to tell these people have no fault for this.
Our sexual education it's terrible. Even the emergency contraceptive pill it's illegal!.
So they have a lot of kids but they don't the access for contraceptives .
They need to fight for their country
Without weapons? No chance at all. US can help them by supplying them with some AR-15s to even their chances against the scumbags (gangs and corrupt government). Fight fire with fire for their families, and regain their dignity.
God bless Honduras beautiful country please lets save it
May God be with you and bless you...I love you jesus...
It’s crazy how many kids they have…
It will take some miracle for these Latin American countries to ever fix their problems. Corruption truly corrupts everything.
A miracle?
Im from Olancho and know this reallity.
Yes a chinese miracle!
Less negative manipulation from US gov.
Less americans weapons fueling our problems.
But yet Americans are supposed to be welcoming to this🙃
@@sweetla4750 That's because these days literally everything is framed as being white people's fault and white people's responsibility and expense to fix it.
Welcoming to what? There is only so much room and money to go around. The US is deeply in debt from giving money to other countries and causes for decades. We welcome legal immigration.
That little girl looks just like my daughter. It makes me want to cry.
DW best ever documentary Channel. Bus trips from Brazil is one the best also.
May God bless and protect you Father Cauci....
Hoping for the safety of her children and also for All the little ones who are suffering in my neighboring Country of Honduras.
Its such a beautyfull country. Its such a shame 😭

I work construction . One of the few white guys that can "Hang " .. I have worked alongside Hondurans , I ask questions of them , What was it like getting to The US ? and be told " We got robbed all the way here " One hard worker named Cesar used to trip me out , He knew very few words of English , Always smiling , We went to an All You can Eat and I never saw anyone eat like that , He mixed up everything , Gravy , beets , broccoli , chicken , meat , everything into a swirl , And licked the plate clean . I sat there in awe ,, Back to work till the sun set . The immigrants that come from these dire places work , work and keep working , They are amazing and kind . I just wish that somehow all those central American countries could get it together and stop stealing from their own . Honduras could be a paradise , but greed is keeping it down
Thank you DW for always focusing on the right issues. Wishing the U.S. , CANADA and other richcountries could help these poor countries.
the US has given $261 million dollars to Honduras, Guatemale, and El Salvador since 2021
The documents of the of the time. DW is opening the eyes of the world.
When the situation is that bad there is no wonder why some people are turning to unthinkable actions
Living in Roatan (an island ouside Honduras but still a part of Honduras) this feels so far away. We live a pretend life comparing to this. Been to several places in this video and it is so different from "our" island. Makes me sad to know how it is in real on the mainland.
Roatan is where the blacks from?
@@davidscott3726 no, you can find them anywhere in honduras mostly in places like la ceiba, they're called garifunas
@@angelm2934 Ok,my Neighbors are from Honduras,Nice nice people,
The country is so beautiful yet so sad.. darkness loom above and surrounds them.
Maria...Where are you?!!!....Thanks Jaimie
Me parece que la mayoria de esta gente joven son muy irresponsables se llenan de hijos cuando son incapaces de sostenerse ellos mismos de ahí radica el problema ,luego a huir a buscar quien les solucione el problema, yo fui emigrante y no tuve hijos haste tener algo que ofrecerles sino me quedaba sola a sufrir no traer criaturas inocentes a,sufrir.
It's blows my mind that all this places have so much nature 🌳,,,so much space , so pretty.
Comparing to living in the City 🚦,,,
I am also has crossed this kind of way.
How terrible way it was!
I was born in San Pedro Sula, my parents were from the US. Sadly i had to leave. I loved the beaches and mountains, but i had to go
Man you're lucky you left. Don't you see the pain
@3o9afa yep, I did for many years. Enough is enough.
Your parents are from Honduras meaning that they were born there.
Great info for those of us living in pksces they're migrating to. I will say sadly though at some point immigration will hsve to stop so things can be changed. We can't all live in one area so we hsve to fix the world/territories in general. Also rhere needs to be a push everywhere to get people to stop having kids & wait.
