PALMA SOLA Liborio Mateo, The Origin

Palma Sola, by Gabriel Castillo Campusano, is a graphic novel that, based on various sources, tells the story of a massacre of peasants perpetrated by the Dominican authorities in 1962, in Las Matas de Farf?n, an event that, like the April Revolution 1965, marked with blood the second half of the 20th century in the Dominican Republic.

The Ventura Rodr?guez brothers, marked by history, were born linked to the most notable peasant movement in the Antilles: olivorism. And like Olivorio Mateo, a poor mulatto peasant from San Juan de la Maguana, the Ventura Rodr?guez brothers and thousands of Dominicans, were dragged to violent death at the hands of those who still hide behind the masks of power and intolerance to impose their ideas and their interests.
