“One hand washes the other, and together they wash the face” is a saying that the elders use. The Minga.
When people don’t have money to pay wages, they ask others to help, and later the favor will be returned. In this way, many crops and businesses have been saved from bankruptcy. The Minga is a defense of life, territory, democracy, justice, and peace; The Minga is resistance.
