"Those lingering questions and the constant threat of violence appear not to be stopping Mr. Homer Gómez’s son from following in his footsteps.
'There are a lot of risks involved in doing what my father did, but no one else had the capacity for community organization that he had,' said the younger Mr. Gómez. 'I want to learn how to do the same thing, although it’ll be difficult. My dad knew everything, I just barely started learning about the forest and the butterflies a few years ago.'
He sighed. 'It’s a big responsibility. There’s only one El Rosario.'"
