Chapter two traces Rigoberta Menchú’s search for an adequate witness from the interview she gave that became an international best seller to her recent vindication in Guatemalan court. The chapter goes on to identify and analyze two histories – the history of scandal and the history of testimony – as Menchú’s life story and life work move from book to documentary film to court. Finally the chapter theorizes that by following both histories, we can better understand how testimony travels within a network, how it halts or continues, and how multiple audiences receive it.
