Grupo Saker-Ti


Grupo Saker-Ti was Guatemalan writers group formed in 1947. The name derives from the Cakchiquel language word for "dawn." Because they were left-wing ideologues who supported the democratically elected presidents of Guatemala Juan José Arévalo and Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán, a December 1952 United States Central Intelligence Agency report stated that "one of the oldest and most consistently prominent of the (Communist) front groups is Grupo Saker-Ti, an organization formed by militant young intellectuals associated with the leftist-nationalist Revolution of 1944."

The movement disbanded and many of its members fled Guatemala following the 1954 Operation PBSUCCESS that overthrew the government.
