BOOKS
Stories of roots, courage, and possibility
Two books for different generations, connected by the same belief: never forget where you come from, and use every opportunity to help others move forward.
THE GREAT DREAM | EL GRAN SUEÑO
A bilingual children’s book in English and Spanish for ages 4–8. Share a colorful story about family, migration, friendship, and dreaming without borders.
IMMIGRANT
Marcos Antil’s autobiography: a true story of migration, Maya Q’anjob’al identity, resilience, family, and returning knowledge and opportunity to Guatemala.
“A story that represents collective memory.”
Rigoberta Menchú Tum, Nobel Peace Laureate 1992
I am Marcos Antil
Guatemalan, Maya Q’anjob’al, immigrant, family man, author, and technology entrepreneur.
I was born and raised in Santa Eulalia, Huehuetenango, Guatemala. At fourteen, I migrated alone to the United States, fleeing war. I studied in California, entered the technology industry, and founded XumaK.
My journey is not only about personal achievement. It is about returning knowledge, opportunity, and hope to the communities that made me who I am.
