Gov. lawsuit against the Federal Government, Xiuhtezcatl’s actions show his music is more than words.

IT’S 7 AM, and a thin layer of mist still hovers over the harbor in Talamone as fisherman Paolo Fanciulli stretches out his nets. Pulling them out of a plastic tub, he examines them section by section, setting the ripped ones aside to be repaired.
