This is a fight for the future of our planet and future generations.
For Indigenous people like me, our land is our home. It provides us shelter, security, and a deep connection to our ancestors. Indigenous Peoples have been forced to fight to protect our lands from invasion and destruction for centuries, and right now in Brazil, we are leading one of the largest and most critical battles to protect Indigenous lands in modern times.
Leaders in the U.S. and European Union and global climate activists must start treating the protection of Indigenous rights in Brazil as a priority for the global climate agenda and do everything they can to pressure Brazilian leaders to respect Indigenous Peoples' right to their land before it's too late. Otherwise, their grand commitments at Climate Week and COP28 could be for naught.
