Indigenous protesters march on Brazil Congress
Thousands of protesters took to the streets of Brazil’s capital on Monday, as part of an annual event known as the Free Land Encampment. Music, dancing and speeches accompanied the demonstrators, gathering to oppose government policies that threaten their traditional way of life. The march was attended by a party of indigenous leaders who were welcomed at the Congress by lawmaker Célia Xakriabá, herself a long-time activist for indigenous rights.
‘We come to demand improvements in our rights, territory, health, education. We have been fighting and demanding the authorities to do what is guaranteed in the constitution,’ said one indigenous leader. ‘We have been going through many difficulties, mainly the demarcation of the land, which today we do not have. That is why today we live in this war, our people are fighting without land and being discriminated,’ said another.
