“Gunshots have been fired”

The Indigenous Guardians of Arariboia in the Brazilian Amazon are protecting their land and the uncontacted Awá. And what do they get in return? Death threats and gunshots fired at their houses. This is their urgent call for the government protection.

Tribal Voice is a project by Survival International, the global movement for tribal peoples. More than one hundred and fifty million people in over sixty countries live in tribal societies.

From the Amazon to the Kalahari, from the jungles of India to the Congo rainforest, Tribal Voice gives them a platform. They experience appalling racism and genocidal violence. Their lands and resources are stolen for profit. Their ways of life are being deliberately and systematically destroyed.

Here they speak out about what matters to them; watch, listen, and get involved: https://survivalinternational.org/tribalvoice
