"Nearly everyone from the Wajãpi tribe died"

RIP Kaspirina Wajãpi, who died of Covid at the beginning of this year.

We recorded this moving interview with him a while ago. We’re sad to be sharing his message under such circumstances, but we’ll remember him as a great and determined #Indigenous leader.

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://svlint.org/TribalVoice
