Yesterday, nearly 3,000 indigenous women leaders from across Brazil staged a mobilization in the nation’s capital as part of the country’s first Indigenous Women's March. Entitled "Territory: our body, our spirit,” this historic gathering was in response to escalating violations of indigenous rights under the Bolsonaro government, as native peoples and their lands fall increasingly under assault.

“Ever since Bolsonaro said that there will not be one more centimeter of land demarcated for indigenous peoples we have marched because, with this affirmation, he declared war not only on indigenous peoples but also on indigenous women,” Sônia Guajajara said. “This totally authoritarian, conservative government seeks to erase and exploit our territories, negating our right to exist.”

"We came to denounce the president’s hateful discourse, which has increased violence and destruction in our territories, which directly impacts us women. We are counting on international solidarity to advance this movement for our future.”
