Indigenous communities across the Ecuadorian Amazon are sheltering in place to avoid the spread of COVID-19, while also facing the largest oil spill in the last 15 years. They are now witnessing their homes, drinking water, and food sources being destroyed. Unfortunately, even in the middle of a pandemic, Indigenous activists must continue to defend their territories from extractive industries.

Amazon Watch is partnering with our friends at Amazon Frontlines on Tuesday, June 30th at 4 pm PDT (7 pm EDT) to bring you a special online screening of the award-winning documentary The Condor and the Eagle. One of the film's stories brings you into the heart of the Amazon rainforest as Indigenous leader Patricia Gualinga documents her people's struggle to protect their land and water.

The online screening will be followed by a live discussion featuring Indigenous leaders Patricia Gualinga, a leader with Mujeres Amazónicas and one of the film's protagonists, and Carlos Jipa, President of the Federation of Communes Union of Natives of the Ecuadorian Amazon (FECUNAE). They will discuss the impacts of climate change and provide updates about the oil spill that affected the Napo and Coca rivers of the Ecuadorian Amazon. Joining them will be Carlos Mazabanda from Amazon Watch, Lina Maria Espinoza from Amazon Frontlines, and Ecuadorian community organizer Veronica Grefa.
