Indigenous people across the Amazon are battling the coronavirus pandemic. They are losing their elders and with them, their living "libraries" and the memories of their history and culture. They are also losing their babies, leaders, and young warriors, but not only to the virus.

Indigenous communities in the Amazon have long resisted industrial and wildcat mining operations on and around their territories. Today their struggle continues, amid rising efforts to pillage native lands.

Many Indigenous communities like the Yanomami are actively resisting the theft of their lands. And as the COVID-19 crisis continues to intensify, they have launched an international campaign to immediately expel 20,000 wildcat miners from their territory.
