Indigenous People Protest with Lights in Brazil
Thousands of Indigenous People from all parts of Brazil formed a 8-meter high and 60-meter long light image in Brasília, the capital of the country. The unconventional banner reading "JUSTIÇA - JUSTICE" was created with around 3,000 LED lights, and aims to call for Indigenous Peoples constitutional rights to protect their lands and forests.
The protest is part of the Acampamento Terra Livre - ATL (in English: Free Land Camp), happening from April 24th to 26th, 2019, which is the main and largest annual assembly of indigenous leaders coming from the five regions of Brazil. Over 4.000 indigenous people, gathered in Brasília, seek to exchange cultural experiences and unify their resistance and fight for their rights, such as the demarcation of their territories, access to health, education and social participation for the many Indigenous Peoples living in Brazil. The ATL has been happening for 15 years in a peaceful way, aiming to give visibility to the indigenous fight for their constitutional rights.
In original language:
Povos Indígenas Protestam com Luzes em Brasília
Milhares de indígenas de todas as regiões do país formaram uma mensagem de 8 metros de altura e 60 metros de largura, em Brasília. A palavra JUSTIÇA, constituída por cerca de 3.000 luzes de LED, é uma exigência dos povos indígenas por seus direitos constitucionais de proteger suas terras e florestas.
O protesto é parte do Acampamento Terra Livre, que acontece de 24 a 26 de abril de 2019, em Brasília, e é o maior e principal encontro anual de lideranças indígenas vindas das cinco regiões brasileiras. O objetivo dos mais de 4 mil indígenas é trocar experiências culturais e unificar a resistência e a luta pelos seus direitos, como demarcação de suas terras, acesso à saúde, educação e participação social para todos os Povos Indígenas quem vivem no país. O ATL vem acontecendo há 15 anos de maneira pacífica, com o intuito de trazer visibilidade à luta dos indígenas por seus direitos constitucionais.
