Climate Change
Thousands of indigenous Brazilians march in downtown Brasilia. For their 19th annual gathering under the slogan “Terra Livre” (free land), they call on their government to take action on climate change. They are specifically asking for the creation of new reserves on their ancestral lands. They hope that Lula’s presidency will advance their cause, unlike former president Jair Bolsonaro, who had vowed to not yield “one more centimeter” to the Indigenous people.
