Today marks one year since the brutal murders of our friend, Indigenous expert Bruno Pereira, and of British journalist Dom Phillips.
A year later, the call for justice continues and the Javari Valley remains under threat.

We need protests, politics and solidarity, to challenge the bigots in the courts, the authoritarians of the right, & the servile & craven Democratic Party that controls every wing of government but whines daily about all that it cannot do while the fires burn out of control.
Madison, Wisconsin, June 24: Empty shelves where baby formula would be if we lived in a country that truly valued the life of babies. Abortion is now illegal in WI due to an 1849 law. Today's supreme court decision was not about honoring life, but about power & control.

Indigenous land defenders are targets of violence. In Dec, Waorani elder #NangeYeti was murdered patrolling his lands. 3 months passed w/ no investigation. @LassoGuillermo & @FiscaliaEcuador must bring justice to Nange Yeti & land defenders everywhere! #NangeYeti #MMIP
