Alborada presents a public talk:
Massacre in the Amazon: The Garcia Government vs Peru's Indigenous
On June 5, World Environment Day, Amazon Indians in Peru were massacred by the government of Alan Garcia in the latest chapter of a long war to take over common lands -- a war unleashed by the signing of the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between Peru and the United States.
Come and hear about the latest developments in Peru and what we in Britain can do to help Peru's indigenous people and the wider social and environmental struggles taking place in the country.
"The Amazon struggle must continue, demanding respect for the rain forest.
The Amazonian natives know that what is at stake is their own survival. We hope that the world population becomes aware that they are fighting in defence of all humankind, the Amazon jungle is the lung of the planet."
-- Hugo Blanco (Peruvian social activist and director of 'Lucha Indigena'
('Indigenous Struggle'))
Speakers:
- Oscar Blanco (Son of Peruvian political figure Hugo Blanco)
- Derek Wall (Former Green Party Principal Speaker)
