“White people, your world makes me very sad”

In this interview, Ehuana Yaira talks about the indivisible relationship between the Forest and the female body.

In the Xipaya Indigenous Territory, the Iriri River is suffering the effects of climate change, as its waters change color and its fish die. We Indigenous people are living in a time of uncertainty

Thought Seeding —

Die a little each day
