"In New Mexico, we are experiencing devastation to our ancestral homeland because of oil and gas, and fracking, and uranium mining," Bernal said. "We have been a neocolony for the military industrial complex of the United States." "While as Indigenous Peoples we are demanding reparations for our own people, we are also internationalists, and are demanding that the United States also pay its debt to the global south, and all of the destruction that the U.S. has done through the imperial fascist regime." Bernal said that the conversations from her homelands in the Pueblos are being brought to this international gathering, to demand reparations for the global south and for Indigenous Peoples in the United States impacted by resource extraction. "New Mexico, the state that we come from, was the testing ground for the first atomic bomb and that reality is devastating knowing that the natural resources that come from our ancestral lands have devastated communities across the globe -- so that's why we as Indigenous peoples of the United States are going to continue organizing through grassroots and popular movements."  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4_NV2U8X48Indigenous Block COP30 on Friday Novara Media reports that Indigenous protesters blocked the entrance to the climate summit on Friday, demanding an end to fossil fuel extraction, logging and mining in the Amazon rainforest. "Delegates stood in long queues to enter the summit compound – and were forced to use side entrances – as dozens of activists staged a sit-in, which went ahead peacefully following an earlier incident in which activists stormed the summit and scuffled with security." Indigenous campaigners have criticised president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva for allowing new oil drilling to go ahead at the mouth of the Amazon river, despite his pledge that Cop30 would be “inspired by indigenous peoples.” An umbrella group of indigenous authorities across Brazil released a joint statement before the summit demanding leaders "declare indigenous territories as exclusion zones from extractive activities.” Indigenous Peoples stormed the climate summit demanding action "We Can't Eat Money"  |
Dozens of Indigenous protesters forced their way into the 30th annual United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) on Tuesday evening after hundreds of people participated in a march to the venue.
“We can’t eat money,” said Gilmar, an Indigenous leader from the Tupinamba community near the lower reaches of the Tapajos River in Brazil, who uses only one name, referring to the emphasis on climate finance at many of the meetings during the ongoing summit.
“We want our lands free from agribusiness, oil exploration, illegal miners and illegal loggers.”
