Hosted by the Traditional Authority of Vicam Pueblo, Nov. 20-21, 2012, the forum was in solidarity with the Zapatistas and Indigenous fighting the theft and pollution of their water. The resistance movement is to uphold Indigenous water rights and unite in the battle against corporations, governments and politicians seeking the theft of Indian water.
