Enough is enough.
Dear friends,It's time to stand up and say enough is enough. Since Jair Bolsonaro's election, violence and attacks against Brazilian Indians have increased drastically.
This Thursday, indigenous people across Brazil will be protesting, and they're calling for international support. Survival stands in solidarity with them.
Help us show Bolsonaro that the world is watching.
What can you do?
- SHARE messages from indigenous people far and wide. Help us ensure their voices are heard.
- SHARE Survival's response to Bolsonaro's "declaration of war" against Brazil's indigenous peoples.
- FOLLOW Survival on Twitter and Facebook to be alerted every time we broadcast the voices of Brazilian tribes. We post daily from @Survival and @SarahDeeSvl.
- JOIN US at 9am this Thursday 31 January at the Embassy of Brazil in London, UK. Bring yourselves and your friends as protest alongside indigenous people across Brazil.

BC Hereditary Chiefs Stand Together with Wet'suwet'en
HEAL THE PEOPLE - DEFEND THE LAND
Historic Gathering With Chiefs Across BC Standing With Wet'suwet'en
Chiefs from the B.C. coast, Interior and Northwest converged in Smithers this week show support for the Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs’ opposition to the Coastal GasLink natural gas pipeline. Over 200 packed the Dze L K’ant Friendship Centre in Smithers to hear from the Chiefs, and Unist’ot’en and Gitdumden members.
"You are in charge of your land, make no mistake about it. We are in charge of our land. And at times, we need to rely on each other for support," said Murray Smith from Lax Kw'alaams near Prince Rupert.
"Reconciliation cannot be done at the end of a gun," said Wayne Christian, a chief from the Secwepemc nation.
"Today's show of support from our neighbours and allies proves the Wet'suwet'en do not stand alone. "We the hereditary chiefs are the title holders and maintain authority and jurisdiction to make decisions on our unceded lands," said Wet'suwet'en hereditary chief Na'Moks.
You can watch a video of the press conference HERE.

This year’s march will be organized under the leadership of the Women’s March Victoria chapter founder, Dr. Kat Sark (author of the Women in Business and Women in Politics Guides). Those interested should plan to gather at the BC Legislature Building at 11 a.m. There will...
