Extinction of Brazil’s indigenous peoples is a blot on the country’s history – Survival International

Indigenous People in Brazil

Survival International’s Director Stephen Corry states, “The extinction of Brazil’s indigenous peoples is a blot on the country’s history, and it’s shameful that the same cruelties and abuses rife during the colonial era are being endorsed by the Brazilian justice system today. The Pyelito Guarani’s heartrending plea couldn’t be clearer: life without their land is so full of misery and suffering,that it is not worth living. Brazil must act before it allows another of its peoples to be destroyed”.
