Nasa Resistance: Defending Land, Life and Culture
There are 85 indigenous groups in Colombia, and nearly one-third
of them are in danger of extinction because of the U.S. funded
armed conflict being fought by Colombian state forces, the
paramilitaries and guerrilla groups. Targeted by fighters
on all sides, more than half of Colombia’s indigenous
peoples suffer selective assassinations and the militarization
of their territories. FSRN’s Nicole Karsin chronicles
the Nasa people’s resistance and struggle to defend
their land, lives and culture from a protracted and cruel
armed conflict.
