The Indigenous Humanitarian Crisis with Fiona Watson

​​In this episode of Brazil Unfiltered, James Naylor Green speaks with Fiona Watson. Fiona is Research and Advocacy Director at Survival International, the global movement for tribal peoples' rights. She has been with Survival since 1990 and worked on many campaigns for Indigenous peoples’ rights, notably with the Yanomami, Guarani, and Awá in Brazil. She has visited many Indigenous communities in South America and is a specialist on uncontacted tribes in the Amazon. She carried out fieldwork with a Quechua Indigenous community in the Peruvian Andes for her Masters degree and lived in the Brazilian Amazon for two years in the 1980s. Brazil is going through turbulent times. There’s never been a more important moment to understand Brazil’s politics, society, and culture. To go beyond the headlines, and to ask questions that aren’t easy to answer. 'Brazil Unfiltered,' does just that. This podcast is hosted by James N. Green, Professor of Brazilian History and Culture at Brown University and the National Co-Coordinator of the U.S. Network for Democracy in Brazil. Brazil Unfiltered is part of the Democracy Observatory, supported by the Washington Brazil Office, and produced by Camarada Productions. ➡️ https://www.braziloffice.org/en/obser...
