ABSTRACT
“A shout resounds throughout Brazil – the cry of indigenous peoples.” 1 Countless indigenous nations are under threat of extinction in the world today. Many are being decimated at an alarming rate due to unrestrained resource exploitation and expropriation of their ancestral land, leading them into a cultural void. Along with the Brazilian Amazon indigenous peoples, the surrounding environment is also dying. One of the main reasons for this conundrum is the relentless deforestation of the Amazon, driven by the country’s influential agribusiness, led by the anti-indigenous ruralists in the government.
