Program Title: Canadian Mining Industry Abuses in Guatemala. And How Indigenous Communities are Fighting Back
Description: Canadian Mining companies have been implicated in numerous human rights abuses and violence against communities in Guatemala and throughout the Global South. There is very little awareness of these injustices among the Canadian public.
This week's Global Research features an extensive examination of these activities and of the efforts to resist them.
We'll hear first from an Indigenous Land defender named Anna Guadalupe Matzir Miculax and a KAIROS representative named Rachel Warden with whom she is allied and will function as her translator.
In the second half hour, the Latin America Program Coordinator for Mining Watch Canada, Jen Moore helps contextualize the Canadian mining sector's abusive practices.
Host(s): Michael Welch
Featured Speakers/Guests: Anna Guadalupe Matzir Miculax, Rachel Warden, Michael Welch, Jen Moore
