our basic needs traded for others' luxuries

As a kid I never thought of a life where we could no longer drink from the river but here we are 2022 with mercury found in our home river. Extractivism isn't new to the Amazon, years ago roads came in with promises of a better life, but the road was meant for oil not for people. As the world sets off on its "green transition" Indigenous communities are being affected negatively, our basic needs are being traded for a "green" future.
