Massacre Indígena: Ruralistas Milicianos Atacam Indígenas Guarani Kaiowá, Kurupa Yty e Pikyxyin

Indígenas Guarani Kaiowá, Kurupa Yty e Pikyxyin foram atacados por ruralistas milicianos, em Mato Grosso do Sul. Foram mais ou menos 10 indígenas feridos a bala. Ao invés de proteger os indígenas dos ataques a Força Nacional se retirou.

I was trying to find out how a museum in Parma ended up with (apparently) 500 Kayapò pieces in their collection and ran into this article instead... gave me some hope for Brazilian museums and museums in general, at least.

This part was heartbreaking however:

Over the past few years, multiple Guarani-Kaiowá prayer houses — large, thatched structures used for religious events, festivities and community meetings — have been set on fire in Mato Grosso do Sul. In 2018, when Benites told Guarani-Kaiowá communities about the National Museum fire, they expressed sympathy rather than anger. They assumed the fire had been deliberately set by people who wanted to destroy the Indigenous artifacts housed within. “For the Guarani-Kaiowá, somebody got there, didn’t like what they saw and set the place on fire,” Benites says. “Because this is what it’s like here.”

'Indigenous people are murdered, and the killers go unpunished,' say organizations in solidarity with Brazil's Guarani Kaiowá people

The document was issued after the murder of a young Indigenous man in Mato Grosso do Sul state

Following the murder of a young Indigenous man on Wednesday morning (18) in the municipality of Antônio João in Mato Grosso do Sul state, organizations published a note in solidarity with the Guarani Kaiowá, expressing their rejection of violence against Indigenous people. Neri Guarani Kaiowa, 22, was shot in the head in a reclaimed area during an action by the Mato Grosso do Sul Military Police.  

The attacks began on Thursday (12) when the Indigenous people reclaimed the Barra farm, which overlaps with the Nhanderu Marangatu Indigenous Land (TI, in Portuguese). The Military Police, who were protecting the property, attacked them. They shot three people, and one was hospitalized. 

In Douradina, around 180 kilometers from Antônio João, the Guarani Kaiowá also face violence as they reclaim their ancestral territory of Panambi Lagoa-Rica.  

“We, the signatories of this note, demand that the authorities of the Brazilian state, government, and judiciary prioritize the protection of Indigenous communities to avoid further bloodshed on this land,” the note stresses. The document questions the actions of the justice system, which “cannot remain silent in an unequal battle where only Indigenous people are murdered, while the perpetrators and masterminds go unpunished.”

Smoke clouds and deforastation in Brasil - Mundane Astrology

Disclaimer: This post was mostly written in the beginning of September 2024. It was a very scary time and I just couldn't finish it until now that I'm better.

I don't know if you got the news that South America got covered with smoke clouds since at least the beginning of August, as huge areas in the Pantanal and the Amazon are burning. I promised to make posts based on the suggestions some of you made, but this is all that's been on my mind lately, because I'm smelling fire every day even as I live in a coastal city that's nowhere near them. I have a bit of a cough since June when I had a cold and then the cough persisted. Some days it was gone, but since the smoke clouds it's been consistent. I've never seen anything like it, an entire country and neighboring countries covered in smoke. To be clear, the fires are not natural, they are criminal acts, they are started for land grabbing and also probably as retaliation for the environmental protection policies of our current left-leaning government. This is also greatly done on indigenous lands. It all started after months of brutal attacks on the Guarani Kaiowá in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, all the while threats like the Time Frame thesis are still being pushed. It's making me feel like how we all felt in those days in the beginning of the covid pandemic, when we thought we were just going to stay home for 15 days, but a sense of doom was slowly creeping, because that number just kept getting bigger until we didn't know anymore. It's been making me feel sad, angry and fearful.

Smoke in São Paulo and Goiás. The Sun looked like that for days in my town as well.

I won't talk about Brazil's chart in depth¹, but it's important to talk a little bit about the ruler of that chart, which is Saturn in Taurus in the 4th house and the Moon with Aldebaran, the star of the bull's eye. This country is marked by its agrarian issues and the inequality in the distribution of land ownership in Brazil is one of the most pronounced in the world. The largest portions of land remains in the hands of a very tiny portion of the population, who are the richest and major producers of agribusiness, while they destroy forests and invade indigenous territory. That Saturn in Taurus in the 4th shows how the project for this country at the declaration of independence was still a perpetuation of colonization, and also how we were supposed to be a peaceful people, just meant to work, to be enslaved and tame like our cattle. Brazil still has a reputation of being very festive, happy and peaceful, even as we are built on so much violence².

From outside people mostly see Rio de Janeiro and beach culture as the postcard of the country, but that disguises the greater countryside culture of deep Brazil, which is incredible but not as marketable for tourism, and it's actually hard not to see it tainted with the violence of agribusiness. As it's obvious from our very strong barbecue culture, Brazil is a leader in the export of meat and soy, and the latter is actually because it's greatly used for cattle feed. When you hear about deforestation in the brazilian part of the Amazon, or about the destruction of any natural area of this country, it's always criminal fires started by powerful landowners trying to expand their areas of ​​agribusiness, especially for soybean plantation and for livestock, perpetuating the genocide of indigenous people, who are the most interested in protecting nature, but still don't have their lands demarcated and their rights protected without the threat of extermination.

Because of all of that, whenever we see the 4th house greatly activated for the year it's scary. The 4th house is about the forests, land and indigenous peoples. Looking at the Solar Ingress into Aries for Brasília, the country is ruled mainly by the Sun and has Mercury as the co-ruler this year.

The Sun was scorching the earth in the 4th house. In 2020 we also had the Sun in the 4th house and that was a historic year in terms of huge fires and deforestation too, when a third of the Pantanal biome was burned, so it checks out that the Sun in the 4th unfortunately signifies these things for this country in these times. Besides, Mars is the 4th house ruler, and it's in the 2nd house affecting resources, and we'll definitely see a rise in food prices because of what's happening pretty soon, which are already high. I consider its placement in Aquarius important, as Ísis notices often the recurrence of air signs in charts for fires, because they help it spread and thrive, especially the fixed air sign. The Moon in another fire sign in the 8th house doesn't help at all.

However, the IC is in Pisces with Venus and Saturn, while Mars will eventually reach them. Three weeks after the Solar Ingress, Mars met Saturn at 14° Pisces. One of the most important conjunctions to watch for in Mundane Astrology is the Mars-Saturn one, which is famous for signifying calamity and disease. Soon after the conjunction, the Full Moon in Scorpio came with those two in the 4th house. That's when we had the historic floods in Rio Grande do Sul, one of the most horrible environmental disasters we've seen. I've written about it here. The mix of fire and water signified a year with one of the worst floods and at the same time one of the worst droughts ever.

But now we're in the winter, thus we need to open up the chart for the Cancer Solar Ingress. It has the same rising sign, but this time Saturn is much more angular, and also stationary and about to go retrograde. Saturn on the IC is the co-ruler for the winter trimester.

Saturn is closer to the IC, making it a lot more powerful. He's stationary and about to go retrograde. Pretty soon he'll reach 15° Pisces where the fixed star Achernar is at and where it had its conjunction with Mars earlier in the year. Achernar is the alpha star of the constellation of the river Eridanus, which tells the myth of Phaethon, who drove the sun god Helios' chariot too close to the Earth and burned it. He gets striked by Zeus with his lighting bolt and his body falls into the river Eridanus.

Mars is still ruling the 4th house representing land and forests. He's in Taurus with the fixed star Hamal, the head of the Ram, which has his nature. So even though it's in Taurus, Mars is still very much himself. If we imagine the planets moving through the chart, we soon understand that Jupiter is going to square Saturn at some point, and Mars will do the same.

After the New Moon in Leo is when the fires got really wild and we got the smoke cloud covering almost the entire continent. On August 14 there was one big trigger for this: the Mars-Jupiter conjunction at 16° Gemini squaring Saturn. Nothing more symbolic of a continent-sized cloud of smoke above our heads than Mars-Jupiter in an air sign on top of the MC. As I've said, these are not wild fires, they're being coordinated, some were on caught on camera, that's why we see the 12th house activated, as it indicates hidden enemies and criminal activity.

Things got worse with the Full Moon, which was at 27° Aquarius, the exact degree of that Mars of the Aries Ingress chart. And this is where we're still at. I'm still smelling fire most of the time, especially at night for some reason, because I guess at night the air changes or something, I don't think anyone is trying to explain this enough. The sky looks like it's completely clouded, but the Sun is orange and its light is direct. I'm still coughing.

Aftermath

This is a very scary thing to just throw at you, so for anyone who cares about environmental issues I'll leave some more links about research that were made, measures that are being taken until now, things you could look up, follow or read about, etc.

some notes:

I generally try to identify places + groups

I try to make conscious decisions about tags that respect cultural identities, consider historical context and reject imperialism. I realize this is impossible and messy and doomed to be inconsistent. choices I've made include one Korea, one Ireland, and multiple tags for separatist states, i.e. Scotland, Catalan Countries.

I am currently unsure when or if it makes sense to tag the "bigger" nation in a post about an autonomous region, ex. China and Tibet, Faroe Islands and Denmark. I want to respect widespread independence movements, but also not become bloated with regional tags. Tibet deserves to be free of China but I have to laugh at Texas separatism.

Israel does not get a tag. instead see Jewish diaspora, Free Palestine, genocide, USA, or anti imperalism.

I am not always sure when to use the indigenous peoples tag. if I am unsure I will probably leave it out.

except the history and prehistory tag, I currently am not tagging things that no longer exist, ex. Soviet Union, Roman Empire. I may instead tag with the most closely related modern state, ex. Russia, Greece

Tags like EU, UK, Africa, Asia, Latin American, Polynesian, etc. are used only in posts that refer to many places/groups collectively, ex. a post featuring Lunar New Year in Asia

I try to tag the country/group that an artist/writer/creator belongs to, ex. a post featuring Baldwin tagged with USA, literature, black diaspora

tags are ever-evolving!

country/place tags:

Africa, Albania, Angolia, Argentina, Armenia, Asia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Bhutan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Brazil, Bulgaria, Cameroon, Canada, Catalan Countries, Central African Republic, Chad, Chile, China, Colombia, Congo, Cuba, Czechia, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Emirates, Estonia, Ethiopia, EU, Faroe Islands, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Greenland, Guatemala, Haiti, Hawai'i, Hungary, Iberia, Iceland, India, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Korea, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Malaysia, Maldives, Mexico, Moldova, Mongolia, Montenegro, Mozambique, Namibia, New Zealand, Niger, Nigeria, North Macedonia, Norway, Pakistan, free Palestine, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Romania, Russia, Scotland, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Somalia, South Africa, South Sudan, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Thailand, free Tibet, Turkey, Uganda, Ukraine, USA, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Wales, West Papau, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe

diaspora + ethnic group + cultural group tags:

Ainu, Apache, Bahá'í, Basque, Black diaspora, Chechen, Choctaw, Chulym, Dakota, Dharumbal, Dolgan, Galician, Gavião, Guarani-Kaiowá, Hui, Igbo, immigrants, Ingorot, Inuit, Ixil, Jewish diaspora, Karakalpak, Kashmir, Kazakh, Ket, Khakas, Lakota, Latin American, Lezgin, Mah Meri, Maka, Makonda, Mari, Mohegan, Ojibwe, Pataxo, Polynesian, Pueblo peoples, Purepecha, Q'eqchi', Rapa Nui, Rohingya, Romani, Rukai, Ryukyuan, Sakapultek, Samburu, Sámi, Selkup, Sioux, Tamil, Tatar, Tigray, Tlingit, Tokalau, Uyghur, Yazidi

culture + other tags:

agriculture, airports, animals and wildlife, architecture, art, body modification, children, clothing and textiles, current events, dance, ecology and environmentalism, festivals and holidays, film and tv, food, geopolitics, history, infrastructure, language, literature, maps, music, myth and legend, my posts, nature, prehistory, postcards and stamps, public transportation, religions and belief systems, solidarity, sports and games, traditions and customs, true spirit of the blog, urban landscape, water and boats, women

ugly tags:

acab, anti capitalism, anti fascism, anti imperialism, anti misogyny, anti xenophobia, genocide

Os direitos de povos indígenas às suas terras tradicionais, ponto central do debate hoje no STF sobre o marco temporal, há tempos têm sido usados pela extrema direita ruralista para se fortalecer. Não à toa, Bolsonaro já era tratado como "mito" por fazendeiros em áreas em disputa, como no Mato Grosso do Sul, muito antes de ser presidente.

A construção discursiva falsa de que indígenas são preguiçosos e que, apesar de serem menos numerosos, querem se apossar das terras daqueles que querem trabalhar, vem sendo usada sistematicamente por atores da extrema direita para agregar simpatizantes. Terceirizam a eles as culpas pelas desgraças do mundo.

E, uma vez agregados, são convidados a abraçar outros temas do receituário radical - da antivacina o golpe de Estado.

Bolsonaro já chamou indígenas de "fedorentos" (abril de 2004), disse que deviam "comer capim para manter as suas origens" (maio de 2008), afirmou que acabaria com a demarcação da Raposa Serra do Sol, dando "fuzil com porte de arma para todos os fazendeiros" (janeiro de 2016), comparou indígenas a animais de "zoológicos" (novembro de 2018), entre outras declarações.

Por conta disso, não interessa a esses grupos radicais que operam no campo, formando milícias rurais e financiando acampamentos golpistas, uma solução para a questão. Pelo contrário: para eles, quanto pior, melhor, pois ganham politicamente (elegendo candidatos) e economicamente (grilando e vendendo terras) com o caos atual.

A Constituição Federal de 1988 foi clara quanto ao direitos aos povos indígenas aos seus territórios tradicionais. A pressão de grupos ruralistas diante do processo de demarcação é que gerou a ideia do marco temporal durante o julgamento do caso da Terra Indígena Raposa Serra do Sol, em 2009, para limitar os direitos de reivindicação.

Com exceção dos radicais e dos criminosos, os produtores rurais envolvidos afirmam que a solução passa por algum tipo de indenização não só pelas benfeitorias, mas pelas terra, pois muitos compraram de terceiros - esses sim responsáveis pelo esbulho.

O ministro Alexandre de Moraes sugeriu, em seu voto, que os envolvidos sejam indenizados previamente pelas terras que forem devolvidas aos indígenas.

Daí, surgem problemas: considerar títulos de propriedade emitidos ilegalmente sobre terras indígenas como atos jurídicos perfeitos pode ser usado como argumento para expulsar indígenas que ocupam áreas? E a indenização prévia antes mesmo da devolução da terra aos indígenas não atrasa o processo de demarcação para o Dia de São Nunca?

Um dos maiores problemas para as demarcações hoje é que os atuais ocupantes não indígenas, munidos de títulos de propriedade, levam a discussão à Justiça que gasta décadas para tomar decisões. Enquanto isso, esses ocupantes continuam explorando economicamente a área, usando - inclusive - a venda da produção para bancar os advogados, postergando sua permanência no local.

O tema é complexo e, infelizmente, o debate público sobre o assunto ficou embargado no Brasil nos últimos anos, com um Congresso deliberadamente omisso e uma Justiça lenta quando interessa a quem tem poder. Mas há uma tragédia em curso, atingindo os Guarani e os Kaiowá, no Mato Grosso do Sul, e os Xokleng, em Santa Catarina, por exemplo.

O problema do marco temporal foi criado há 14 anos por um julgamento do próprio STF. Agora, o tribunal está buscando resolver a confusão. Não pode, portanto parir outro problema com uma questão aberta demais sobre a indenização para ser resolvido só em 2037.

Se o resultado não produzir uma forma de garantir os direitos dos povos indígenas no curto prazo, vamos apenas criar um caminho para que criminosos façam dinheiro fácil, na melhor das hipóteses, ou manter a demarcação paralisada, como extrema direita quer, na pior delas.

Com indígenas sendo massacrados, em discursos e por balas.

Latifúndio prepara massacre contra indígenas Guarani-Kaiowá em MS - A Nova Democracia

"Assim, o governo vai, mês após mês, ano após ano, financiando o “agro” e inviabilizando qualquer perspectiva de entrega das terras indígenas e também de retomada da falida “reforma agrária”.

CNDH recebe subsecretária-geral das Nações Unidas para debater violações de direitos e genocídio

O Conselho Nacional dos Direitos Humanos - CNDH recebeu 4 de maio, em Brasília, a subsecretária-geral das Nações Unidas Alice Wairimu Nderitu, que é conselheira especial do secretário-geral das Nações Unidas para a Prevenção de Genocídio.

Em missão ao Brasil, Wairimu Nderitu reúne-se com representantes do poder público, da sociedade civil, de comunidades indígenas e da comunidade internacional. A viagem inclui ainda visita aos povos Yanomami, em Roraima; Guarani Kaiowá, no Mato Grosso do Sul; e à comunidade de Jacarezinho, no Rio de Janeiro, e deve terminar no dia 12 de maio. As três localidades a serem visitadas pela conselheira especial também já foram objeto de preocupação do CNDH, que realizou missões a cada uma delas. Hoje, o presidente do colegiado nacional, André Carneiro Leão, entregou Wairimu Nderitu uma cópia dos três relatórios elaborados após a análise in loco do CNDH.

Carneiro Leão destacou que o CNDH se dedica a prevenir e apurar violações de direitos humanos contra grupo historicamente perseguidos no Brasil, conforme o conselho constata em suas missões. Além dos subsídios, ele ofereceu a disponibilidade do conselho em ofertar uma capacitação sobre cada um dos temas abordados pelos relatórios e para atuar em parceria para combater discursos de ódio; destacou a necessidade de apurar a violação de povos ciganos; e defendeu a necessidade de demarcar terras no Brasil para povos indígenas e comunidades quilombolas, conforme estabelecido na Constituição de 1988. “A falta de demarcação repercute diretamente em diversos crimes, como do Guarani Kaiowá, o que aprofunda conflitos fundiários por todo o país”, afirma.

O conselheiro Leonardo Pinho também destacou as violações sistemáticas sofridas pela população quilombola e por pessoas que vivem nas periferias, especialmente as negras. Já a conselheira Romi Bencke pontuou a dificuldade de caracterização do genocídio no Brasil por não estar normatizado – embora seja fundante da história brasileira.

Wairimu Nderitu explicou que seu mandato enfoca especificamente povos indígenas, afrodescendentes e outros grupos e comunidades vulneráveis do país. Ela agradeceu o material entregue pelo CNDH e explicou que irão analisar as informações para avaliar o cenário brasileiro.

'The extermination of native peoples is the death of our future,' warn entities, which demand urgency measures by the Brazilian state

São Paulo Bar Association, CIMI, Arns Commission and other groups demand actions to curb violence against native peoples

In the face of recent cases of violence against Indigenous peoples, human rights organizations have come together to demand urgent actions on the part of the state. “The escalation of violence against Indigenous peoples is extremely worrying,” warns the statement issued by the organizations. 

For more than a month, the Guarani-Kaiowá Indigenous people have been violently targeted by landowners in the Panambi-Lagoa Rica Indigenous Land, in the town of Douradina, Mato Grosso do Sul. In addition to physical attacks, the victims are the target of disinformation aimed at legitimizing the onslaught by people from the agribusiness sector, as revealed in a news story by Brazilian news outlet Agência Pública. In just one week in July, the states of Bahia, Ceará, Paraná, and Rio Grande do Sul also recorded attacks against Indigenous people.

For the document's signatories, the legal insecurity to which Indigenous peoples are subjected is responsible for the escalation of attacks. In September 2023, the Supreme Court (STF, in Portuguese) recognized the territorial rights of Indigenous peoples as a permanent clause of the Constitution, rendering the Time Frame Law argument (Marco temporal, in Portuguese) ineffective. In response, the National Congress approved law 14.701, which determines that Indigenous peoples only have the right to the lands they were occupying from October 5, 1988 onwards. In August 2024, the issue returned to the Supreme Court, now for a conciliation between the parties – Indigenous peoples and large land owners – proposed by Justice Gilmar Mendes.
