Afro-Indigenous People in Honduras Are Being Forcibly Displaced. Washington Is Complicit.
Many would-be migrants, like the Garifuna, would love nothing more than to stay in their homes. It’s Washington that’s making it difficult.
On this Indigenous Peoples’ Day, I want to tell you about my people, the Garifuna. We’re an Afro-Indigenous people, descended from Arawaks and Africans. Our ancestral territory spans the Caribbean border of Central America.
Latin American and Caribbean communities like ours are rarely noticed in U.S. media — except when we migrate.
Except when they're forced to due to various conditions caused by outside interferences. If you don't want them, quit fucking with them! Let them run their own god dam countries.
{Meanwhile our young people are abandoning their communities in droves as a result of the violence, persecution, and lack of healthy living conditions.}
And there's the common outlining reason across all of Latin and South America.
{Instead, since winning these cases, we’ve faced increasing threats, criminalization, displacement, and assassinations.}
{In July 2020, four Garifuna youth from Triunfo de la Cruz were abducted at gunpoint by men wearing uniforms with the logo of the Honduran Investigative Police (DPI) — an entity that has received U.S. training . The four men haven’t been seen since. One of them was the president of the town council and a vocal defender of Garífuna land rights.}
!That's on all of us now!
