Thinking Like a Mountain (2019) / dir. Alexander Hick
If she wasn't here, everything would be different. There would be a bridge over the lake... — ...and restaurants at the shore… — It would be a swimming pool. — Even we would come to see it out of curiosity... — ...and think it's a perfect place. — Yes, and we would hope that they will buy our bags...
En Colombia, los pueblos indígenas con asentamientos en la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta exigieron al Gobierno Nacional que tome medida frente a la minería en el macizo, advirtiendo un grave daño ambiental y afectación a las fuentes hídricas. El cabildo gobernador kankuamo, Jaime Arias, señaló que “aquí nacen 36 ríos, están los glaciares que regulan la temperatura y el agua de la región Caribe; el llamado que hacemos a la sociedad y al Gobierno es que nos ayuden a la protección de este territorio sagrado que hoy está en riesgo”. No puedemos dejar que arruinan la sierra, nuestra tierra.
NO A LA MINERÍA EN LA SIERRA NEVADA.

Song of the Day
Oh man.... I’ve been soooo tired. I’ve really just been lazy. Ok, well here’s the song from yesterday. I wanted to go down to South America && provide a song from a Colombian indigenous group known as the Arhuaco. They are a very spiritual group, according to Wikipedia. On the ticindigena blog, they writer describes the Dance of the Chicote, which is a dance that portrays a cosmological creation story of sorts. Enjoy!
