Advocacy/Campaigns Issue Background Extractive Industries in South America May 7, 2002 Indigenous peoples and others living in rural areas of South America are being adversely affected by the operations of mines and oil companies seeking to extract resources. While governments rely on such industries for income, the money earned does not usually compensate local areas for the damage to the environment and culture. These abuses are routinely inflicted on communities that do not enjoy strong political representation. Mining is fundamental to the economic growth of many regions of the world, including most notably parts of the western United States, southern and central Africa, and much of South America. Prosperous countries have sought mineral wealth in less developed parts of the world for centuries: The Spanish Conquistadors' efforts to colonize South and Central America was spurred largely by a search for gold and silver, needed by Spain to fund its expanding empire. (Historians have estimated that millions of indigenous people died in the Spanish-run mines in Bolivia. When the population was decimated, slaves from Africa were brought in to replace them.) In modern times, exploration and drilling for crude oil is similarly essential for foreign currency in many poor, but resource-rich countries, and to satisfy increasing demand in industrialized countries.

    Extractions: It is estimated that there are about 300 million indigenous peoples scattered around the world today. Indigenous peoples are the Indians of the America’s, the Aborigines of Australia, the Maori of New Zealand, the Mayans of Guatemala, and the Sami of northern Europe to name a few. The world has obtained invaluable knowledge and goods from indigenous peoples, such as food, medicine, and language. In recent history the well-being and lives of indigenous peoples have been threatened. Today there is a move to restore indigenous peoples way of life through the influences of the international community. There is an international effort to restore indigenous peoples’ rights, customs and ways of life. The United Nations has been at the forefront of this crusade. Indigenous peoples are defined by some as people or nations that have a “historical continuity with pre-invasion and pre-colonial societies that developed on their territories and consider themselves distinct from other sectors of the societies now prevailing on those territories, or parts of them. They form a present non-dominant sector of society and are determined to preserve, develop and transmit to future generations their ancestral territories, and their ethnic identity, as the basis of their continued existence as peoples, in accordance with their own cultural patterns, social institutions and legal systems.” This definition is accepted by the United Nations and many countries. However, some Asian countries are uncomfortable with a definition and maintain that they do not have any indigenous peoples on their land.

    Extractions: Published in El Colombiano, July 18, 1999 The indigenous community of Zorando, located in the Rio Verde basin, in the municipality of Saisa Alto Sinu, Cordoba, denounced that a group of paramilitaries (Autodefensas), threatening extermination, ordered the eviction of indigenous peoples living in those territories. The accusation pointed out that "the deadline for removal is July 18, after which the Autodefensas will not guarantee the safety of those remaining there." "We do not understand why we have to leave our territory given that we are not part of the armed conflict," said the statement with grave concern. According to indigenous spokespersons, this eviction threat adds to the serious violent incidents registered in the area during recent days: the murder of two drivers and the takeover of Saisa. This takeover resulted in eight peasants dead, fifteen houses destroyed, and two wounded Embera indians "who are not involved in the armed conflict." In this regard, the indigenous spokespersons indicated that one of the wounded, Rubén Mosquera Pernía, dissapeared when he was taken to the hospital in Monteria in an ambulance. Facing these threats, the community of Zorando del Alto Sinú, inhabited by 83 indigenous people, declared that they will not abandone their territory, "our Mother Earth," and issued a call to all human rights NGOs to help "guarantee the safety of our people and to bear witness to this difficult situation."

    Extractions: LUCIO GUARACHI was born in a village on Bolivia's windswept Altiplano, some 4,000 metres (13,000 feet) above sea level. Of Andean Indian descent, he speaks Aymara as well as Spanish. Since he was ten, he has lived mainly in El Alto, an ever-expanding satellite city of 700,000 people whose self-built houses of bare brick or mud and corrugated iron straggle out into the Altiplano above Bolivia's capital, La Paz. He works, when there is work, in a small workshop making water pumps. Last October, he helped to overthrow an elected president. El Alto was the scene of battles between the army and well-organised protestors that ended with at least 59 dead and the resignation of President Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, a pro-American mining magnate. The ostensible motive for the protests was a scheme by multinational companies to export liquefied natural gas from Bolivia to California via Chile. But was there another factor at work? Most of the protesters were of indigenous descent. The trigger for their action lay in an obscure incident in Pucarani, a small town near Lake Titicaca. Indian followers of Felipe Quispe, a militant peasant leader, had captured two cattle rustlers; invoking indigenous traditions of justice, they beat and killed them. When police arrested his lieutenant for the crime, Mr Quispe organised roadblocks. After protestors and police were killed, matters escalated.

    http://www.ammsa.com/classroom/CLASS3Intelligence.html
    
    Extractions: University of California, Davis Major corporations, especially including chemical and biomedical organizations, are rapidly attempting to establish ownership of ever conceivable herb, herbal extract, food plant, plant fiber, productive procedure or idea under the general title of "intellectual property rights". Many Native people in South America and other parts of the world are being tricked into teaching outsiders about specific native plants which then will be registered by a non-indigenous corporation. Although there are some outsiders who are attempting to help indigenous groups, most traditional knowledge will be appropriated without any rights being vested in any indigenous groups. A lot of First Nations people are becoming very concerned. Historically, the Europeans have appropriated innumerable species of maize (corn), potatoes, sweet potatoes, beans, tomatoes, cacao (chocolate), peanuts, persimmons, bananas (pacobas), yucca (cassava), tapioca, chayote, jicama, papayas, etc., along with countless medical remedies such as witch-hazel, quinine, golden seal, american ginseng, and none of these items have ever been paid for. No "royalties" have ever been given to the indigenous scientists who refined these plants and medicinals over many hundreds or even thousands of years. Similarly, no one has paid for the indigenous people's invention of rubber balls and accessories, kayaks, toboggans etc.
