A multimedia team examined how Latin America's Indigenous people responded to COVID-19.
For the Indigenous peoples of Colombia, the Covid crisis, like the environmental one, is a consequence of development without conscience, based on an extractivist system that dispossesses cultures and attacks the biodiversity of the territories, of which our own bodies are part. The following video, a trailer for Colombia the Body as Territory, is part of the series Legacy of the Andes, part two of The Esperanza Project’s transmedia Cosmology & Pandemic series.
