U'wa Leaders

SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA, USA: Berito Kuwaru'wa (left) a leader of the U'wa Indians of Colombia, prepares to enter the Occidental Petroleum Corporation's (OXY) annual shareholders meeting as hundreds of supporters protest outside. U'wa leaders, Kuwaru'wa and Perez traveled from their home deep in the Colombian cloud forest to urge Occidental shareholders to divest and demand that the corporation respect their rights and not drill on their traditional territory. The U'wa have threatened mass suicide if Occidental does drill. nv © 2000 Dang Ngo
