Between 8 Nov 2021 and July 2022 AL Jazeera published a serial of
articles (except one i.e. an Al Jazeera team)
all by the Cree-Iroquois Canadian-French journalist Brandi
Morin about femicides of Canadian Indigenous women and girls and
of Indigenous children who were abducted from their parents houses and
brought to residential schoolsof which each word is so
heartbreaking that it takes a lot of courage to read the whole serial. Still I challenge you to do so! I divided it according to the

<<'Amazonia, you beauty!' How the murders of Dom Phillips and Bruno
Pereira renewed the fight for Brazil's forests
Sunday 5 June started peacefully for Dom Phillips. The British
journalist was in the rainforest on a reporting trip for his book, How
to Save the Amazon. Just after dawn he got in a small launch with his
friend and guide, Bruno Pereira, and they travelled up the Itaquaí River,
only the sound of the birds and the motor breaking the comforting
silence. But then they were ambushed and both men were shot dead. The
killers, angry at Pereira for trying to stop their illegal fishing
racket, dragged their bodies into the forest and buried them.
The murders hit headlines around the world and shone a light on a region
where violence has soared since rightwing president Jair Bolsonaro took
power on 1 January 2019. After a slow response, Brazilian police, with
the considerable assistance of the Indigenous local people, took action
and three people are in jail awaiting trial for the killings. Another
man identified as the possible intellectual author of the crime was
released from custody in October and is under house arrest. The murder
of a universally liked journalist and a highly respected Indigenous
activist was a shock, but it has brought people together in unimaginable
ways. Hundreds of Phillips' friends and family exchanged hugs and
stories at services in Rio de Janeiro and London. DJs who knew him from
his time editing Mixmag held tribute nights. And universities are
hosting conferences on the issues Phillips and Pereira's deaths brought
to the world's attention. Murals went up around the world; T-shirts bearing their likenesses were posted all over social media; and the
words of Phillips' last Instagram post, <Amazonia, you beauty>, became a
catchphrase for those appreciative of the region's allure. A
crowdfunding campaign raised money for the families they left behind.
Films are in the works, and five writers have been approached to produce
the chapters that will finish Phillips' book. Publication is now set for
2024. The pair's influence has been felt on a grand scale, too. When
they died, Bolsonaro slandered them, suggesting they only had themselves
to blame for travelling in a dangerous region. The murders - combined
with a growing awareness of the climate crisis - led to a renewed focus
on the Amazon, and perhaps even contributed to Bolsonaro's defeat in
this October’s general election. Leftist challenger Luiz Inacio Lula da
Silva beat the incumbent in a tightly fought runoff after promising to
put the environment and climate crisis at the centre of his agenda.>>
