Read the case study detail.

A third term ? Not so fast

La Marcha de los Cuatro Suyos.

Perú
Dictador

nvdatabase.swarthmore.edu/content/peru...

On July 27, 2000, La Marcha de los Quatro Suyos or the March of the Four Directions began. About 20,000 demonstrators, from the four corners of Peru and many of whom had to travel by bus for several days, peacefully marched down the streets of Peru's capital, Lima, to protest against Fujimori's illegal third term election. Peasants and city-dwellers alike shouted ";Abajo la dictadura!" ("Down with Dictatorship!") and paraded all day long. That evening, reportedly 100,000 demonstrators convened in the Paseo de la República, one of Lima's principal avenues. The leader of the opposition movement and the organizer of this campaign, Alejandro Toledo, had arrived in Lima two days prior to this demonstration. The organizer had anticipated that the gathering would be massive and without violence.

Decision makers are always getting it from all angles. Never a moment of peace, always finger pointing no matter what we do. What makes things better is knowing you did everything in your power to make good decisions.

We're seeing mother earth being destroyed in real time. Indigenous engineering and know how can't do it all but if we all emulate those ideas, we're better off.

I'm not opposed to later migrations coming from wherever they came from, joining w peoples who were already here which is what migration is. We move and connect and break apart. We are not a single river with creeks merging in. We are massive river systems branching and joining and branching again.

Cree Metis anthropologist Dr. Paulette Steeves writes that the evidence is often not found because it is not looked for, & she argues for Indigenous presence here on these lands going back a very long time.

We had our own neolithic revolutions. 2, possible 3 of them.
