Afro-Colombians Defend Collective Land Rights

🖨️ Print Article

The Colombian government “has no intention” of making sure that Black and indigenous people’s right to collective land ownership will be protected under the peace agreement with FARC rebels, said Charo Mina-Rojas, of Black Community Process. The government has failed to provide security to Afro-Colombian and indigenous people, even as criminals and paramilitary groups have moved into Black areas, replacing demobilized guerillas.
