OYX FOR PEACE

To be an indigenous is to face the contemptuous glances of thousands of people. To be an indigenous is to be criticized for wearing clothes, wearing shoes, having access to health care and education. To be an indigenous is to be criticized for using a cell phone or having a car. Being an indigenous is to hear that we earn money from the government, that we don't pay taxes.More without knowing we work and contribute to our municipalities. To be an indigenous is not to have autonomy over our own natural resources & territory. Social justice among citizens of national states and justice among peoples is the only way to achieve PEACE. It is necessary to build a new social reality with tolerance, individual freedom, self-determination,cooperation,mutual benefit. Transforming asymmetry into symmetry in the relationship of independence between members of the family.
