Indigenours women in Latin America face triple discrimination

Description

Lima (Peru), Jun 30 (EFE), (Camera: Mikhail Huacán).- The Continental Network of Indigenous Women (ECMIA) denounces the situation of indigenous women in the Americas since they suffer triple discrimination: women, indigenous and poor. SOUNDBITES OFTARCILA RIVERA, COORDINATOR AT THE CONTINENTAL NETWORK OF INDIGENOUS WOMEN (ECMIA):"As indigenous women, we use the term 'acts of violence' in plural since as you said expulsion from their territories is a form of violence. We also suffer domestic violence, sexual violence, racism - which, for us, is a brutal act of violence that hurts self-esteem- and sadly we have registered for more than 350 rapes (girls and boys) during lockdown."
