  • To Anil Roberts thank you for your concerns on our first nations people of Guyana and that's where i come in and yes its true that we do have to play along with the system but we still have a right to share in there policies and guidelines if it threatens our rights and freedoms acts as Amerindian first nations people i think my grandfather [Stephen Campbell] who fought for all Amerindian freedoms and rights to culture and lands would agree with you to a point so keep the fight my brother ..

  • Fascinating story by a Guyanan Indian about his relationship with the natural world. "The forest is very much a part of us and we depend on it." For outsiders it seems that reservations are the only way to protect the Amazon, but for Anil Roberts and his family, this seems to mean that they are excluded from their traditional way of life.
