When Democracy Now! was covering the COP28 U.N. climate summit in Dubai, we spoke to Sônia Guajajara, the head of the largest Indigenous delegation in the history of the climate talks. Guajajara is Brazil’s first Indigenous cabinet minister and the country’s first-ever minister of Indigenous peoples. In our full interview, she discussed her goals for the summit and in Brazil, and said the world is in “a state of emergency” and that Indigenous peoples are on the frontlines of the climate crisis. “Investment is needed, financing is needed, and protection, so that we can all protect the planet.”
