1 - Echoes of Silence (03:59)

Sobre o recente massacre do povo Guarani Kaiowá na fronteira do Brasil com o Paraguai. Para atender interesses financeiros de corporações multinacionais, os indígenas perderam suas terras e foram colocados em situação de quase-escravidão. Fruto do, ainda em curso, processo de colonização (um genocídio que se tornou silencioso ao longo de cinco séculos) o episódio foi tornado invisível por muitos anos. Para muitos indígenas, a única saída foi o suicídio.

About the recent massacre of the Guarani Kaiowá in Brazil's border with Paraguay. To meet the financial interests of multinational corporations, the Indians lost their land and were placed in a situation of quasi-slavery. Fruit of the still ongoing process of colonization (a genocide that became silent over five centuries) the episode was made invisible for many years. For many Indians, the only way out was suicide.

Centuries of massacre are still not over
Hunger and death still remains
A silent extermination is at full force
When collide to corporations plans

Invisible Death!

Expelled by the continuing colonization
Land and water ripped apart
One-sided struggle to revert this action
And save what left from what they deprive

Unseen Terror!

Echoes of silence
Genocide
Echoes of silence
Enslaved by their force

Murder and dismemberment as strategies
Indians facing suicide as solution
Threatened by fear

This is the effects of the devastation
Of a progress model that fuels
International capital and its limbs
Draining life from our earth
