Tomás Gómez Membreño
We are anti-patriarchy, anti-neoliberalism, and anti-racism. And this neoliberal system is one that exploits and dominates us. We are not only in defence of our natural resources but all of these systems maintain people in submission, and this is how we began to re-vindicate our identities and our rights in defence of natural resources. Anyone who wants to participate can participate.
