Indigenous People

It is incredible that in Brazil still exist 77 indigenous tribes which have no contact with the rest of the Brazilian population. And it is even more incredible that one of these tribes only has one single member.
The indigenous tribes here in Brazil suffer a lot under the oppression through the government and the great lack of respect others have for there living space.
Various killings of indigenious people are well known, and they are not only from the long gone past.
The company Coca-Cola is dealing with some big critics because of the “Coca Cola Life” – a low-calory version of Coca, which has been very successful due to the sugar replacement. The sweetener they now use instead of real sugar is called “Stevia” and it comes from Brazil and Paraguay. By using Stevia, Coca-Cola stole not only the plant from the indigenous people but also the knowledge of how to use it. And the only “win” for the indios is, that Coca-Cola doesn’t pay anything and not even respects their homes.
