Cultural Survival mourns and
condemns the death in Nicaraguan State custody of Brooklyn Rivera (Miskitu),
a longtime Indigenous defender who spent more than 40 years defending Indigenous rights, territories, and autonomy in Nicaragua. #DefendTheDefendersapnews.com/article/nicaragua…
Rest in power, Brooklyn Rivera (Miskitu). Cultural Survival honors his legacy and stands in solidarity with his family, the Miskitu people, and all those demanding truth, justice, accountability, and respect for Indigenous rights in Nicaragua. #DefendTheDefenders
El Grupo de Trabajo estará en comunicación con el Gobierno de Nicaragua para exigir que se respeten los derechos de la familia de Brooklyn Rivera. El grave sufrimiento ocasionado por el gobierno de Nicaragua para la familia de Brooklyn debe parar.
El Grupo de trabajo requiere al Gobierno nicaragüense determinar la suerte y paradero de los familiares, su inmediata liberación, la entrega del cuerpo de Brooklyn para que sea sepultado en el lugar donde la familia decida y conforme a sus costumbres de pueblo Miskito
El @WGEID recibió noticias alarmantes sobre la posible desaparición forzada de 7 familiares del defensor Brooklyn Rivera. Aparentemente fueron detenidos por autoridades nicaragüenses cuando exigían la entrega del cuerpo para enterrarlo conforme a sus ritos y costumbres.
