To see the tanks coming in, we even had the fighter jets fly over us. The mood was very tense. This is all for a golf course. This is all for some group of rich people, the elite and their playground. Like many indigenous peoples, we call the earth our mother. Place where our ancestors rest is extremely important. They wanted to extend their 9-hole golf course into an 18-hole golf course, but at the same time, they also wanted to dig up our burial ground to extend their parking lot. We set up a blockade on a secondary dirt road. At that time, the majority of the people who were at the barricades were women. We're matrilineal.
有坦克开进来,甚至还有战斗机盘旋示威。当时人们的情绪非常紧张。而这一切都是因为一个高尔夫球场,都是为了一群富人精英和他们的游乐场。和许多土著民族一样,我们称土地为我们的母亲。对我们来说,祖先安息的地方是极为重要的。那些人想把他们的9洞高尔夫球场扩展成18洞高尔夫球场,不仅如此,他们同时还想挖开我们的祖坟来扩大他们的停车场。我们在一个二级土路上设置了路障。那时,守在路障旁的大多数都是妇女。我们是母系社会。
Our clans come from our mothers and we're the ones who are supposed to protect the land. And it's the duty of the men to protect the people. The women said we would go to the front when the police arrived. The men said they would watch us if anything happen. So on the morning of July 11th, we were interrupted at 5:15 in the morning by a SWAT team. And so we went down towards the front of the barricade, towards the high way, with our hands in the air to make sure that they saw we had no weapons. But they still met us with a lot of aggression and a lot of force. What I said to them was this is our land and we have every right to be here. I mean the golf course sparked a discussion about the real issues that indigenous people have been fighting for centuries which is land dispossession, protection of our languages and culture, our way of life. So it woke up people. I would say it woke up people.
我们的部族来自母系家族,我们(女人)负责保护土地。男人的责任是保护部族人员的安全。可是这里的女人们说如果警察来了,我们就去前方。男人们说他们会密切关注我们,以防有任何情况发生。7月11日清晨5点15分,我们被一支特警队打断。无奈之下,我们走到路障前,到高速公路上,同时举起双手确保他们看到我们没有携带武器。但是他们仍然十分具有侵略性,对我们动用了大量武力。我当时对他们说,这是我们的土地,我们完全有权在此对它进行保护。我的意思是,高尔夫球场事件引发了一场关于土著人民奋斗了几个世纪的真正问题的讨论——土地剥夺、对部族自身语言、文化以及生活方式的保护。它唤醒了部族人民。我认为,它唤醒了部族人民。
