The BBC is running a story today about a Brazilian tribe (or actually about 100 of them) that are threatened because of destruction of the rain forests.
Part of me is curiously satisfied to know that there are still tribes we have not made contact with in the world. Not that I want to contact them. Quite the opposite, really. There is something comforting in the idea that we are not all one collective, that there are whole groups of people that exist without the internet, without foreign aid, without the imposed ideas that they should strive to ‘better their condition’.
I may add more on these thoughts later, but I am interested to hear what others have to say too.
