Estimada Presidenta de la Comisión, Sra. von der Leyen,
Queremos extenderle nuestras felicitaciones por su reciente visita a América Latina, en la que se ha reunido con los Presidentes de Brasil, Argentina, Chile y México.

It’s disorienting as much as it is a reminder of the darkness that is consuming our island; a darkness that is both literal and figurative.

Washington Kiriri (Kiriri) is an Anthropology student at the Federal University of Southern Bahia in Brazil. He aspires to end the objectification of Indigenous people as anthropological case studies and to create new opportunities for Indigenous people to tell their stories. He is also part of the United Movement of Peoples and Organizations of Bahia, which seeks to guarantee Indigenous territorial rights, women's rights, 2SLGBTQ+ rights, and climate justice. Kiriri offers a reflection on his experience as a bisexual person in Brazil.
For Indigenous Peoples, gender has always been transcendent and fluid, interconnected to our lands, languages, cultures, spiritualities, and worldviews. The separation occurred during colonization and acts of genocide that regulated sexuality with the aim of eliminating gender diversity in Indigenous communities.
