Song for Berta

Claude · 03-06-2021, 02:27 PM

In honour of Berta Cáceres's 50th birthday today,

Jófríður Ákadóttir (JFDR), Sandrayati Fay and Damien Rice wrote a song inspired by Berta's life and work.

Berta was an Indigenous Lenca land defender, from Honduras, who was murdered 5 years ago.

The injustice of her death feels like it became an emblem of strength for community to gather with unwavering defence in support of what she believed in,

with a call for humankind to wake up and protect the environment.

All proceeds go to Copinh.
