Guarani story for the Guardian

Meanwhile, in Mato Grosso do Sul, the ongoing land conflict between the Guarani and farmers continues. What is being referred to as the Caarapó Massacre by local campaigning groups, on June 14th, one death of Clodiode Aquileu Rodrigues de Souza, and several serious injuries occurred to Guarani villagers, including a 12 year old boy who took a bullet, hitting vital organs (thankfully he is making a good recovery). Allegedly this happened at the hands of land owners involved in a long, ongoing dispute about land in the region. On assignment for the Guardian with Bruce Douglas, we investigated the situation, aiming to get to the bottom of what is happening, why, and what the chances are of a resolution between the two sides.

Here’s a couple of the out-takes, the full article will be published next week.
