In this sweeping edition of the Indigenous Rights Report, we bring you stories from across the globe where Indigenous nations are reclaiming power—through law, resistance, and resurgence.

From the rainforests of Malaysia to the highlands of Guatemala, Indigenous Peoples are standing firm against evictions, extractive industries, and state violence.

From the Amazon to the Black Hills, Indigenous communities are making history—and holding the line. In this episode, we cover landmark legal victories in Colombia.
