The Indigenous people Krenak, from Minas Gerais, have been historically affected by the advance of mining, farmers and ranchers who constantly invade their Indigenous Lands to exploit natural resources. The Doce River is the only source of water Krenak had available – They now need water to be brought in. Besides being a holy river in Krenak culture - it was destroyed by the disruption of Samarco Mining dam on November 5, 2015.In original language:Desastre de Mariana: Uma mês depois do rompimento da barragemZezão (José Krenak) de povos indígenas Krenak, na margem do rio Doce, entre as cidades de Resplendor e Conselheiro Pena. Os povos indígenas Krenak, de Minas Gerais, têm sido historicamente afetado pelo avanço da mineração, pelos agricultores e pecuaristas que constantemente invadem suas terras indígenas de explorar os recursos naturais.

The firefighters and the civil defense stopped the search for survivors due to the risk of a new disruption in the Germano Dam. One month after the disaster, Greenpeace Brazil started a partnership with the group of researchers from GIAIA (a voluntary and independent group) to fill the gap of official information about the disaster caused by the dam.Related Collections:Mariana's Toxic Mud Disaster in Brazil (Photos & Videos)
