In lyrical, impassioned prose, Eliane Brum recounts her movefrom Sao Paulo to Altamira, a city along the Xingu River that has been devastated by the construction of one of the largestdams in the world. In community with the human and morethan-human world of the Amazon, Brum seeks to reforest herself while building relationships with forest peoples who carry both the scars and the resistance of the forest in their bodies. Weaving together the lived stories of the region and its history of violent corruption and destruction, Banzeiro Okoto a call for radical change, for the creation of a new kind of human being capable of facing the potential extinction of ourspecies. In it, Brum reveals the direct links between structural inequities rooted in gender, race, class, and even species, and the suffering that capitalism and climate breakdown wreak onthose who are least responsible for them.The title Banzeiro Okoto features words from two cultural and linguistic traditions: banzeiro is what the Amazon people call the place where the river turns into a fearsome vortex, Okoto is the Yoruba word for a shell that spirals outward into infinity. Like the Xingu River, turning as it flows, this book is a fierce document of transformation arguing for the centrality of the Amazon to all our lives.
