Talk:2011 Bolivian Indigenous rights protests

}}

Move proposal
There's a lot of great work here, however the title is very confusing. 2011 has seen many Bolivian protests on many themes (some are here). I would suggest 2011 Bolivian indigenous protests at a minimum.--Carwil (talk) 16:30, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Bold as the edit was, the reason given was that there hadbeen many in bolivia in 2011, btu we dont have any of them and with sources. At any rate, the current title doesnt fulfil the topic as it doesnt say "indigenous" what? Even if its obvious wed need to clarify in the title...although that is dubious too as all indigenous PEOPLE were NOT protesting. Lowland vs. highland, Aymara, etc.(Lihaas (talk) 15:48, 26 December 2011 (UTC)).
 * For some other protests, see the expanded Presidency of Evo Morales. While the TIPNIS protest was not a universal mobilization of indigenous people, it was carried out by a joint effort of the Confederation of Indigenous Peoples of Bolivia and CONAMAQ, respectively lowland and highland (Aymara/Quechua/Uru) indigenous organization, under the name Eighth Grand National Indigenous March, and with fifteen other demands related to indigenous rights.
 * Incidentally, there's a lot of dubious reporting here; will try to improve it over time.--Carwil (talk) 02:10, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
 * but there were a lot of Morales supporting Indians who were NOT in support of it.
 * Also, what aspects are dubios...lets dicuss first. Most is sourced.(Lihaas (talk) 20:46, 29 December 2011 (UTC)).

Some dubious or absent things

 * Deaths: These are unconfirmed, totally denied by the government, and quickly dropped from the protesters' own narrative. A comprehensive report by the Human Rights Ombudsman's office does not mention them. For a press investigation into the deaths see this.
 * "Highland indigenous people" is too broad to cover the supporters, and we should have material on other backers from San Ignacio de Moxos and some segments of Cochabamba.
 * Alternate routes for the highway should be discussed.
 * There are not "16 tribes" in TIPNIS, but 3 peoples living in 64 communities
 * There is a southern zone of TIPNIS organization CONISUR, which previously opposed the highway, but now is carrying out a new march (started mid-December) in support of the road (details are here, although I'm not offering my blog as a RS).--Carwil (talk) 19:48, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
