 | | There were people from very different walks of life, and even though it was difficult, they were able to talk, to dialogue, and to establish agreements on the way in which the indigenous peoples of our country could decide how to become part of Mexico, of the modern world. |
 | | There are those who say that the indigenous people are the ones who have destroyed the forests and jungles of Mexico, and yes, they have had to plant in order not to starve, in lands very difficult to grow crops in because their good lands have been taken by people who are not indigenous. |
 | | If the right of indigenous peoples to their land and to govern themselves is recognized, they can't be thrown off their land, the mountains cannot be felled, nor pollute the rivers with the offal from the factories, unless the indigenous councils say so. |
