| "Pacific Women Speak Out" is a collection of stories of resistance against incredible odds, stories of survival. Indigenous women speak to us from Aotearoa (New Zealand), Australia, Belau (Palau), Bougainville, EastTimor, Ka Pae'.aina, (Hawai'i), Marshall Islands, Te Ao, Maohi (French Polynesia) and West Papua (Irian Jaya). They tell of the impacts of invasion and war, nuclear weapons system, nuclear testing, militarisation, human tights abuses, sexism, tourism, non-indigenous settlement, mining, industrialisation, imposed economic dependency and all the manifestations. Despite all this violence, Indigenous women have maintained a strength and a compassion that come from their people's ancient connection with the land and water that have sustained them since the beginning of time. These women are sharing their stories in a bid to break the silent, that has concealed the violations. This book is a contribution to the Hague Appeal for Peace, a global campaign to de-legitimise war. | |
