it's a pleasure to be featured in this incredible special issue of NACLA

the issue is also full of some of my favorite Latin American comrades working on environmental conflicts, colonialism, and green transition in our continent

The latest issue of the NACLA Report was co-edited by Breno Bringel and myself. NACLA is deeply committed to socio-environmental justice in the Americas, so we wanted this issue to provide insights into the state of ecological imperialism in the region, including its green capitalist facades.
Cover art by Thais Trindade. The title "NACLA REPORT ON THE AMERICAS" is listed on top. The illustration is like a board game, where communities stand in the way of capitalist and extractivist powers going through the board with tractors and other machinery, commodifying forests, removing people, even as they place wind turbines and other symbols of "sustainable development". The arrow points to the endgame:  Green capitalism in the americas.
