HTML:<p><b>REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK</b><br /> <b>"An unforgettable memoir about fighting for your home and your heart." —Reese Witherspoon (Reese's Book Club November '24 Pick)</b><br /> <b>From a fearless, internationally acclaimed activist comes an impassioned memoir about an indigenous childhood, a clash of cultures, and the fight to save the Amazon rainforest<br /> <i>We Will Be Jaguars</i> is an astonishing memoir by an equally astonishing woman. Nenquimo is a winner of <i>TIME</i> magazine's Earth Award, and <i>MS.</i> magazine named this book among the Most Anticipated Feminist Books of 2024.</b><br /> Born into the Waorani tribe of Ecuador's Amazon rainforest—one of the last to be contacted by missionaries in the 1950s—Nemonte Nenquimo had a singular upbringing.<br /> She was taught about plant medicines, foraging, oral storytelling, and shamanism by her elders. At age fourteen, she left the forest for the first time to study with an evangelical missionary group in the city. Eventually, her ancestors began appearing in her dreams, pleading with her to return and embrace her own culture. She listened.<br /> Two decades later, Nemonte has emerged as one of the most forceful voices in climate change activism. She has spearheaded the alliance of indigenous nations across the Upper Amazon and led her people to a landmark victory against Big Oil, protecting over a half million acres of primary rainforest. Her message is as sharp as a spear—honed by her experiences battling loggers, miners, oil companies and missionaries.<br /> In <i>We Will Be Jaguars</i>, she partners with her husband, Mitch Anderson, founder of Amazon Frontlines, digging into generations of oral history, uprooting centuries of conquest, hacking away at racist notions of indigenous peoples, and ultimately revealing a life story as rich, harsh, and vital as the Amazon rainforest herself.</p>.
