WATCH: Hundreds of indigenous people in Brazil are pressing Congress not to pass legislation proposed by President Jair Bolsonaro that would allow mining and oil exploration on their reservations

Organizers are hoping to gather 7,000 people from 200 of Brazil's 305 tribes to press Congress not to pass legislation proposed by far-right President Jair Bolsonaro that would open their protected lands to commercial mining and agriculture.

Bolsonaro has said indigenous people have too much land, holding up the development of the country, and vowed not to recognize an inch more of reservation lands. Environmentalists say the reservations save the rainforest from destruction.
