Facing the SWAT Line at the 2015 Summit of the Americas

There are always at least two perspectives on every situation! The 7th Summit of the Americas and the Indigenous Summit of the Americas, April 10-11, 2015, in Panama City, Panama, just before the SWAT Team parted and our Representatives of the Indigenous Summit of the Americas proceeded on our way to the Summit of the 36 leaders of Nation States Americas to deliver our Message.
