De Beers wrong about Bushman evictions [Botswana]

Survival will continue its campaign until the Bushmen are allowed to return to their ancestral lands in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve (CKGR) in Botswana...Contrary to De Beers's claim, Survival's assertions that diamonds are at the root of their evictions are supported by numerous incidents described in our paper, 'The Bushmen aren't forever.'...We are calling for a boycott of De Beers in order to put pressure on the company and the government...to respect Bushman rights.
