Afro-Colombian activist Francia M�rquez, 2018 Goldman Prize Winner, on Stopping Illegal Gold Mining | Democracy Now!: Francia M�rquez, a leading Afro-Colombian activist who is the 2018 recipient of the Goldman Environmental Prize for Central and South America, visited Democracy Now! in May 2018. In this wide-ranging interview with Amy Goodman, M�rquez describes how she organized her community of La Toma, in Colombia’s Pacific southwest region, to stop illegal gold mining by multinational corporations on their ancestral land. In 2014, Marquez led a 10-day, 350-mile march of 80 women to Colombia’s capital, Bogota, that led to the removal of all illegal miners and equipment from La Toma.
