Survival International, a group dedicated to protecting tribal communities around the worlds, has released a photo of an un-contacted tribe in Brazil. Uncontacted tribes are ones that have had next to no contact with modern civilization, whether by choice or simply for being in such a remote location. There are about 100 un-contacted tribes around the world, most of which are located in South America.
In our world of mobile phones, the internet, automobiles, and air travel, an un-contacted tribe seems out of the question. We are used to getting to work miles away from our house, visiting family on the other side of the country, and having a kitchen to cook our meals from a grocery store with thousands of options.
However, being in a zone that is without contact is not out of the question. I know on my way to school there are quite a few pockets without cell phone reception. Moreover, I am not driving on high traffic roads. I make sure to take extra precaution to avoid an accident, especially in the winter. No reception and no drivers can spell a long wait.
Precaution is the best way to avoid an accident, however sometimes they are unavoidable and that’s why each of us has car insurance. Every day, more so in the winter, hundreds of car accidents happen in New England. Being fully protected can severely relieve some stress after the ordeal. Since we are not an un-contacted tribe, we are used to having our vehicle to get to work or school.
