This is his first interview after surviving being shot in the chest by a far-right agitator in September. Johns and other <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousActivists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IndigenousActivists</span></a> were holding a vigil opposing plans to reinstall a statue honoring the 16th century Spanish conquistador Juan de <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Onate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Onate</span></a> in Española, New Mexico, when a 23-year-old shooter wearing a red MAGA hat fired on the crowd. Johns says he died in the airlift on the way to the hospital and is still dealing with medical issues from the shooting, but wanted to come to the climate summit to share Indigenous wisdom with the world. 'We as Indigenous people understand that as the old world dies, that a new one is created and that we must focus on that creation process.'"</p><p><a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2023/12/8/cop28_violence_against_climate_defenders" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">democracynow.org/2023/12/8/cop</span><span class="invisible">28_violence_against_climate_defenders</span></a></p>
