Ogoni communities held a mass peaceful protest against Shell's operations and the damage to their homeland. Ken Saro-Wiwa and the Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People connected environmental protection with collective rights. The mobilization challenged an extractive relationship in which local communities bore costs while control and revenues lay elsewhere.
