    An Inconceivable Indigeneity: The Historical, Cultural, and Interactional Dimensions of Puerto Rican Taíno Activism by Sherina Feliciano-Santos A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology) in the University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Barbra A. Meek, Chair Professor Bruce Mannheim Professor Judith T. Irvine Professor Ruth Behar Associate Professor Lawrence M. La Fountain-Stokes © Sherina Feliciano-Santos 2011 DEDICATION Para Mami y Daddy Por el apoyo incondicional y por siempre creer en mi, aún cuando a mi misma se me hacía díficil. Por ser modelos de humanidad e integridad. Por ser mis padres, los quiero. También a Abuelito, Porque fuiste ejemplo y siempre te llevaré conmigo. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Five years ago, in a meeting to talk about my final paper proposal on Jibaridad in Puerto Rico, Tom Trautmann asked if there were any indigenous movements in the Island. After a responding with a resolute ―NO,‖ I thought about it and remembered that the prior summer I had read an article in a newspaper about a group of people claiming to be Taíno protesting the management of the Caguana ceremonial site in Utuado, PR. It was this question and my own response to it, which led to the questions that would ultimately inform this dissertation project. For asking that initial question, I want to thank Tom Trautmann. Barb Meek has been an exceptional teacher, mentor, advisor, and friend. During my many years at Michigan, Barb guided me in thinking about language, indigeneity, field methods, and analysis. I feel deeply fortunate to have had her exceptional input and her unwavering support throughout my graduate student career.

  • Unidos Alcanzaremos Un Vieques Libre: Discourse As a Reflection Of
    UNIDOS ALCANZAREMOS UN VIEQUES LIBRE: DISCOURSE AS A REFLECTION OF SOCIAL AND GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION by REBECCAH ANNE SANDERS (Under the Direction of Elois Ann Berlin) ABSTRACT The sixty-year history of United States Naval activity on Vieques Island, Puerto Rico has been plagued with protests by island residents who have varyingly applied environmental and social justice discourse in their movement to evict the Navy. The most current inception of demonstrations spans a wide geographic range, centering on the island itself and radiating to cities throughout the continental United States. As the island prepares for a referendum determining the fate of the Navy’s presence, the social and political influence of these campaigns has risen dramatically. The movement has gained political and popular support with its dedication to civil disobedience and its rhetoric of health, the environment, human rights, and, more controversially, political determination. This thesis considers how the discourse of the movement reflects the location of its supporters.
