İYo luché!: Uncovering and Interrupting Silencing in an Indigenous and Afro-descendant Community by Eileen Cecelia DeLuca A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Applied Anthropology with a concentration in cultural anthropology Department of Anthropology College of Arts and Sciences University of South Florida Major Professor: Antoinette Jackson, Ph.D. Kevin Yelvington, D.Phil. Roberta Baer, Ph.D. Date of Approval: June 15, 2020 Keywords: oral history, heritage, critical theory, feminist epistemology, critical discourse, applied anthropology Copyright © 2020, Eileen Cecelia DeLuca DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to Suhar, Galil, Kalwa, Nata Tiara, Avance, Bolondrina, Tigrilla, and to all the guerrilleras in the world who refuse to be silenced. May the power of your voice always be your greatest weapon, and may you wield it widely and wisely. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank the community of Waspán and especially the aiklakabra mairin who shared their stories with me. My understanding about women’s participation in armed conflict will be forever changed by the time I spent with the members of the community. Thank you for the generous spirit and for being fearless in your rejection of the dominant national narratives about Miskitu women combatants. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Antoinette Jackson, who served as the committee chair for this project. There are some professors that do more than inspire learning; they completely transform your way of thinking. Through her rigorous course reading list, informative lectures, and challenging assignments, Dr. Jackson compels her students to think critically about the production of heritage narratives, and the voices that may be silenced within them. After each course I completed with her, I felt like another veil had been lifted from the lens through which I view world. I will be forever grateful to have studied under this amazing scholar. I would also like to thank Dr. Kevin Yelvington who is a fellow disruptor and a Marxist scholar par excellence. I much enjoyed debating and analyzing the readings in his course, and I am a much better scholar for having done so. Dr. Yelvignton’s knowledge of Latin American and Caribbean politics and history led to valuable input for this project. His critical feedback on course assignments and on this thesis compelled me to engage in a substantial amount of revision that ultimately improved my work vastly. Thanks also to Dr. Roberta Baer, who is “the woman” when it comes to applied anthropology. In taking her course, I was able to better define and truly understand the purpose of applied anthropology and how it contributes to creating a just society. Dr. Baer’s model of using oral history to better the lives of a refugee community inspired the applied project detailed in this thesis. She also provided valuable feedback about organizing each chapter to provide better clarity to the work. This project would have never come to be if it were not for an invitation to participate in an oral history project from my colleague, Dr. Bruno Baltodano. That invitation led me seemingly through the looking glass, into the world of the beautiful and complicated country of Nicaragua. During the period of my research, Nicaragua, which for many years had been a relatively peaceful and safe country, became engulfed in a civil conflict that led to a series of documented human rights violations at the hands of the government. While we were trying to make sense of this whirlwind period of chaos and conflict, my colleague suffered an unrelated and unimaginable personal tragedy. I continue to be filled with a profound sadness about all of these events, and recognize that my feelings about these tragedies cannot be disentangled from the research or the writing of this thesis. I want to acknowledge the resilience of all Nicaraguans, and especially my colleague, Bruno. I hope he and his country find peace and redemption in the face of all of life’s challenge. Finally, I would like to thank my husband, Dan DeLuca, and our three beautiful children, Molly, Jamie, and Lisa for all their love and support during these years I have spent conducting this research. Thank you for taking an interest in this project that has become so important to me. My daughters proved to be three fierce luchadoras in their own right as they traveled with me through Central America during a period of civil conflict. I was delighted by their desire to learn as much as they could about the region, and humbled by their generous spirit towards the community of La Concepción. We have all grown in our understanding of the world through this project. Thanks as always to Dan for being patient and supportive of all my academic misadventures. My husband and children have all taught me more than they will ever know about love and resilience.

  • Nancy Escalante
    Mujeres of the Nicaraguan Revolution: Politicization, Radicalization, and Gender Consciousness Nancy Escalante As a self-described “library rat,” Gioconda Belli, a Nicaraguan writer and poet who was deeply involved in the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN), read the world classics, but was oddly unacquainted with Latin American literature. Her fateful encounter with the early members of the FSLN, a radical group named after Augusto César Sandino, martyr of the Nicaraguan uprising against Somoza’s oppressive family regime, introduced her to Nicaraguan literature; she then became more familiar with the culture of her own people. Belli describes this as a “pretty schizophrenic” experience, having felt “like [she had] been hit over the head with a rock.” Her newfound political leanings and experiences were entirely outside of her marriage; Belli’s husband threatened her, and even barred her from going to the university, La Asunción, because he believed it would turn her into a rebel. In the early stages of the revolution and the formation of the Sandinista National Liberation Front, it was taboo for a woman to become involved in politics––and to read political literature. Belli would lock herself inside her bathroom, having hidden the FSLN’s documents in her ceiling behind the easily removable square plasterboards. She had to read “them without [her] husband knowing” because he “wasn’t about to let [her] get 76 Perspectives involved.”1 Belli, like other women involved in the early stages of the movement, had to strategically hide her journey into politicization. As women’s demands in areas such as reproductive health, sexual liberation, and education became a topic of political discussion, Nicaraguan society––through the FSLN––permitted women to become publically radicalized and more open about their gender consciousness.

  • Place and Mobilities in the Maritime World: the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company in the Caribbean, C
    1 PLACE AND MOBILITIES IN THE MARITIME WORLD: THE ROYAL MAIL STEAM PACKET COMPANY IN THE CARIBBEAN, C. 1838 TO 1914 Anyaa Anim-Addo Royal Holloway, University of London PhD Human Geography 2 Declaration of Authorship I, Anyaa Anim-Addo, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________________________________________ Date: ______________________________________________________ 3 Abstract The empirical subject of this thesis is the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company (RMSPC), a British-based steamship company that served the Caribbean from 1842, and extended operations into South America in 1851. I construct a postcolonial historical geography of the RMSPC as it operated in the ‘expanded’ post-emancipation Caribbean. By analysing the steamship service as a network rather than as a ‘tool’ of empire, I foreground the mobilities constructed by this Company, and explore how these mobilities impacted upon maritime places in the Caribbean. In so doing, I develop a ‘tidalectic’ approach to the RMSPC’s past, by expanding upon Kamau Brathwaite’s concept. I argue that tidalectics, in intersection with the ‘new mobilities paradigm’, contributes to an advance in understandings of maritime history, since together they facilitate mobile examinations of the relationship between sea and shore. To develop analysis of the RMSPC’s maritime mobilities, four substantive case studies are presented. The first case study focuses on the RMSPC’s ports-of-call, as mapped by the scheme of routes. The second such chapter considers the steamship itself as place, particularly with reference to social and cultural dynamics.

An anthropological study of popular participation within the Frente Sandinista de Liberación Nacional by Johannes Wilm Submitted to be examined as part of a PhD degree for the Anthropology Department, 1 Goldsmiths College, University of London 2 Nicaraguan Sandinismo, back from the Dead?

Johannes Wilm 3 Abstract Thirty years after redefining the political landscape of Nicaragua, Sandinismo is both a unifying discourse and one driven by different interpretations by adherents. This thesis examines the complex legacy of Sandinismo by focusing on the still widely acclaimed notion of Sandinismo as an idiom of popular participation. A central point is the current unity of the movement, as it is perceived by Sandinistas, depends on a limited number of common reference points over the last 100 years of Nicaraguan history, which are interpreted very differently Sandinistas and other groups, but which always emphasise the part Nicaraguans play in international relations and the overall importance of popular mass participation in Nicaraguan politics, rather than agreement on current, day-to-day politics.

    Chávez, Daniel. Nicaragua and the Politics of Utopia. Development and Culture in the Modern State. Nashville, TN: Vanderbilt University Press, 2015. Print. 363 pp. ________________________________________________ JOSÉ MARÍA MANTERO XAVIER UNIVERSITY The recent work Nicaragua and the Politics of Utopia. Development and Culture in the Modern State by Daniel Chávez offers a timely study of recent Nicaraguan history and the distinct cultural and political manifestations of national utopian projects. As ambitious, grounded, and well-documented as the study is, the work would have benefited from a more Central and Latin American contextualization of utopia, the central theme and theory of the analysis. Essays and poems by Simón Bolívar, José Martí, Pedro Henríquez Ureña, Enrique Rodó, José Carlos Mariátegui, and works such as La raza cósmica (1925) by José Vasconcelos and the poem “Salutación del optimista” from Cantos de vida y esperanza (1905) by Rubén Darío, for example, call for a defense of Latin American identity and for the construction of an America where no one nation was subjugated by another and the influence of the United States in national and international affairs was offset by the strength of a continental consciousness. In all, Nicaragua and the Politics of Utopia. Development and Culture in the Modern State is a valuable contribution to the field of Nicaraguan and Latin American studies that combines the study of lesser-known documents (the inauguration speeches of the Anastasio Somoza García and Violeta Chamorro, for example)
