Davis-Castro This report provides statistical information on Indigenous peoples in Latin America. Data and Research Librarian findings vary, sometimes greatly, on all topics covered in this report, including populations and languages, socioeconomic data, land and natural resources, human rights and international legal conventions. For example the figure below shows four estimates for the Indigenous population of Latin America ranging from 41.8 million to 53.4 million. The statistics vary depending on the source methodology, changes in national censuses, the number of countries covered, and the years examined.

It aims to throw new light upon that little-studied event by making use of previously unconsulted documentary evidence drawn from Spanish archives. Previous discussions of the uprising, provided by anthropologists and historians who have not examined the full range of relevant source material, have embedded it firmly within a putative narrative of Tule history that is characterized by the group’s staunch, single-minded opposition to outside domination. Eastern Panamá’s Indians, it is assumed, did nothing for three hundred years but oppose the Spanish, carrying out the series of rebellions, uprisings, and oppositions that are thought to comprise an impressive and durable rejection of imperial domination.

  • Arturo Arias University of California, Merced
    Indigenous Knowledges and Sites of Indigenous Memory ______________________________________________________ ARTURO ARIAS UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, MERCED Introduction This special issue of Transmodernity emphasizes Indigenous knowledges that may be represented in literary texts, or else be manifestations present in “multi-dimensional sites of indigenous knowledges,” to use Michelle Wibbelsman’s phrase in her article on this same issue, as webs of signification in the symbolic production of heterodox cultural forms in the United States, Canada, and in Latin America. Literatures and other representational forms explain beliefs, relationships of kinship, relations with nature, and ways of living within contexts of flux, paradox, or tension, articulating their perspectives, while also reconciling opposing forces disaggregating their communities. Their claims are rooted in a sophisticated worldview anchored in complex ontological and epistemological articulations, oftentimes grounded in turn on a comprehensive elucidation of cosmologies. In short, Indigenous peoples’ worldviews deviate from those that have been hegemonic in the West. Noted Brazilian anthropologist Eduardo Viveiros de Castro has stated that “the classic distinction between nature and culture cannot be used to describe domains internal to non-Western cosmologies” (45). In the last of the same series of lectures published in Cosmological Perspectivism in Amazonia and Elsewhere (2012), Viveiros de Castro defined what he labels Amerindian knowledge, primarily Amazonian, as “multinaturalism”

  • Searching for and Affirming Our Christian and Indigenous Identity Jocabed Solano
    The Meeting of Two Worlds: Searching for and Affirming Our Christian and Indigenous Identity Jocabed Solano ho are we, the Guna people? The question is complex and Wcannot be answered with a precise definition. We are the sum of many experiences, stories, relationships, cultures, languages, geographies, encounters with other people groups, and encounters with ourselves. The Guna are one of many people groups in Abya Yala1 whose way of life is built upon our spirituality, worldview, and story of origin; who have been transformed step by step in 1. Abya Yala is the term utilized by the Guna people and which has been adopted by many indigenous peoples to refer to the American continents. It means “fully mature land” or “the land of life’s blood.” Jocabed Reina Solano Miselis, from the Guna Yala region in Panama, is a psychology and theology student active in the Comunidad de Estudiantes Cristianos (IFES in Panama) and the FTL. She works among indigenous young people with the intersections of identity, faith, and culture. 9 Vol. 10, No. 2 BOLETIN_TEOLOGICO_JLAT_10.2.indd 9 10/11/15 2:45 p.m. Jocabed Solano coming to know other peoples and ourselves. The bridge between internal and external dialogue allows us to create new ways of see- ing life and recognize that the answer to who we are will never be static but rather dynamic. Among the Canoes: Passing through Strange Lands, the Guna Experience If the sea could speak, it would tell our story; if canoes could record memories, they would reveal the secret of the people who have lived surrounded by the sea; they would tell a story that has never been heard of a people who found their freedom through struggling and always meeting themselves and others rowing on the high seas.

Amerindians from Alaska to Chile are increasingly raising their voices and reclaiming the right to represent themselves, in both a political and a discursive sense. This boom in indigenous literature and social movements is arguably one of the most significant occurrences at the turn of the twenty-first century, yet it remains largely understudied on a comparative level.
