NAGIS presentation by Sandra Xinico Batz: "Racismo y Colonialidad"
Tuesday, November 30, 2021 1pm to 2:45pm
About this Event
Sandra Xinico Batz is a Kakchiquel anthropologist, columnist, and educator. Her publications and activism address diverse issues involving Indigenous peoples of Guatemala, ranging from colonization, genocide, and migration to patriarchy, extractivism, and intellectual property rights.
An outspoken critic of the state-run tourism industry, Xinico Batz has argued alongside members of the National Weavers’ Movement that appropriating the artisanry of Indigenous women not only impoverishes them and disrespects their work and culture but represents a form of dispossession that has existed since colonial times.
This presentation will be offered in Spanish with simultaneous translation into English
