To Die in this Way: Nicaraguan Indians and the Myth of Mestizaje, 1880-1965 by Jeffrey L. Gould

emotional informative inspiring reflective

5.0

The myth of mestizaje was the method to erase indigenous communities in Nicaragua, specially since the 1900s early years. With extensive research, we can see how national narratives are used to blend and erase complex stories and traumas. This process is happening again today with communities in the caribean regions.
