Claiming My Rich Heritage...Claiming My True Identity......

It is essential to know our roots and where we come from. It is an important part of who we are as people.

It strengthens our being and enriches our life. Our identity completes us like the sacred hoop...or the medicine wheel...it connects us to the webb of life...

My life is sacred like my ancestors of the days of ole. I have their spirit of their life running through

my very vains. They live in me....and give me life.

I was born with many gifts passed on to me by my… Continue

Updates

Entering the sprawling finely manicured campus acres is like entering Zen meditation. Still, I can’t help but feel out of place, a minority student, poor, and parent of eight children, attending classes in one of (if not the) richest (and whitest) communities in the state...

When is abusive behavior acceptable?

These questions have been running around my head for a couple of weeks now... I had to put them out there. Just thoughts to ponder....



Is the good that a person does reason enough to accept abuse and disrespect from them?



Does the fact that a person chooses to sacrifice and give so much of his/her time and effort to a people, compensate for that person becoming dictatorial or tyrannical?



Do great strides allow a government the freedom to trample upon rights they… Continue

Scoping the Amazon: Image, Icon, and Ethnography - Book Review

Since the founding of anthropology as a social science in the late 19th century up through the end of the 20th century, the field has been one of the primary brokers of culture and the industry that surrounds it. Beginning with the founding “fathers” of the field and their desire to define culture and its subsequent particulars, up until recently with struggles over identity and who has the right to define that identity, anthropology has played a major role. This is particularly true in… Continue

Request for Support

I have been fearful of water all my life. There has been a reoccurring dream since I was 9 in which I drown. I am very frightened in the dream.



When I turned 40 a friend asked me to keep an eye on his kayaks while he was away from our island. I took one kayak out to Lago Guajataka and paddled across the lake. There came about a spiritual transformation on that water that cannot be put to words.



I have since spent many mornings hauling my kayak down to the water at 5 m so… Continue

The Lost Taino Tribe Documentary - Being Created From The Input Of The Global Community



I am a filmmaker - born on the island of Vieques, P.R.



According to history - The last Native Taíno revolt against the Spanish crown took place in Vieques

(Taino: Bieques Borikén). The cacique brothers, Cacimar and Yaurèibo, fought to the death on this island.



In recent contemporary history for over half a century my people of Vieques revolted against the U.S. military's use of using their island as target practise by… Continue

Blessings in the Water

43 freaking years old. Freezing my patooty off in the dark, in the rain, away from home, learning drills, trying to keep up with the experienced, or the younger, or the better, or the whatever paddlers, trying to remember not to use my kayaking techniques because I am a dragon boat racer now. Hungry, cold, wet, tired, sore, sick, frustrated at my inability to do it just like the lead coach, Alden, who never bends that inside elbow and does his trunk rotaion with perfection...



WHAT am… Continue

Dragon Wings

Last Wednesday my 6 month old grandaughter passed away. Possibly Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Two years ago on the same date my teen son passed away. These moments challenge us spiritually in ways we can never imagine until we are there. A well known artist in Japan and a good Canadian friend sent me a sculpted dragon (usually sells for $5,000.00 USD) in honor of my son. I was told that many Japanese believe the human spirit after death soars with… Continue

HACIA DONDE NOS LLEVA EL PROGRESO ?

Pero esto sigue pasando y nadie hace nada por parar esta situacion .

Health Care In Indigenous Guatemala: Book Review

Indigenous peoples around the world are at the center of many conflicts: natural resource management, intellectual property rights, sovereignty, identity, and health care to name just a few. In each country, and among each indigenous group, these conflicts differ. Adding to the complexity of each idiosyncratic conflict is the continued encroachment of non-indigenous (primarily Western) cultural practices, exacerbating specific situations for each indigenous group. The country and indigenous… Continue

http://ioumoulicou.wordpress.com/2008/03/20/le-projet-youmoulikou/

Last year, we crossed the channel beetween Martinica and Dominica. We did it in six hours, with paddles, in a kalinago pirogue. This blog is explaining our preparation and our adventure.
We project to do the same adventure (with our pirogue) but we'll arrived at Boriken.

I hope you understand my english, because, I'm french and it's not easy for me to write english.
Excuse me for that.

The Persistance of Our Tradition



Tau My Relatives

We often refer to something called "Taino Resurgence", a movement that awakened in the hearts of many of our relatives the fervent desire to return to the roots of their Indigenous heritage. The Resurgence has taken many paths and like many such social movements it suffers from growing pains, the greatest of which is disunity. That is not abnormal, and in a sense, there are many in the movement who are making great headway in… Continue

Tying the Knot; the tradition of tying sacred objects together in ancient Taino culture



My Relatives

As many of you already are aware, we in the Caney Indigenous Spiritual Circle celebrate the Spring Equinox with a ceremony that includes the act of separating two traditinal Taino sculpted images which have been kept tied together throughout the winter season.



One of those two images is the sculptural item popularly known by scholars as a "stone collar". We in th Caney Circle call them Coa Hoops. Coa Hoops were… Continue
