Pride of the Incas: Peru’s Indigenous people at a crossroads | SLICE

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- In southern Peru lies the 15th-century citadel of the Inca, Machu Picchu on a 2,400-metre mountain range. In spite of being dubbed as the ‘Lost City of the Incas’, it still represents Inca spirituality to the Indigenous peoples of the Andes and the Sierra. Despite the discrimination and pressure to conform to the rest of society, the descendants of the Incas wear their traditional garments with pride.
In another part of Peru, the resistance is much more ambiguous. In the village of Shintuya of Madre de Dios region, Machiguenga shaman Mateo speaks on the irreversible influences the Western society has had on Peru’s Indigenous population.

Present Peru is not representative of its advanced past. Culture and ethics have been corrupted by racist Colonialism and sectarian conflict. With the right government, it can rise again. It has great location and creative people.
I have a question. Who has more power president or government?
I've always loved the Peruvian culture, even as far back as studying it in Elementary School in the late 1950's & early 60's.
I can never understand NON-native citizens who view native people as lower class humans. It's an issue prevalent everywhere around the world!
they got it from the colonizers, remember the colonizers were the ones who coined the term indians indios or natives, and they viewed them as savages.
It is how they justify the usurpation of land and displacement of the native populations. It salves a guilty conscience, then they perpetuate this condescending attitude until it becomes normalized. It has happened all over the world. It is both sad and shameful.
@@noeminoemi1350 yup, and since most colonizers were white they created this horrible belief that having certain Eurocentric characteristics is better than being native
@@noeminoemi1350 bullshit. Its from the peruvians himself!!
Except for Peru is 90 percent indeginouse.The ones in the city are also indeginouse but they lost their culture and got assimilated with the Spanish conquerors.
many people forget that so many modern medicines are at first place coming from the knowledge of our Nature medicine from ancient "shamans " or doctors - for example digitalis for heart deseases or chinin from a bark of the tree. Civilisation is a word that is in a way discrimination for humans living in rural places. I hope the respect for this people and their remarcable living with beautiful colred clothes will be high and not disappear.....
In North America, indigenous tribes had a knowledge of agriculture that experts consider to be on par with our modern systems in the colonized West, far more complex than what Europeans had at the time
I’m half German and half Peruvian.😊
And I'm very proud of my Inca roots!
I’m half Peruvian too and I too am proud of roots
I'm Ecuadorian, my husband is Norwegian our son runs around the house pretending to be a warrior screaming "I'm an Inca Viking". Proud of my roots too.
Yeah, being German is something to be proud of. Would be better if you were completely German.
@@solstice1681 it’s only the area of southwest of Ecuador
Stephanie I'm from Ecuador the Incas conquered all of what now is Ecuador so I do believe I must have an ancestor that was Inca 🙂
Working the land is a MASTERS DEGREE! 🤔🤔 A DOCTORATE DEGREE!
It's a lot more involved than just writing prescriptions for off-label usage of drugs to make a killing.
Nah...
@@websurfer5772absolutely wrong. Doctors and pharmacists are literally keeping some people alive.
Those brightly coloured clothes are simply magnificent!
Such Beautiful souls! They will probably be the ones to survive the coming magnetic pole shift !
I am from same community us hilario and don santiago from cuncani this video sorprise me is apsolutly fantastic
Keep calm and continue upload more videos si
I wish my country would value our culture and ancestry, seeing such grand architecture left by the Incas should give us sense of pride and ability to whatever we put our minds to it.
Wow....every where else in the world and right here in america the highland peruvians are extremley respected......the last thing i ever thought id hear in a million years was that their own people hate on them call them dirty names and are ashamed of them because they choose to live in the high mountains...wow. thats absolutley crazy i mean that dude was really bothered with the peoole calling them "indians" dang he lives in q paradise man skrew what those haters think. Yall wear bright colors because god made you highley decorated my people
Please smone tell them no one hates them. They dont hv to play guilty card as long as land is theirs n they are to maintain it in a way it doesnt affect rest of the world. They need to manage air most of all, it spreads to the world without anyone be able to see that. Be responsible, and dont think anyone has the right to hate you. The land is yours. Protect it with your might. Gods are with you. Not just one but many.
I've been to that valley and discrimination does exist. If a person wears indigenous dress, people make certain assumptions about their social status and their knowledge. People who have professional jobs (teachers, doctors, lawyers, administrators, etc.) don't wear indigenous dress and they generally don't speak Quechua, and the youth learn at an early age that the indigenous are lower status in society. The education system teaches the youth that Quechua doesn't have the same value as Spanish and most of the youth aren't learning Quechua. Quechua needs to be taught in schools just like Spanish, but it isn't, so it is disappearing. The strange dynamic is that the tourists come to take pictures of indigenous peoples, but then the locals don't want to be indigenous.
@@amosbatto3051thats insanely sad. Someone if the higher up needs to go and show them their loved ones
Maravilloso 🎉
My family are from these mountains , one day ill visit
Hope you can make it soon ! Un abrazo fuerte !
I feel proud to see my landas and colture in this clip thanks bro i am one of them A little more about inca descendants YT channel by peruvian native posive people check it out CANDERIAN
Idk why Peruvians hate each other when there from the same race general group it's ridiculous.
It’s not the same race, there are whites, mestizos, criollos, blacks, Asians, and then the indigenous. Do you not know history? 😂
@@jayandree4361 No shit Sherlock in those terms obviously...🤦 What I meant was idk why they hate each other when there there same race specifically the mestizos an indigenous ... mestizos is infact half indigenous same race .
@@jayandree4361ooh nice, using terms coined by the Spanish colonisers. Most of the population is either completely indigenous or has a high %age of indigenous DNA
tbh it's common in many nations. In Italy people hate each other even if they're from the same region.
You are completely wrong. There are black, white and asian peruvians also, not all peruvians are indians or are “the same”. Me for example Im a peruvian of european blood, my grand parents were from England, but Ive born and live all my life in Lima. In Lima there is a lot of real white peruvians and i strongly feel that most part of humanity is not aware of the existence of white peruvians for example.
Let God come for your aid and you can protect what is yours - the land! No one will be able to hate you even if they wanted to.
native people ! 😊😊😊😊
You were there first so they are envy of you
Unfortunately many people are clueless to what a rich history they bring to our world , it’s like this in America we call our’s First Nations ( the first people ) out of respect
Icas where the kings and queens of the quechuas. The quechuas still live today.
♥️

My folks mostly Afro Peruvians
??? Q hablas, somos mestizos en su mayoría mezcla indígena con blanco.
These films are way too short, they deserve at least 1 or 1.5 hour. The film suddenly stops witch doesn't do right to the stories you tell, very bad format and concept for these kind of topics called 'Slice'.
The Incas do not exist anymorre. These people are different tribes that ecisted during the Inca times.
🤔🤔
Muka indonesia
They don't look Indonesian, they look Tibetan.
So there government hates them? Why is it a issue for others??? Vote better!
They aren't majority so they aren't the deciding voter base, also they did manage to get in a pro Indigenous candidate recently but he was couped and thrown in jail by the military and the new president they installed to replace him is committing massacres against native protestors.

The two weeks of climate discussions at the COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, ended in disappointment. As CNN wrote, “The world has failed to reach an agreement to phase out fossil fuels … an attempt to address the biggest source of the planet warming emissions that are causing the climate crisis ended in a fiasco after a number of nations, including China and Saudi Arabia, blocked a key proposal to phase out all fossil fuels, not just coal.” While the members reached an agreement “to set up a ‘loss and damage’ fund meant to help vulnerable countries cope with climate disasters,” it will not reverse climate change or solve our major problems.
We may be able to assist with local climate crises, but we cannot change the global climate with our current attitude. If we want to change the climate, we must change it on all levels, and first and foremost the social climate we have created. As long as it is negative, aggressive, and heating up, the global climate will reflect it.
The reason we hold global climate conferences is that the climate is a global issue. Everything we do, in any country, affects the global climate. Therefore, without global mutual consideration, humanity will not be able to resolve the climate crisis.
Regrettably, to work in global mutual consideration, we must develop empathy toward all of humanity and rise above the narrow interests of each country. We are nowhere near such an attitude. On the contrary, each country tries to impose decisions that serve its own interests on the rest of the world, and the result is a climate world war where everyone loses.
As is the case with every war, the rich and powerful countries set the tone. They continue to burn fuels that pollute the air and accelerate climate change, and nothing will stop them unless natural disasters become so extreme that they will force all of humanity to change. In the meantime, as lip service, or perhaps to buy the world’s consent, they set up “loss and damage” funds to “repair” the damage. Such funds do not solve anything, and everyone realizes this.
Besides extreme weather and climate disasters, the climate crisis has another adverse impact: Icebergs that have been frozen for thousands of years, and often far longer, are thawing. And buried in the ice are countless viruses that have been reawakened, and for which our bodies have no immunity. Scientists are already warning that the next pandemic may actually come not from wild animals or human errors, but from melting icebergs. A paper published two years ago aptly named it the “permafrost pandemic,” and warned of “the risk that deadly diseases from the distant past may return.”
Indeed, if you look at all the crises plaguing the world today, you will find that none of them are local. Covid is a global issue, climate change is affecting the entire planet, rising energy prices and interrupted supply chains are affecting all of humanity, and even a local crisis such as the war in Ukraine has serious consequences for the entire world. The interdependence already affecting all of humanity will only intensify until we are unable to make a single movement, to take a breath, without affecting the entire world.
On the positive side, none of our problems are insurmountable. In every single crisis, if we only work together rather than against each other, it will disappear as though it never existed.
All that is needed in order to fix our every plight is to change our attitude and put humanity first. Since reality is global, so should be our order of priorities. Prioritizing humanity will not only help the entire world, but every single individual, precisely because we are irrevocably interdependent. If we continue to impose a narrow vision on an expansive reality, we will continue to collide with one another and with all of nature. If we change our attitude, we will change the climate, and we will change the world.
