    As a Peruvian, who was raised in the US--I love her viewpoint. My mother speaks Quechua because she is from Huancavelica. my dad is limeño but his mother was an indigenous woman who did not know who to read or write, my grandfather signed for her (her excuse was that she couldn’t see). I always wondered on my last name, it was rare to find in the US. turns out my last name comes from Sucre, Selendin, Cajamarca. I dream of the day I get to go to that town. I think it’s beautiful to recognize your roots. I hope more Peruvians reclaim their indigenous identity and don’t forget their Quechua roots, because if you are Peruvian, even if Limeño and “blanquito” you are Serrano de sangre- and you should love it. I stand with her. I’m proud of my mestizo traits.

    Decolonization feels like, tarring down the worlds borders. Deprogramming the mind. Shutting of the internal dialog. And realizing the greater porpoise of life and reality that exist in infinity. The levels and realms or other worlds that exist hidden within our own, that awareness can be experience in the infinite sea of awareness. Being alive. 👁️ & Ofcourse native values and traditions.

    We need to acknowledge all human beings, deserving of respect and equal treatment. Still today we are the only group of people not allowed to exist in the western hemisphere, still not getting respect or equal treatment until our Nations are allowed to exist. Landback is the only way to heal the genocide through sovereignty. People will try and mislabel our landback movement as "recognition" with symbolism sans justice.
    But it's time for our indigenous women to be leaders in this world, time for those like you to undo the harm of colonizers.

    Someone tell her that Polleras are European clothing made famous in Peru during the 1500's. And the Inca are NOT extinct, they are still alive and well in the Cusco region of Peru.
    The rest of Peru, 95% of us are descendant from other native peoples and or mixed with Europeans and to a lesser extend Chinese, Japanese and Africans.
    Peru was created from a coalition of peoples conquered by the Inca who revolted with the aid of the Spanish, to push back and obtain freedom from the Inca empire, who were as brutal as any empire in History is.

    _Sisa was born and raised in Peru and is currently located in Lenape and Siwanoy occupied land_
    Frankly, I am embarrassed for people who think these land acknowledgements give them some type of moral standing. They are based upon the lie that a given territory was taken by the Europeans colonizers from tribes that had been the original settlers of the land. In point of fact, this is pretty much never true. Just as in Europe there is a history of tribes migrating and conquering and colonizing different regions, so too was it in North and South America. All we know is that the Lenape were in the area when the Dutch arrived, but how long had they been there? A hundred years? Fifty? Five hundred? We don't have an accurate picture, but I know one thing: the Lenape and Siwanoy did not migrate across Beringia 10-15,000 years ago and directly settle in the Hudson River Valley. They almost certainly came in to land occupied by a tribe that had been there earlier and pushed them out. In some places we actually know the tribes that were displaced, but that doesn't stop people who are doing land acknowledgements from "acknowledging" that they are on land stolen by the Europeans, completely ignoring the fact that someone else stole it first. This is just pretentious hand wringing about a practice (colonizing and occupying) that has happened all over the world throughout history.

      Additionally, the mestizaje ideology has always tried to extirpate indigenous groups and bring only Western civilization as the only solution to countries like Mexico. It's lead to de-indianization. I suggest reading Mexico Profundo by Guillermo Batalla, a distinguished Mexican anthropologist that goes into all this. It is a very eye-opening read.
