I, Rigoberta Menchú
from Radio Cachimbona
On this public #litreview, Yvette and fellow first-generation Salvi Yale alumna Jencey Paz discuss Rigoberta Menchú's memoir. They discussed the oppressive relationship between ladinos and indigenous communities in Guatemala, critiqued the US imperialist interests that collaborated with the genocidal Guatemalan government during the 36 year Civil War, and emphasized the importance of white and light-skinned Latinos checking themselves when it comes to claiming rights to indigenous art and culture.
