Identity Crisis! You’re Not Hispanic, Indigenous, or Mestizo? Anáhuac, Identity, and the New Sun

In this thought-provoking episode of the Offerings of Copal podcast, host Cihua Mazatl delves into the complex and deeply personal journey of reconnecting with Indigenous roots in a modern world. Following Indigenous Peoples Day, Cihua explores the significance of identity, indigeneity, and the challenges of decolonization.

Join Cihua Mazatl as they discuss the intricacies of identity within the Latinx community, the impact of colonial erasure, and the importance of reclaiming Indigenous heritage. This episode sheds light on the struggles faced by both those who are deeply connected to traditional communities and those seeking to reconnect with their ancestral ties.

Through a reflective narrative, Cihua shares the historical and cultural context of Indigenous identity, while also addressing contemporary issues such as the term "Pretendian" and the movement towards rematriation. Listen to Cuauhtémoc's consigna, a powerful message that inspires unity and preservation of culture.

Ultimately, this episode encourages listeners to reflect on their own roots, reconnect with the land, and contribute positively to the movement for Indigenous rights and environmental stewardship. It's a call to action for unity, respect, and healing in a time when it is needed most.
