Decolonizing politics and theories from the Abya Yala

This MIDEQ Share Out is a discussion of the book "Decolonizing Politics and Theories from the Abya Yala", co edited by Fernando David Márquez Duarte and Víctor Alejandro Espinoza Valle.
This book addresses, from a decolonial approach, various aspects of the original history of Abya Yala. Together, the chapters provide a critical view of the colonization of Indigenous Peoples that not only explains social or economic subjugation of Latin American people, but also makes it clear that colonization is ontological and epistemological.
The event, chaired by MIDEQ Director Heaven Crawley, features a discussion on the concepts and terms presented in the book by co-editor Fernando David Márquez Duarte. Following this will be a discussion on domination, racism, and structural violence in Guatemala by Miguel Alejandro Saquimux Contrera
