By focusing on the efforts of the National Coordination of Indigenous Women (CONAMI) to dismantle racism, sexism, ageism, and other forms of discrimination, this book challenges outdated assumptions about the roles of Indigenous people—especially women—in creating proactive, responsive, and socially progressive peace epistemologies.
The book dismantles prevalent misconceptions surrounding Indigenous peoples’ epistemologies on peace, arguing that the peace epistemologies which Indigenous peoples have built do not correspond to the past but are changing, living theories created and recreated through praxis. By examining the knowledge that members of the National Coordination of Indigenous Women (CONAMI) have built through their collective struggle in favor of Indigenous self-determination, this work illustrates how Indigenous women play a central role in revitalizing the worldviews of their peoples and fostering social change.
