The confrontation escalated and in the ensuing gun battle, a policeman was killed. This documentary captures in detail the struggles of the Mohawk people against the federal and provincial governments, the Canadian army, and the stone throwing rioters that the Surete du Quebec were unable to control. 1992. 105 min.

   Extractions: The first contingent of humans arrived in North America from Asia during the glacial age which began some 40 thousand years ago. From North America they entered Central America sometime between 13 000 BCE and 7500 BCE spreading from there to South America. Relatively little is known about the inhabitants of Latin America during this period since our knowledge about them is based solely on excavations. However, despite the early arrival of people in Central and South America it was not until 2000 BCE that the first permanent villages showing some kind of social organisation appeared, leading to the formation of high civilisations and social stratification such as the Olmecs that flourished around 1300 BCE or the Mayas that appeared in the first millenium BCE. The settlements in Latin America varied immensely from one place to another. While societies such as the Inca of the Andes and the Maya, Olmec and Aztec of Central America developed a high level of culture, others kept a rather tribal structure. Generalisation about these cultures is, therefore, problematic. In spite of these differences it is possible to identify certain common characteristics in both high civilizations and tribal societies such as animism, a cult of ancestors and continuity between religion and political power. In some societies the mediation between the supernatural and the natural was done through a hierarchically organized body of priests, in other societies a more democratic kind of shamanistic practice was stronger.

    http://www.socioambiental.org/pib/english/whwhhow/who/defi.shtm
    
    Extractions: :: Around the world Introduction Today, talking about Indigenous peoples in Brazil means to recognize basically that: (1) in the lands colonized by the Portuguese, where later a country called Brazil would exist, there were already human populations; (3) certain groups of people who live in present-day Brazil are historically connected to these early peoples; (5) like any other human group, Indigenous peoples have cultures that result from the history of the relationships among themselves and between them and the environment; a history that, in their case, has been (and continues to be) dramatically altered by the reality of colonization; Generically, the Indigenous peoples that live not only in Brazil but also in the entire American continent are called Indians. This name is the result of a historical mistake made by the first Europeans who arrived in America, who thought they had reached India. The continuous use of the word, even by the Indians themselves, has made it a synonym of an Indigenous person in Brazil.

Food of the God's Festival, Oaxaca, Mexico Mexico and Central American Cultural Adventures Tour Hosts Review by Sheri Leigh Since the general interest these days is to stay a bit closer to home, we have decided to focus on the wonderful history of our neighbors to the south: Mexico and Central America. Their proximity to each other makes them a natural combination for this issue. The region abounds with monuments and history, ranging from the pre-Columbian cultures of the Maya, Toltecs, Olmecs and other civilizations to the great colonial-era cities, to today’s eight sovereign nations. We hope this issue will broaden the region’s scope in readers’ eyes. Mexico with its diverse geography of mountains, beaches, valleys and deserts, offers a wealth of travel opportunities. Rich in history, culture, archeological sites, natural wonders and great regional cuisines, most any traveler there can find a location to suit his interests.

    Extractions: GENERAL OVERVIEW OF THE INSTITUTE FOR CENTRAL AMERICAN STUDIES (ICAS) BACKGROUND The Institute for Central American Studies (ICAS) is dedicated to the cause of peace, justice and the well-being of the people and land of Central America. ICAS was founded and incorporated in San José, Costa Rica in 1982, exclusively for educational purposes. Such purposes include: acquisition, maintenance and dissemination of reliable information about conditions and developments in Central America; facilitating dialogue about Central America and the issues that affect the region; and conducting study seminars, educational programs and language studies. ICAS has no partisan allegiances or alliances. It is supported solely by subscriptions to its publication, Mesoamerica , by income from educational programs and by contributions from private organizations and individuals. Mesoamerica is published monthly with the goal of furthering understanding of the realities of Central America. Mesoamerica has provided accurate and timely reporting along with thoughtful analysis for the past 17 years. Regular coverage includes economics and politics, as well as the human realities of the people of Central America, all within the perspective of the particular history of each country. INTERNSHIP PROGRAM We believe our internship program gives valuable practical experience in the areas of journalism and Latin American studies, as well as the opportunity to live in a cross-cultural situation. Interns have opportunities to participate in seminars, attend press conferences, lectures and workshops, and take (or audit) university classes.

    Extractions: Indigenous people in South America Poverty and a new ethnic politics have spawned radical Indian movements in the Andean countries. Are these a threat or a boost to democracy? LUCIO GUARACHI was born in a village on Bolivia's windswept Altiplano, some 4,000 metres (13,000 feet) above sea level. Of Andean Indian descent, he speaks Aymara as well as Spanish. Since he was ten, he has lived mainly in El Alto, an ever-expanding satellite city of 700,000 people whose self-built houses of bare brick or mud and corrugated iron straggle out into the Altiplano above Bolivia's capital, La Paz. He works, when there is work, in a small workshop making water pumps. Last October, he helped to overthrow an elected president. El Alto was the scene of battles between the army and well-organised protestors that ended with at least 59 dead and the resignation of President Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, a pro-American mining magnate. The ostensible motive for the protests was a scheme by multinational companies to export liquefied natural gas from Bolivia to California via Chile.
