Emergency Support Needed!
Paez People left Homeless, Injured, Orphaned

ighteen Indigenous communi
tics disappeared beneath tons of
mud and rock after a massive
earthquake registering 6.3 on the Richter scale struck northern Colombia's
remote Cauca region which is inhabited primarily by Indigenous people.
The quake struck on june 6, with its
epicenter close to the town of Toribio,
releasing a series of debris slides and
flooding of the Paez and Moros rivers.
The list of dead, disappeared and injured grows daily. Indigenous organizations report that government aid to

not received treatment and that people

State of Emergency
Declared in Ecuador:
Reports of I 5 Indigenous Activists Killed
cuadorian President SLxto Duran-Ballen declared a
State of Emergency on june 21 and the following day
gave the militmy sweeping powers to •restore order•
throughout the country. Indigenous organizations led by
the Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador
(CONAIE) are blockading roads and demonstnning to
demand the govemmem revoke the new agricultural development law. The military has surrounded CONAIE offices
and are seeking arrest of the organization's leaders who are
now in hiding. Increased repression is feared.
The Ecuadorian government ignored repeated calls by
CONAJE and popular organizations for national consultations on proposed agricultural bills. Instead it swiftly
approved new legislation on june 13. President DuranBallen claims the new law will modernize the country's
agricultural sector. Indigenous organizations called the law
unconstitutional, stating that it will destroy their agricultural economy, threaten Indigenous systems of land tenure,
and drive thousands to immigrate to city slums in search of
work. Today. the country's constitutional court ruled the
new law to be unconstitutional. but observers think the
government may ignore this ruling.
CONAIE organized a massive "Mobilization for Life' to
demand the law be revoked. The mobil.ization has nearly
paralyzed nine of 21 Ecuadorian provinces. This is the
fourth nationwide mobili.zation led by CONAIE since the
well-known Indian uprising in 1990. In a gesture that was
both symbolic and concrete, CONAIE has stalled the flow
of agricultural goods to several cities. The govemmem
Stated that three year sentences would be given to those
protesters who disobe)'ed the state of emergency. CONAl E
responded, "The decision of our grassroots is to remain
where they are until the law is repeated. If all the
dimensions of the conOict are taken into account, the
imposition of a state of emergenC)' is a virtual declaration
of war against the Indigenous people and the majority of
the country.•

Five Indigenous protesters have been killed in the highlands, and there are unconflm1cd reports that 10 people
were killed by police while peacefully blocking a road to an
oil well in Lago Agrio in the t\mazon. The number of those
injured and detained is unknown. A radio station in
Latacunga belonging to the Catholic Church was occupied
and ransacked by security forces. and one of the staff
detained. Protesters have been harassed and threatened for
the last two weeks. and tensions are extremely high.
On june 20. after two weeks of protest, the government
invited Indigenous organizations to negotiations. but broke
off talks the next day. lndigenot\S organizations demand
that the agricultural law be revoked before negotiating the
shape of new legislation. The government would agree only
to modifying the new law. CONAIE and the environmental
group Accion Ecologica point out that the new law promotes privatization of communal properties, fails to recognize Indigenous systems and concepts of land tenure as
legitimate, and will promote agroindustry and livestock
grazingat the ex-pense of small farmers who now account for
75% of the country's agricultural production. -t
Please send lettet'S to President Duran BaUen urging
the Ecuadorian governmem to negotiate a peaceful
resolution to tbe conflict, tO immediately halt repression directed against CONAIE and other Indigenous
groups and to respect Indigenous organizations' just
demands.

Much Work Ahead for Indigenous Historians
here are few texts in which indigenous voices speak
for themselves. This historiography srill needs to be
wriuen by both men and women of Abya Yala. Until
today our histO\Y has been oral. Generally, our voices have
been recorded in colonial languages, which in effect. are
translations. Our own literature, should be caustic, in
regard to those texts which have relegated us to being
objws of study. Maybe those who objectify us forget that
we can read their accounts. Here is a sample of three
relevam texts: Tlte Elder Brothers: A lose South Anwican
People and rheir· Wisdom (1990) by Alan Ereira; War of
Slraclows( 1991) by Michael Brown and Eduardo Femandez;
Indigenous Voices (1992) b)•Roger Mood)•. In contraposirion,
we can t!nd texts (e.g., Taraqu written by the A)•mara
historian Carlos Mamani Condon in 1991) that have been
written by indigenous people themselves. presenting a

different voice.
Ereira's book is a good example of "colonial anguish".
We do not believe that indigenous peoples' stntgglescan be
understood until colonial attitudes are abandoned when
facing indigenous cultures. In his account. Ereira "be·
comes' rhe spokesperson for the Kogi people of the Sierra
of Santa Mana in Colombia. In very few pages can we hear
tl1c Kogi's own voices. Instead, the author-historian basically presents his own saga which coincides with those of
the Kogi. who are a living example of what Europe and the
United States call 'ecological susrainability'. This book
does, however, illustrate the constant threats experienced
by the Kogi, and their efforts ro live ham1oniously with

naLure.
Michael Brown and Eduardo Fernandez's book documents the guerrilla phenomenon in f&gt;en•. describing the
Ashaninka Indigenous tribe's experiences as they struggle
to win a fight that is not theirs. The heroes in this account
are the guerrillas and the authors themselves. The
Ashaninkas' voices arc barely heard throughout the book.
The text should be considered as a history of the sixties and
seventies of Pert&gt;, but not of the Ashaninkas, except as
victims of the political left and right, the missionaries, the
government and the armed forces.
Moody's Indigenous Voices is a collection of indigenous
texts. Moody takes advantage of the demands published by
Indigenous leaders in the Working Group of the United
Nations, and decided to compile them into a book. Moody's
project is highly questionable given that the texts printed
were all produced by indigenous nations, yet there is not a
single instance in the book in which the Indigenous con·
tribmors were invited ro participate in the editing process.
In a world where publications are the equivalent of business
cards. indigenous peoples are once again objects of the text,
rather than subjects capable of articulating our own ideas.
In contrast to the above texts is Mamani Condori's
Taraqu, which is one of the first texts produced by an
Aymara historian. He sraned by studying docurnems
related to rheAymara territories. In an eloquent job. Tar(J{p'
presents the Aymaras' voices. who are thus the text1S ultimate owners. This text shows more than ever, that it is
imperative for the nation-stares ro recognize the Aymara as
the legimitare caretakers of their territory and halt the
abusesdirectedagainsrthem. Mamani Condori is a member
of the Andean Oral History Workshop in Chuquiyawu,
Kollasuyo. in Bolivia. 'I!)
