9 Jun 2009Last month I wrote about how Peruvian Quechua Congresswoman Hilaria Supa was under attack in Peru, with her Indigenous identity being attacked as a deficiency in her work.
Carlos in DC, who generally dislikes me and VivirLatino for claiming Latino identity, had the opportunity to interview Supa when she was here in NYC speaking at the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues. In the three part interview Carlos asks Supa about Indigenous identity, the value of the Coca leaf, and the attacks on her from the mainstream Peruvian press.
You can see the entire three part interview here.
VivirLatino is a daily publication published by Mamita Mala Media, dedicated to featuring all the latest politics, culture, entertainment of interest to the diverse Latin@ diaspora.
