“Dad, tell me again, why did you have to go so far away?”
“We hoped that way the claim for our land would finally be heard, my son.”
“But is the land not already ours?”
“Yes, son. It always has been. But some people want this fact to be forgotten, as we ourselves have been.” *

A diversidade de expressões identitárias tem sido um tema recorrente nos últimos anos. Conceitos e percepções foram estabelecidos sob os recorrentes efeitos da globalização no contexto urbano; no entanto, estes nem sempre respondem, traduzem ou incluem toda a diversidade que existe no mundo.
Cultural Survival calls for solidarity with the Yvy Pyte community of the Paĩ Tavyterã Indigenous Peoples in the department of Amambay, Paraguay, who have been threatened and attacked by illegal invaders in their territories since 2021.
Indigenous women have managed to break many barriers and access spaces historically reserved for white men. They have positioned themselves as agents of change, incorporating ancestral knowledge from their communities. From medicine, art, gastronomy, music, to linguistics, these young women are leading movementns of resistance and transformation. Their impact on shifting current paradigms should be uplifted on every occasion.
