Indigenous Feminism in Mexico Sample Clauses

Indigenous Feminism in Mexico. In the evolution of Mexican feminism, indigenous women were also able to conquer spaces and to speak up about their specific needs. Two important events stimulated the emergence of a female indigenous movement: the movement of 500 Años de Resistencia Indígena, Negra y Popular in 1992 – a movement that rose from the Encuentro de Dos Mundos: 1492-1992 –, and the uprising of the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (EZLN) in 1994. These events found their origin in the peasant and popular revolts after 1968 in the context of the political and economic crisis. 36 For more information on the earthquake of 1985: X. X.

They emphasized the inequalities, and showed how discrimination based on class and race had become natural in Mexico. The general discontent resulted in a struggle of the peasant and popular movement against the existing political structures, and against the omnipresent clientelism and paternalism (Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 2010: 86-87). The uprising of the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional on the 1st of January 1994 was a turning point for the indigenous movement. The main demands of the Mexican indigenous movement were the observance of constitutional rights and of their specific indigenous rights, and free determination and autonomy of indigenous peoples. Together with the Zapatista uprising, a movement of indigenous women emerged. These women supported the claim of autonomy based on ethnicity and culture of the Zapatista movement, but in addition, they opposed the subordination and discrimination they experienced as women.
