Through case studies that include testimonios and other Indigenous storytelling practices, Ríos reveals how cultural logics of colonization continue to shape--and often constrain--understandings of indigeneity across Latin America and in the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Addressing different genres of human and what contemporary indigeneity and reclaiming indigeneity looks like across Latin American contexts, chapters in this work examine digital bruja poetry, Aymara women's Lucha Libre in Bolivia, Raramuri dance in Mexico, and Indigenous Khipu in the Andes. The author weaves her own story of being from southern Texas and traveling to Mexico throughout the book. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Bridging Sylvia Wynter's theory of \"genres of the human\" with critical Latinx indigeneity studies, Chicana\/o\/x studies, decolonial theory, and rhetorical new materialisms, this book challenges readers to rethink what it means to be human, Indigenous, and Chicanx in the wake of colonial violence. Rather than reinforcing binaries defined by settler colonialism, Ríos proposes a framework that centers community knowledge and grounded practices. Her work opens space for dialogue, listening, and healing, emphasizing that reclaiming indigeneity requires attention to the stories, movements, and rhetorical practices that emerge from within communities themselves.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGabriela Raquel Ríos is an assistant professor with a joint appointment in the Program for Writing and Rhetoric and the English Department at the University of Colorado.
