Beskrivning
Second Place Winner of the 2020 International Latino Book Award for Best History BookNación Genízara examines the history, cultural evolution, and survival of the Genízaro people. The contributors to this volume cover topics including ethnogenesis, slavery, settlements, poetics, religion, gender, family history, and mestizo genetics. Fray Angélico ChÁvez defined Genízaro as the ethnic term given to indigenous people of mixed tribal origins living among the Hispano population in Spanish fashion. They entered colonial society as captives taken during wars with Utes, Apaches, Comanches, Kiowas, Navajos, and Pawnees. Genízaros comprised a third of the population by 1800. Many assimilated into Hispano and Pueblo society, but others in the land-grant communities maintained their identity through ritual, self-government, and kinship.Today the persistence of Genízaro identity blurs the lines of distinction between Native and Hispanic frameworks of race and cultural affiliation. This is the first study to focus exclusively on the detribalized Native experience of the Genízaro in New Mexico.

A historical shroud has long concealed the history and legacy of an important segment of the New Mexico population, Indian slaves known as genízaros. With the help of experts in many fields, Nación Genízara has removed much of this shroud, revealing a rich new layer of regional society and culture." - Richard Melzer, coauthor of A History of New Mexico Since Statehood"This groundbreaking anthology brings together the latest scholarship on Genízaros, a uniquely New Mexican ethnic identity, which is the object of a burgeoning, multidisciplinary field of study." - Rick Hendricks, coauthor of Four Square Leagues: Pueblo Indian Land in New Mexico
