This Spanish conversation and composition textbook explores indigenous cultures throughout Latin America from a decolonial standpoint which challenges the impacts of colonization and unlearns the legacies it has left behind. We will recognize that such cultures offer insights and alternatives to resolving modern-day crises – including climate change, food sovereignty, healthcare access, and gender inequalities – while refraining from romanticizing an idealized past.
