During Hispanic Heritage Month, Edwin Ortiz, President of The National Puerto Rico & Spain Initiative, examines a troubling contradiction: Mexican leaders have demanded that Spain acknowledge historical abuses while Indigenous communities in Mexico continue to face documented discrimination, inadequate protection of ancestral lands, and limited political representation.
This episode of Puerto Rico: Open Your Eyes also explores Indigenous hardships in Guatemala, Ecuador, Chile, and Peru, drawing on United Nations findings. Historical accountability matters. So does protecting Indigenous rights today.
Listen, share, and join the conversation. A government’s commitment to Indigenous dignity must be measured by how it treats living Indigenous people, as well as by what it says about their ancestors.
