DISTRITO FEDERAL AND ESTADO DE MEXICO - POPULATION FIGURES, 1900-2000 State Distrito Federal Percent of National Total Percent of National Total Mexican Republic In A.D. 1111, the Mexica left their native Aztlan to settle in Chicomoztoc (Seven Caves). According to legend, they had offended their patron god Huitzilopochtli by cutting down a forbidden tree. As a result, the Mexica were condemned to leave Aztlan and forced to wander until they received a sign from their gods, directing them to settle down permanently. The land of Atzlan was said to have been a marshy island situated in the middle of a lake. Some historians actually consider the names "Chicomoztoc" and "Aztlan" to be two terms for the same place, and believe that the island and the seven caves are simply two features of the same region. For nearly five centuries, popular imagination has speculated about the location of the legendary Aztlan. Some people refer to Aztlan as a concept, not an actual place that ever existed. The Aztecs It is important to note, however, that the Aztlan migrations were not one simple movement of a single group of people. Instead, as Professor Smith has noted, "when all of the native histories are compared, no fewer than seventeen ethnic groups are listed among the original tribes migrating from Aztlan and Chicomoztoc." It is believed that the migrations southward probably took place over several generations. "Led by priests," continues Professor Smith, "the migrants stopped periodically to build houses and temples, to gather and cultivate food, and to carry out rituals."

LA VOZ DE AZTLAN EXCLUSIVE Aztlan Joins Zapatistas on March into Tenochtitlan The Chicano/Mexicano Delegation's March with Subcomandante Marcos into "El Zocalo" had "Great Symbolic Power and Meaning" by Hector Carreon La Voz de Aztlan Mexico D.F. (March 8, 2001) - (ACN) History of great significance to Aztlan was made on Sunday as Dr. Armando Navarro led a U.S. National Delegation of Chicanos and Mexicanos into the "Heart of Mexico." The immense emotional feeling of re-connecting, along with hundreds of thousands of our brothers and sisters, with the ancient ancestral center of our world, “El Templo Mayor”, was simply overwhelming. The entrance of the Chicano/Mexicano Delegation into "El Zocalo", along with Subcomandante Marcos and 23 of his Comandantes of the Ejercito Zapatista de Liberacion Nacional (EZLN), was the culmination of a process that was begun back on January 1, 1994. That was when the Zapatistas rose up in arms in the southern state of Chiapas to demand equal justice for the approximately 12 million pure indigenous people that comprise about 12 percent of Mexico's 98 million population. A large proportion of the remaining population is "La Raza" or Mestizos (mixed Indigenous/European blood) and only a small portion have pure European (mostly Spanish) ancestry. The uprising left an estimated 150 people dead. Since the EZLN's January 1, 1994 attack on the Mexican Army, which was under the command of President Carlos Salinas, the president at the time, there have been many skirmishes, cease-fires and attempts to negotiate a settlement and achieve peace. The various skirmishes resulted in many Zapatistas being taken prisoners as well as a mobilization of large Mexican Army contingents into the Chiapas region. On April 22, 1995 the Mexican Congress created a special commission called Comision de Concordia y Pacificacion (COCOPA) to renew talks for a settlement and for peace. This San Andres Dialogue resulted in the "San Andres Agreement" reached on February 16, 1996 under then President Ernesto Zedillo. However, the agreement was neither ratified nor implemented by the Mexican Congress.

Indigenous people: Challenges facing the international community Growing public interest in indigenous people and a long process of international negotiations involving indigenous organizations prompted the international community to proclaim 1993 as the International Year of the World's Indigenous People, and then the period 1995-2004 as the International Decade of the World's Indigenous People, to focus on issues of concern to indigenous people. In addition, 9 August has since 1995 been celebrated as the International Day of the World's Indigenous People. Each of these steps has been important in the struggle for the recognition of the rights of indigenous people. These steps are all the more meaningful with the forthcoming anniversary of a landmark human rights document adopted by the United Nations 50 years ago, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Declaration recognizes the inherent dignity of every human being and sets forth in detail the rights to be enjoyed by all "without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status". Within the framework of the World Public Information Campaign, launched by the United Nations in 1988, the Universal Declaration has been translated into more than 40 indigenous languages and widely disseminated among indigenous communities. The United Nations Decade for Human Rights Education (1995-2004) also focuses attention on the importance of human rights education for all, including indigenous people, in view of the problems encountered by indigenous communities.

Who We Are... The Center for World Indigenous Studies (CWIS) is an independent, non-profit [U.S. 501(c)(3)] research and education organization dedicated to wider understanding and appreciation of the ideas and knowledge of indigenous peoples and the social, economic and political realities of indigenous nations. The Center fosters better understanding between peoples through the publication and distribution of literature written and voiced by leading contributors from Fourth World Nations. An important goal of CWIS is to establish cooperation between nations and to democratize international relations between nations and between nations and states Dr. Rudolph C. Ryser, Ph.D. (a member of the Cowlitz Tribe ) and Chief George Manuel (1929-1989) of the Shuswap Nation founded CWIS as an independent organization in the Spring of 1984 in response to calls by the Conference of Tribal Governments in the United States and the World Council of Indigenous Peoples for a documents center. Concerned with the advancement of ideas for solving social, economic and political problems in the Fourth World, the Center for World Indigenous Studies links voluntary contributors world-wide and conducts original research, education, conflict resolution symposia and conferences benefiting constructive relations between nations, and nations and states.

Now there's evidence that the scope of destruction depends on who uses the land and water. A new map shows that natural ecosystems have a better chance of survival when indigenous people inhabit them. Mapmakers working with the Center for the Support of Native Lands, in Arlington, Virginia, and the National Geographic Society, in Washington, D.C., gathered data for 15 months for the landmark project. They superimposed a map of indigenous territories on another one showing forest cover and marine ecosystems. The new map reveals a strong correlation between indigenous presence and the survival of natural ecosystems. The new map is part of an effort to bring the tools of cartography to indigenous cultures. Activists hope it could empower Central America and southern Mexico's native peoples to preserve their cultures and ancestral lands.

A member of any of the indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere. The ancestors of the Native Americans are generally considered by scientists to have entered the Americas from Asia by way of the Bering Strait sometime during the late glacial epoch. Native American adj. USAGE NOTE Many Americans have come to prefer Native American over Indian both as a term of respect and as a corrective to the famous misnomer bestowed on the peoples of the Americas by a geographically befuddled Columbus. There are solid arguments for this preference. Native American eliminates any confusion between indigenous American peoples and the inhabitants of India, making it the clear choice in many official contexts. It is also historically accurate, despite the insistence by some that Indians are no more native to America than anyone else since their ancestors are assumed to have migrated here from Asia. But one sense of native is “being a member of the original inhabitants of a particular place,” and Native Americans' claim to being the original inhabitants of the Americas is unchallenged.•Accuracy and precision aside, however, the choice between these two terms is often made as a matter of principle.

OEA/Ser.L/V/II.100 Doc. 7 rev. 1 September 24, 1998 Original: Spanish REPORT ON THE SITUATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN MEXICO CHAPTER VII THE SITUATION OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLES AND THEIR RIGHTS I. GENERAL SITUATION 506. Mexico's indigenous population is estimated to number 10 million, or a little over 10per cent of its total population. Around 6.5 million of these people speak one of the 59 different autochthonous languages and retain their own cultural values, their own relationship with nature, their own system of justice and their own methods of organizing production. They also identify themselves as indigenous people. 508. A large percentage of Mexico's indigenous peoples maintain their own identity to a great extent and live in villages and districts regarded as "indigenous". Indeed, 28 per cent of the country's towns or villages have a significant indigenous population. A survey by the National Indigenous Institute of Mexico, which was based on the 1990 national census, showed that there are at least 13,179 localities that are predominantly indigenous (where 70 per cent or more of the population speak an indigenous language) and 4,359 towns with a less concentrated indigenous population (where from 30 per cent to 69 per cent of the population speak an indigenous language). 509. These predominantly indigenous localities (more than 17,000) account for 7 per cent of the country's population. When added to the 26,680 towns and villages with a scattered indigenous population, we see that there is a significant or predominant indigenous population in 28 per cent of the towns and villages in the country. Most of them (60.7 per cent) have a population of less than 500, and 13.8 per cent of them have between 500 and 2,500 inhabitants. The remainder of the indigenous people, approximately one-third to one-fourth of them, lives in larger cities.

People everywhere, often without realizing it, have been influenced by the cultures and achievements of indigenous peoples through the foods on our tables, the words in our languages and the medicines we use daily for everything from headaches to heart disease. Many of the world's staple foods, such as peppers, potatoes, lentils, peas, sugar cane, garlic and tomatoes, were first cultivated by indigenous peoples. From the various indigenous languages of the Americas come familiar words like canoe, barbecue, squash, powwow and moccasin. An estimated 75 per cent of the world's plant-based pharmaceuticals, including aspirin, digitalis and quinine, have been derived from medicinal plants found in tribal areas. Indeed, the contribution of indigenous peoples to modern civilization is pervasive. What are the living conditions of indigenous peoples? Despite their diversity, they face similar problems. Under the march of colonialism, the spread of non-indigenous religions and the relentless pace of development and modernization, indigenous groups have seen their traditional cultures eroded and their landholdings confiscated or signed away as part of the economic coercion to which they were subjected. This legacy has helped to make indigenous peoples some of the most disadvantaged groups on Earth.

Rural Workers and Indigenous People Hector Diaz-Polanco. La Rebelion Zapatista y la Autonomia. Mexico: Siglo-Veintiuno Editores, 1997. Hector Diaz-Polanco, a researcher at the Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios Superiores en Antropologia Social (CIESAS) in Mexico City and an advisor to the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN), has been one of the foremost interpreters of autonomy movements in Latin America and one of the strongest advocates of regional, territorial and political autonomy for the Indian peoples of Mexico. A Dominican by birth, Diaz-Polanco spent time in Nicaragua as an advisor to the regional indigenous movements there. In this book Diaz-Polanco argues that the EZLN-led Chiapas rebellion of 1994 put the issue of autonomy at the top of the political agenda in Mexico. As Diaz-Polanco sees it, one of the greatest contributions of the EZLN was to link the Chiapas Indians' demand for autonomy with the national struggles for democracy and social justice, and to link the guerrillas and the Indian movement to the broader struggles of Mexican civil society. This comprehensive book discusses the history of the indigenous peoples' autonomy struggles in Mexico since the conquest, the contemporary social and economic situation of the Indians of Mexico, and the political struggle between the Indians and the Mexican state. Diaz-Polanco examines the autonomy agreements between Greenland and Denmark and between Nicaragua and its costal regions as models for future autonomy agreements in Latin America and other parts of the world.

printer-friendly PDF version Citizen Action in the Americas Indigenous Communities in Latin America: Fighting for Control of Natural Resources in a Globalized Age Since the resistance to colonization, native peoples in the Americas have fought to protect their dwindling territories and their right to manage the natural resources found there. But in this globalized age, that battle has intensified and taken on distinctive characteristics, posing new and profound challenges for the region's indigenous communities. Many of the natural resources found on Indian lands have become more valuable in the context of the modern global economy. Several factors have spurred renewed interest in natural resources on Indian lands in Latin America, among them the mobility of capital, ecological limits to growth in developed countries, lax environmental restrictions in underdeveloped nations, lower transportation costs, advances in biotechnology, cheap third world labor, and national privatization policies. Limits to logging in developed countries have led timber transnationals overseas. Increased demand and higher prices for minerals have generated the reopening of mines and the proliferation of small-scale mining operations. Rivers are coveted for their hydroelectric potential, and bioprospecting has put a price tag on biodiversity. Originally considered lands unsuitable for productive activities, the resources on Indian lands are currently the resources of the future. Indian land rights and decisionmaking authority regarding natural resource use on territories to which they hold claim threaten the mobility of capital and access to resourceskey elements of the transnational-led globalization model. Accordingly, increased globalization has generally sharpened national conservative opposition to indigenous rights in the Americas and elsewhere in the name of "making the world safe for investment." The World Trade Organization (WTO), free trade agreements, and transnational corporations are openly hostile to any legislation that might create barriers to investment or the unlimited exploitation of natural resources on Indian lands. The result has been a growing number of conflicts between indigenous communities and governments and transnational corporations over control of natural resources.

CONTEXT More than 1/3 of the population of Chiapas are Mayan Indians who maintain their cultural traditions, languages, and communal lifestyles despite centuries of colonialism and marginalization. The interests of Mexican elites and transnational corporations to exploit Chiapas's great natural wealth (petroleum, hydroelectric power, hardwood forests) has come into conflict with the desires of indigenous peoples to live an alternative economic model. Following the Zapatista uprising in January, 1994, the Mexican government implemented a low-intensity warfare strategy relying on militarization and paramilitarization to thwart indigenous resistance.

96. Nevermore A Mexico Without Us.... Statement From The Indians No mexico without our involvement! mexico needs its indigenous people mexico –no longer without our participation! mexico for the people – all its people! http://www.aidoh.dk/art_and_events/pos/mexico/ukposmexindians.htm

'Nevermore a Mexico without us' They stole our fruit, they cut off our branches, they burnt our trunks, but they could not kill our roots. The indigenous people have their own deep-rooted cultural heritage through which they experience the basis of life itself. These conditions provide hope for life, both for mankind and for the nature of which Man is so integral a part. For five hundred years unscrupulous forces have waged war against our people. They have forced access to our resources and they have stolen our spiritual values. They have attempted to subdue, bribe, or extirpate whole populations. They have trampled justice into the dust, and they have introduced legislation in order to justify their injustice. For more than five hundred years our people have fought against this injustice. In the course of time millions of brave people have lost their lives in the fight to create a better world for our children. And the fight continues to claim its victims. The San Andrés agreements of February 1996, signed by the federal government and the EZLN, strongly emphasised the need to create a new relationship between the State of Mexico, the national community, and the indigenous population. Unfortunately, as we approach the millennium, the government continues to go back on its word, and instead commits new atrocities against our people. On 22 December 1997, paramilitaries massacred 45 martyrs in the village of Acteal in Chiapas. Men, women and children were murdered while they prayed for peace. Together with the many other thousands of victims of the brutal power of money, they will give us new strength in our march forwards.
