SOCIAL STUDIES World History and Cultures Explore the Heritage of Indigenous Peoples The Inuit people survived the frozen Arctic north for centuries through a modest hunting and trapping lifestyle. Today, some Inuit writers have employed the most modern of technologies, the Internet, to tell about their culture and history. You can read about Nunavut, the lands inhabited by Inuit ancestors that in 1999 became a separate territory in Canada, and even see a map of it. Like the Inuit, the Sami people of Scandinavia have sought to regain land upon which their ancestors lived. In their Web site, these descendants of Europe's far north write of a history music From the far north, travel to sub-Saharan Africa to learn about the history and art of the Yoruba . These semi-independent peoples lived in highly complex kingdoms , but their way of life was vastly changed after many of their people were captured for the slave trade to the Western Hemisphere. By looking at their art and artifacts , you can see how the beliefs and ways of the Yoruba have been passed on until today.

Haiti Located in the Caribbean, between Cuba, Puerto Rico and Jamaica, this island (originally called Hispaniola or 'little Spain' by the Spanish) is inhabited by two independent nations, the Republic of Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

The Tainos were a gentle and calm people who had migrated from South America centuries earlier. Soon after the Spanish arrived however, most were soon wiped out by enslavement, disease or massacre. Bartolomew de Las Casas Back to top In later years, Spanish priest Bartolomew de Las Casas, fought against the massacre of the Indians and demanded that the injustices committed every day against the indigenous people in Hispaniola was stopped. And as a way of ending this form of indigenous slavery, he strongly encouraged the importation of Blacks from Africa to work on the mines. So, it was partly due to him, that in 1503, the first Africans were brought to Hispaniola as slaves.

Spotlight on Teaching Volume 1, Number 2 May 1993 © American Academy of Religion 1993, 2002 Mental Illness, Ritual Action, Ritual Failure: Teaching About Religion in Africa E. Thomas Lawson Western Michigan Univ. The entire African continent, and especially the religious life and thought which permeates it, is largely ignored in the academic study of religion. Because of this unfortunate neglect, it is especially important that those scholars who do teach African religions confront the students with the complex issues resulting from systematic neglect. This is by no means an easy task. It is my view that the best way to handle this matter is by raising first the question of what is involved in studying the religious life and thought of any people anywhere on earth including ourselves, and how such study reveals as much about the studier as the studied. In other words there should be no attempt to avoid reflecting on deep methodological and theoretical issues involved in the study of the religious life and thought of humankind. The concept of the "primitive" has a long and complicated history and. despite the heroic attempts of Africanists to reverse this trend, has become almost synonymous with the cultures of the indigenous peoples of Africa. It is therefore not good enough to simply engage in "description" ("phenomenological" or otherwise) of African life and thought, because even description involves a point of view. This requires the teacher to deal with the fundamental question of what is involved in interpretation and explanation of religious behavior. The goal here is to point to the desirability of explanatory theories and to show how various interpretive perspectives color them.

The paper offers a perspective on the effects that the slave trade and colonization has had on descendants from Africa . The Yoruba are one of the surviving indigenous traditions of Africa . The Yoruba ethnic group is examined and how the culture/religion persevered a traumatic history. Yoruba tradition and others are unique cultural/religious systems that maintained remnants and propagated rich and complex systems in the Americas . This paper discusses the effects of Christian influence on Africa and its descendants. Finally, I examine how the Yoruba are in the midst of a dramatic global resurgence.

Originally, I tried to keep everything based on geography. Thus, for example, the Maori were a subset under New Zealand. But they were the only subset (the mythology and sacred traditions of white New Zealanders are derived from Europe and I had no reason to give them their own section side by side with the Maori). As such examples grew, I realized that geographical categories were too awkward. So I decided to have a section called "Indigenous Peoples." I am aware that definitions of "indigenous" can be problematic and subject to hostile multi-cultural scrutiny. For the sake of simplicity, by "indigenous," I mean a still-surving people who were the original (or at least among the most ancient) inhabitants of a land before those lands were turned into colonies by peoples of another culture who invariably considered themselves "superior" to the "natives." By "indigenous," I also mean a people who still maintain some contact with their ancient ways, ceremonies, beliefs, arts, ways of healing, birthing, dying. Finally, by "indigenous," I mean a people who have generally been marginalized and oppressed by the newcomers, but who, despite this, sustain a larger visionary sense of their own worth in the web of life.

Friday, January 24, 2003 ::Jump to Footnotes:: Preliminary statements on the Yoruba The Yoruba as an ethnic and cultural group is one of the most researched ethnic groups in the world. By 1976, the available literature on the Yoruba, despite many omissions, numbered 3,488 items, an unrivalled feat in sub-Saharan Africa. A Yoruba civilization with a set of ideas, values, practices, philosophical thought, beliefs, traditions, institutions, material goods and technologies is well established and never in doubt. Concrete historical realities show that the Yoruba possess a rich civilization that is comparable with other civilizations of the world. The major aspects of this culture are expressed in visible attributes and in sublime values. The material culture is exhibited in commerce, manufacturing technology, arts and crafts and of course music and dance. Yoruba values are best seen in respect for elders and constituted authorities, honesty, integrity, diligence and a profound religious belief system.
