Land, Cultural Dispossession and Resistance: Afro-descendent and Indigenous Peoples in the Americas

This special double issue of the Journal of Poverty focuses on documenting the 21st-century consequences of the coloniality of power as it relates to, for example, extractivist and tourist industries, cultural, linguistic, and land dispossession, forced displacement and migration, climate, water and food injustice, cognitive injustice, and the environmental destruction of Afrodescendent and indigenous communities in the Americas. The contributors also describe in their analysis and discussion the various forms of resistance by these communities.
