More Indigenous Than We Admit
Rethinking Encounters, Histories, and the Politics of Indigeneity
𝘔𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘞𝘦 𝘈𝘥𝘮𝘪𝘵 by Stephen B. Acabado and Marlon M. Martin explores the layered and often contested concept of Indigeneity within the Philippines as a nation shaped by centuries of cultural entanglements and colonial legacies.
Challenging prevailing assumptions that often fail to reflect the lived realities and self-perceptions of Indigenous peoples, this book examines how Indigeneity exists at the crossroads of history, politics, and cultural expression. Indigenous identity is shaped not only by internal factors within communities but also through external forces—colonial classifications, state-imposed definitions, and global discourses on identity and rights—highlighting the contextual, fluid, and dynamic nature of Indigeneity itself.
This diverse collection of scholarly essays, case studies, and personal reflections urges the reader to delve beyond the surface toward a more nuanced understanding of Indigenous agency and lived experiences and an active engagement with Indigenous voices. Stories of struggle, resilience, and victory serve to complicate simplistic narratives and reframe how concepts of identity and resistance have evolved within a rapidly changing world.
