Autonomy

Since the colonial period, the Atlantic Coast has been mired in conflict due to incursions by the Spanish Crown, the Nicaraguan government and the United States. Today, huge waves of mestizo migration are threatening the Afro-descendent and Indigenous way of life. AUTONOMY explores the people of the Caribbean Coasts’ struggle to assert their rights, govern themselves and preserve their cultural traditions and languages.

TWN acknowledges that in New York we are on the unceded territory of the Lenni Lenape, Canarsie, Shinecock, and Munsee peoples and challenges the harm that continues to be inflicted upon Indigenous and People of Color communities here and abroad, which is why we all need to be part of the struggle for rights, equality and justice.
