Between 8 Nov 2021 and July 2022 AL Jazeera published a serial of
articles (except one i.e. an Al Jazeera team)
all by the Cree-Iroquois Canadian-French journalist Brandi
Morin about femicides of Canadian Indigenous women and girls and
of Indigenous children who were abducted from their parents houses and
brought to residential schoolsof which each word is so
heartbreaking that it takes a lot of courage to read the whole serial. Still I challenge you to do so! I divided it according to the

<<Mexico's Indigenous rappers find rare spotlight - on Wakanda
soundtrack
The journey from a quiet Mexican village to being billed on the
soundtrack of an Oscar-nominated film has been an epic one for
Indigenous rapper Pat Boy. Born Jesus Pat Chable, Pat Boy grew up
speaking only Mayan until he started primary school; his parents still
speak no Spanish. And like many of Mexico's 23 million Indigenous
people, he has often encountered discrimination. <People would comment
on the videos or on the street, or when you're on stage,> said Pat Boy
in a phone interview. In a country where Indigenous cultures are often
revered in museums but otherwise disparaged, such attitudes are
widespread: according to a 2017 government survey, nearly a quarter of
Indigenous people over 12 said they had experienced discrimination in
the last five years. But now a new generation of musicians like Pat Boy
are using rap as a way of combatting prejudice, reviving ancient
languages that are in steady decline, and reigniting a sense of pride
among young people in being part of a centuries-old culture. <Through
music, I started researching more about the Maya, and I began to see
great things: philosophies, traditions, culture,> Pat Boy said. <I
wanted to share that information that I learned to new generations
through music.> Recently, Pat Boy's music, and Indigenous rap more
widely, have reached a global audience through the Marvel blockbuster
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The comic book movie, which features an
army of Mayan warriors, includes a number of contemporary Indigenous
rappers like Pat Boy on its soundtrack, as well as a title song by
Rihanna which received an Oscar nod this week. <We wanted to create a
complete immersive sound world where songs and scores are part of the
same DNA,> said Ludwig Goransson, the film's composer, who found Pat Boy
via an Instagram search. <It's just really cool to see something like
that,> said Göransson, <the Mayan sound, the Mayan language, or an
Indigenous rapper from Mexico, hearing that in the scale of this movie.>
But despite the American film's worldwide success, such a spotlight on
Indigenous culture remains rare: of the more than 250 films produced in
Mexico last year, not even 12% were centered on Indigenous or
Afro-Mexican characters and storylines.>>
