** We Have Always Been Here: Decolonizing Gender
------------------------------------------------------------
Cultural Survival focuses on Indigenous Peoples in their totality. We understand that colonization has twisted our collective worldview, and as a result, we live today in a world where gender relationships are out of balance. Much of the violence and inequities have been caused by a disruption in the continuity of ancestral values and traditions that held together the cohesiveness of communities. Indigenous Peoples’ views and understandings of gender are just as diverse as their cultures. However, imposed patriarchy and Christianity vilified Queerness in our communities, making it a threat to be eradicated. There is also a fundamental difference between Indigenous Peoples’ approaches to issues of gender equity and that of Western societies. While Western societies glorify the individual, Indigenous Peoples prioritize the communal, we believe that within this sense of community, Indigenous Peoples can best develop the tools needed to assert their rights and achieve gender equity.
The latest issue of the Cultural Survival Quarterly ([link removed]) is dedicated to uplifting our relatives of other genders and those who identify as non-binary. In many pre-colonial Indigenous societies, there were multiple recognized genders, and those folks held different revered roles. Colonialism, Christianity, and the patriarchy forced many of these identities into hiding. We share with you a few stories of decolonization from the viewpoints of some who are unearthing some of this buried or interrupted knowledge, how they are reclaiming and finding meaning in those identities, and the challenges they are facing.

** Siempre hemos estado aquí: Descolonizando el género
------------------------------------------------------------
Cultural Survival se enfoca en los Pueblos Indígenas en su totalidad. Entendemos que la colonización ha desviado nuestra cosmovisión colectiva y como resultado, vivimos hoy en un mundo donde las relaciones de género están fuera de equilibrio. Gran parte de la violencia y las desigualdades han sido causadas por una interrupción en la continuidad de los valores y tradiciones ancestrales que mantenían unidas la cohesión de las comunidades. Los puntos de vista y la comprensión de género de los Pueblos Indígenas son tan diversos como sus culturas. Sin embargo, el patriarcado impuesto y el cristianismo denigraron los géneros y las preferencias sexuales diferentes en nuestras comunidades, convirtiéndolos en una amenaza a ser erradicada. También existe una diferencia fundamental entre los enfoques de los Pueblos Indígenas sobre cuestiones de equidad de género y el de las sociedades occidentales. Mientras que las sociedades occidentales glorifican al individuo, los Pueblos Indígenas dan prioridad a
lo comunal. Creemos que dentro de este sentido de comunidad, los Pueblos Indígenas pueden desarrollar mejor las herramientas necesarias para hacer valer sus derechos y lograr la equidad de género.
El último número de Cultural Survival Quarterly está dedicado a animar a nuestros familiares de otros géneros y a aquellos que se identifican como no binarios. En muchas sociedades Indígenas precoloniales, existían múltiples géneros reconocidos, y esas personas tenían diferentes roles venerados. El colonialismo, el cristianismo y el patriarcado obligaron a muchas de estas identidades a ocultarse. Compartimos con ustedes algunas historias de descolonización desde los puntos de vista de algunos que están desenterrando parte de este conocimiento enterrado o interrumpido, cómo están reclamando y encontrando significado en esas identidades y los desafíos que enfrentan.
