About the book
What if what began in Gunayala in February 1925 never really ended?
A century ago, the Gunadule people rose up to defend their molas, their language, their authorities and their territory. Official history called it a “revolution” or a “rebellion.” Gunadule grandmothers and grandfathers name it bila: the duty to care for and defend Mother Earth.
Written by Gunadule and non-Gunadule scholars, the book moves from the origin stories that sustain bila to the struggles of today: the sea rising over the islands, the women who sustain autonomy from a shared placenta, and the Central American states that keep cutting back Indigenous rights. It includes a prologue by Abadio Green Stocel and seven chapters. Published in Spanish.
An outcome of the Emancipatory Horizons project and of the 2025 dialogues in Gunayala, including the Muubilli Regional Seminar. Co-published by 91ÑÇɫ and OPINUP.
