In this episode, Giovanni Batz — an Indigenous researcher, the son of Guatemalan working class parents, and the paternal grandson of K’iche’ Maya — talks about the history and struggle for Indigenous autonomy in the Ixil Region of Gutemala. His research interests include extractivist industries and megaprojects in Latin America, Guatemalan-Maya migration, displacement and diaspora, indigenous social movements, and human rights. He is working on a book project entitled “The Fourth Invasion: Ixil-Maya Resistance to Megaprojects and the Struggle for Autonomy in Guatemala,” based on research conducted in Cotzal, Guatemala since 2011. Batz has also worked with Guatemalan-Maya youth in Los Angeles and conducted research on the migration of K’iche’-Maya from Almolonga, Quetzaltenango.

The Four Invasions of Guatemala and Indigenous Resistance with Giovanni Batz — November 1, 2018

In this episode, Yvonne Swan speaks about gender violence and Indigenous resistance.

In 1972, Yvonne Wanrow (now Yvonne Swan) shot a man who had tried to molest her son and neighbor’s son in Spokane, Washington. Her case became a rallying cry for Indigenous and feminist activists in the 1970s to highlight the intersections of colonialism, gender violence, and the injustices of the U.S. criminal system. The ensuing legal battle resulted in a landmark decision allowing for self-defense for survivors of domestic violence and marked the first time US courts acknowledged “the particular legal problems of women who defend themselves or their male children from male violence.” In this talk, Yvonne discusses the case and its legacy for Indigenous and her current work and advocacy.

A citizen of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian Reservation, Yvonne Swan is a longtime activist of the American Indian Movement.

Special thanks to Dan Berger for putting this talk together and the Simpson Center at the University of Washington for hosting.

Gender Violence and Indigenous Resistance with Yvonne Swan

Charting passages through cycles of death and rebirth, hibernation and transformation, @MOB-BOUNCE’s new EP, Transformation, is a powerful story of reawakening, re-emergence, and redemption—of finding your strength and coming into your power. From the subterranean world of Journey to the Cave and the grimy, hip-hop stomp of Keys to the Forest, through the breezy trap-ballad Love is Giant, the album rises into the party-rockin reggaeton vibes of Sounds of You, and the soaring, epic album closer Gather Your Feathers. Transformation is a powerful journey from darkness to renewal, from introspection to expansion.

Transformation is the debut studio project from MOB BOUNCE and it elevates their sound to new heights. Featuring production from Anishinaabe beatmaker and DJ @BoogeytheBeat (Sebastian Gaskin, Snotty Nose Rez Kids), live drums by Kenton Loewen (Peregrine Falls, Dan Mangan), engineered and mixed by Alex Penney (Jay Rock), and mastered by Dan Weston (A Tribe Called Red, Jeremy Dutcher, Haviah Mighty), Transformation mixes analog and digital sounds to stunning effect, creating a hip-hop sonic world that is hypnotic, immersive, and fully their own. 

The album’s cover artwork is a beautiful transformation mask created by Heiltsuk artist Dean Hunt and Wuikinuxv and Klahoose artist Bracken Hanuse Corlett. Transformation masks mark transitions between forms—from human to spirit, animal to human, and the spaces in between. 

MOB BOUNCE channel that power through their music, transforming hip-hop into a force of spirit. 

“Mob Bounce is a gateway to a higher level of lyricism” - The Georgia Straight  

Transformation is out August 16, 2019 on RPM Records—the world’s first Indigenous owned and operated label for genre-crossing contemporary Indigenous music.
