@anticonquista: 🔴 The Sterilization of Puerto Rican Women by the U.S. government. 🔵 Note: The same thing was done to Native women in the U.S. including Mexicanas and Chicanas. Sterilization was legalized in Puerto Rico in 1937 under Law 116, which established Eugenics Boards. 1/5

In the presence of this much proof and so much solid evidence in regard to the female nature of the creation process in Taino tradition, it is illogical to hear so many modern-day Taino who nowadays refer to a “Creator” with an obvious male meaning attached to the word.  And they also use the word “God” when referring to Yaya, the Supreme Being of the Taino tradition, as if Yaya were some Christian-style “God the Father.”  Many also insist on identifying Yaya with Yucahu (the male spirit) as if they were one and the same person.  This is ridiculous.  At no point in the writings of Pane or Las Casas or Anghiera can you find any direct relationship between Yucahu and Yaya.  These are two distinct and different identities who should not be confused with one another.  Yaya is a [bi-sexual] being that contains both sexes.  We should not refer to Yaya using the male pronoun “he,” since Yaya is not exclusively male.  Yaya is male and female at the same time. The insistence of many Taino of this era referring to Yucahu as a “creator” and confusing Yucahu with Yaya, who is, in fact, a [bi-sexual] spirit, is due to the phenomenon of the colonized mind, which persists in continuing old habits and beliefs imposed on our people by Christians.  Even many who are supposedly “defending” our culture from Christian influence do not realize that much of what they themselves accept, including the stuff about “God the Father” and a “creator God” as if it were Taino doctrine, in reality, is the Catholic doctrine of Rome.  Our ancestors never believed in a creator “God the Father.”  This was a foreign doctrine that evolved in the Middle East in Israel and Palestine.  It is what inspired Christian tradition and has absolutely nothing to do with us. Let's start by discontinuing the familiar term "The Creator" which implies a male meaning. There is no male creator in Taino tradition. The ancient Taino never believed in a "creator" like that one. Enough already of this Eurocentric concept. That is what defending our culture really is! Creation is a female process, with the assistance of the male forces of the Universe. In the Indigenous mind of the Tainos it is Atabey's womb, and not Yocahu's hand from whence the Cosmos originates. Let's accept that fact and let's truly honor our ancestors.
