Second Place Winner of the 2020 International Latino Book Award for
Best History Book Nacion Genizara examines the history, cultural
evolution, and survival of the Genizaro people. The contributors to
this volume cover topics including ethnogenesis, slavery,
settlements, poetics, religion, gender, family history, and mestizo
genetics. Fray Angelico ChAvez defined Genizaro as the ethnic term
given to indigenous people of mixed tribal origins living among the
Hispano population in Spanish fashion. They entered colonial
society as captives taken during wars with Utes, Apaches,
Comanches, Kiowas, Navajos, and Pawnees. Genizaros comprised a
third of the population by 1800. Many assimilated into Hispano and
Pueblo society, but others in the land-grant communities maintained
their identity through ritual, self-government, and kinship. Today
the persistence of Genizaro identity blurs the lines of distinction
between Native and Hispanic frameworks of race and cultural
affiliation. This is the first study to focus exclusively on the
detribalized Native experience of the Genizaro in New Mexico.
