By examining historical records and drawing on oral histories and
the work of anthropologists, archaeologists, ecologists, and
psychologists, We Are Not Animals sets out to answer questions
regarding who the Indigenous people in the Santa Cruz region were
and how they survived through the nineteenth century. Between 1770
and 1900 the linguistically and culturally diverse Ohlone and
Yokuts tribes adapted to and expressed themselves politically and
culturally through three distinct colonial encounters with Spain,
Mexico, and the United States. In We Are Not Animals Martin
Rizzo-Martinez traces tribal, familial, and kinship networks
through the missions' chancery registry records to reveal stories
of individuals and families and shows how ethnic and tribal
differences and politics shaped strategies of survival within the
diverse population that came to live at Mission Santa Cruz. We Are
Not Animals illuminates the stories of Indigenous individuals and
families to reveal how Indigenous politics informed each of their
choices within a context of immense loss and violent disruption.
