Dear naclistas,
Welcome to another Friday edition of the NACLA newsletter and this week's roundup of web articles on nacla.org. Below is our Photo of the Week, which is courtesy of Tania Camila Bonilla, a historian and anthropologust that has worked in deep Colombia since 2010 with groups of Indigenous women, women peasants, and Afro-Colombian women in the middle of the armed conflict between varios guerrillas, the army, the national police, and paramilitary groups. She can be contacted via Facebook under her name and via Instagram under the username tataniabonilla.
Continue scrolling below to see the latest articles on nacla.org.
Please note: the deadline to submit a photo for our next newsletter will be Wednesday, June 3rd. Remember to use the subject line 'NACLA Photo of the Week.' We also ask that submissions include a caption (50 words or less) and a short bio (50 words or less) to info@nacla.org, along with links to social media handles and/or your personal website.
