Embodied Politics

Indigenous Migrant Activism, Cultural Competency, and Health Promotion in California

Beschreibung

Arguing for a structurally competent approach to migrant health, Embodied Politics shows how efforts to promote indigenous health may actually reinforce the same social and political economic forces, namely structural racism and neoliberalism, that are undermining the health of indigenous Oaxacans in Mexico and the United States.
