Additional information

by Juan Duchesne Winter (Editor)

The purpose of this book is to provide brief information about what the islands of Providencia and San Andrés were in the past, and in contrast, what they are today, and the context of the settlers throughout the centuries. The motivation of this work, fundamentally, is to show the discrimination and the constant suffering of the natives of these islands. This book does not record the complete historical events since the so-called discovery; however, it contains a summary of the first inhabitants of the islands, their activities and submission to various authorities at different times, the preservation of their traditions in the midst of their difficulties to survive, and the development of a culture imposed with the help of religion and language since 1926. Another additional purpose is to raise awareness among the natives of the Providencia and San Andrés Archipelago about their history and about the abuses committed against them by the Colombian government for more than a century.

El propósito de este libro es proporcionar una información breve sobre lo que fueron en el pasado las islas de Providencia y San Andrés, y en contraste, lo que son hoy, y el contexto de los pobladores a lo largo de los siglos. La motivación de este trabajo, fundamentalmente, es mostrar la discriminación y el sufrimiento consstante de los nativos de estas islas. Este libro no registra los eventos históricos completos desde el llamado descubrimiento; sin embargo, contiene un resumen sobre los primeros habitantes de las islas, sus actividades y sumisión a diversas autoridades en distintas épocas, la conservación de sus tradiciones en medio de sus dificultades para sobrevivir y el desarrollo de una cultura impuesta con ayuda de la religión y la lengua desde 1926. Otro propósito adicional es desarrollar la conciencia en los nativos del Archipiélago de Providencia y San Andrés sobre su historia y sobre los abusos cometidos contra ellos por el gobierno colombiano durante más de un siglo.
