Maya Project Videos

 

The Maya Heritage Community Project began in 2001, created by university faculty and students, and people of Maya heritage who live in the United States. Our statement of purpose is to remember the 80 million people who lived in the Americas before the two worlds were combined. Millions have come to the Americas in the last 500 years, some came forced into slave labor, others came seeking better opportunities.

  • “The Maya Quest for Survival through Immigration to the United States” by Alan LeBaron

    “The Maya Quest for Survival through Immigration to the United States”

    Alan LeBaron

    Alan Lebaron, Director of the Kennesaw State University Maya Heritage Community Project, and James Loucky, Professor of Anthropology, WWU, speaking at Fairhaven College on March 2, 2011.

    Approximately 500,000 Maya Native Americans escaped war, violence, and poverty by crossing borders, bringing their long history to blend within the 21st century United States. Success for the Maya refugees remains uncertain, but we can learn much from their strength of community and their deep culture. This talk highlights lessons derived from a decade of work in Georgia and with the Pastoral Maya national organization. He also addresses critical prospective challenges through dialog with James Loucky, who draws on his own longstanding relationships with Maya communities.
