Indigeneity in New Spain
-
In reading Cook's work, I was especially interested in the role of the Indigenous witnesses in the accusations against Moriscos. I wonder if these individuals benefitted in some way from giving these testimonies, or if those testifying against Spanish Catholics would have faced any repercussions. I also wonder if there was more to the relationship between persecuted Moriscos and the Indigenous community in a similar way that marginalized groups tend to feel solidarity with one another in the postcolonial present.
