SUMMARY:Taino Indigenous People & Art
DESCRIPTION:Following eye-opening genetic testing\, Rosa Vargas-Cronin 
 began a journey researching her African and Indigenous ancestry. Yearning 
 to acquire accurate information about the Taino indigenous people of the 
 Caribbean and the enslaved Africans shipped to the “Americas” motivated 
 her six-year investigation.\n\nAt this event\, Rosa will introduce you to 
 her ancestors\, the Taino people\, and how they continue to honor their 
 culture today. The Taíno are the indigenous people of the Caribbean 
 islands. They inhabited what are now Cuba\, Jamaica\, Haiti (Hispaniola)\, 
 Puerto Rico\, the Virgin Islands\, and Florida. Once the most numerous 
 indigenous people of the Caribbean\; the Taino numbered up to five million 
 in Hispaniola alone at the time of the Spanish colonization in the late 
 15th century.\n\nAttendees will also create a Taíno Sun petroglyph 
 (pictured here). The Sun petroglyph represents everything from the sun and 
 sky to the Taino cosmology.\n\n \n\nIf you need ASL (American Sign 
 Language) Interpreting\, please check the box on our registration form. 
 Given 48 hours notice\, we are able to provide ASL interpreting services 
 for our programs. Please contact Sarah Dennison 
 (sarah.dennison@libraryweb.org) for further information.
