Travelling through the Australian continent, one is often appalled by the living conditions of the Aborigine people. Having lost touch with their culture and traditions, many of them have become outcasts or alcoholics who aimlessly wander the streets of the Australian cities. From the early 1800s to the late 1960s, Aborigines were gradually deprived of their land by the white man who used it for herding, cropping, and mineral extraction. Forced to leave their homelands, Aborigines were often separated from their children, who were sent to live with white families or to boarding schools, in an attempt to teach them the white man’s values. Today 390,000 Aborigines account for less than 3% of the current Australian population. Learn how they are beginning to find their place in a society which has excluded them for so long. Meet and share the life of Aborigines who through art, dancing, hunting, work, or spirituality, are finding ways to better their future.

El Ciclo de Conferencias de Estudios africanos y de la Diáspora Africana [CEADA] invitan a la conferencia “Los grandes retos que debe resolver el pueblo Afrocolombiano” presentada por José Eulícer Mosquera Rentería.



Al estudiar las causas de la problemática de los Afrocolombianos, encontramos que básicamente está determinada por una dinámica que ha prevalecido en la sociedad colombiana, desde la colonia hasta nuestros días, mediante la cual, producen capital para otros y no les permite producir capital para sí mismos, manteniendo a estas comunidades en un proceso de descapitalización permanente y en los límites de la marginalidad social. Lo que preocupa no solo es la pobreza marginal del pueblo afrocolombiano, y la discriminación a que son sometidas sus gentes, la cual no sólo se manifiesta en actitudes de las mayorías de las otras etnias o grupos sociales blanco - mestizos colombianos, sino, además en las escasas y restringidas posibilidades ofrecidas tanto por el Estado, como por la empresa privada; esto aun cuando han pasado más de dos siglos de ruptura con la colonia y de nacimiento de la República.

De manera documentada, desde la trata de personas y su esclavización hasta la colonia, desde las campañas independentistas hasta la formación de la República, desde los albores de la República hasta la situación contemporánea del estado colombiano. José Eulicer se embarca en un diagnóstico y nos cuenta sobre los grandes desafíos que debe resolver el pueblo afrocolombiano.

José Eulícer Mosquera Rentería, es un docente-investigador en las áreas de ciencias sociales, economía y filosofía, con más de 30 años de experiencia, con entidades estatales, privadas y ONGs. Es director del Centro de Estudios e Investigaciones Sociales Afrocolombianas, CEISAFROCOL, desde 1988.

“The great challenges that the Afro-Colombian people must solve” presented by José Eulícer Mosquera Rentería.
When studying the causes of Afro-Colombians' problem(s), we find that it is basically determined by a dynamic that has prevailed in Colombian society, from the colony to the present, through which they produce capital for others but do not allow them to produce capital for themselves, keeping these communities in a process of permanent decapitalization and the limits of social marginalization. What is worrying is not only the extreme poverty of Afro-Colombians and the discrimination to which their peoples are subjected, which is not only manifested in the attitudes of other ethnic groups or social groups such as whites and mestizos but also the scarce and restricted possibilities offered by both the State and the private sector; even when more than two centuries have passed since the break-up with the Spanish Empire and the birth of the Republic.
Documenting, from the trafficking of persons and enslavement to the colony, from the independence campaigns to the formation of the Republic, from the dawn of the Republic to the contemporary situation of the Colombian state. José Eulicer embarks on a diagnosis and tells us about the great challenges that the Afro-Colombian people must solve.
