| | Chapter 22: AMERINDIAN POLICIES |
 | | Some Amerindian villages did not apply for land titles they were entitled to according to the Amerindian Lands Commission Report, simply because they did not know it was an option available to them. | | | The 1987 GUYREDEM survey found that Amerindian birth rates were the highest of all ethnic groups. | | | Revenues from fines will be used for the benefit of the Amerindian community whose rules were violated and in a manner approved by the local Council. |

| | Following reports and initial investigations into specific cases, an Amerindian Parliamentarian asked the Government to further investigate the level of exploitation of Amerindian women who seek employment outside their communities. | | | AMERINDIAN women are at the critical turning point in their history. | | | Among these is the problem of cervical cancer which is difficult to deal with at the community level because of the lack of necessary facilities and expertise. |

| | In 1990 there were reported to be extensive camps of miners in these areas, dominated numerically by coastal Guyanese but also including significant numbers of Amerindian people. | | | Amerindians comprise around 75% of these people, and the vast majority of trappers are Amerindian men, who may operate individually or as part of a village cooperative [Edwards 1992: 82-83]. | | | This is despite the extent of cross-border migration; Amerindian people are not legally committed to observe national boundaries where these cut across tribal lands, and there has historically been a great deal of movement, often in response to relative living standards [Hemming 1995: 45]. |

| | Website Awards by the Caribbean Amerindian Centrelink |
| | This site has been linked to from a wide array of other Websites across the Internet and is still one of the most heavily visited sites focusing on Caribbean Amerindian issues. | | | Sites that outline the history of a particular group, community or people, and where the visitor can get a clear sense of what it is they are looking at and what it means, are especially favoured. | | | In other words, the content cannot be like that of any kind of formal organization nor be about large groups of either related or fictive kin. |

| | Amerindian Women |
| | In fact, of 107 students surveyed, 102 believed that women in Amerindian societies held an inferior position. | | | However, in conducting a survey I have found this phenomena to still be with us. | | | This information has been available since 1590 and readily available in libraries since the 1950?s. |

| | Amerindian Literature / Native American Literature |
| | Without citing further evidence it is clear the Lenape account is an actual event and thus justifies it’s place as historical oral tradition. | | | This is because there is little or no fantasy involved, but rather the account is considered a non-legendary account of the peoples past. | | | This is not to say these works are removed from the study of Amerindian literature. |

| | A Plain English Guide To the Amerindian Act |
| | The APA has consistently been calling on the government to revise the Act. | | | When the Amerindian is before the Council, it can start an investigation of the alleged violation, and if the Council decides that the person is guilty, it can fine the person $20. | | | Therefore, we believe that is not only appropriate that a revised Amerindian Act be based on international human rights law, but that the government is required to do this. |

| | Quitirrisi was not organized as an Amerindian reservation until 1976, and many Huetar families did not know of their Amerindian origin before this time. | | | Consequently, these Amerindian populations are influenced by environmental conditions only rarely and therefore could preserve their traditional manner of living with special regard to medicine, religion, social structures, etc. The social relationships not only of the Bribri but also of the Cabecar are organized matrilineally, and descendants can be traced through the maternal line. | | | Meanwhile, some of the Huetar have mixed with different ethnic groups, but one can still find families that show pure Amerindian serogenetic features. |
