Book excerpt: This book describes the other side of the vilified and untold story of the Garinagu people and highlights the peculiarity of its historical codes.The author poses a problem of analysis for the nature of colonial ideas that were founded on the project of constructing visions and realities about the world and the historical, social, political and economic decisions and cultural changes.Starting from the idea that the construction of historical reality, as well as the hierarchies of peoples formed during several centuries of colonial expansion, was significantly transformed through a transition from modern colonialism to global colonialism, a process that certainly generated in the population, think from the platforms of colonial ideas.It also sets out the colonial view of the world which obeys an anthropological and axiological epistemological conception to defining the reality imposed on others so called inferiors. That is to say to undertake within it a process of unmarking the logics of the idea of colonialism that has been prevented by not saying the hidden existence of multiple forms of knowledge.At first moment, anthropologist Castillo Perez made a retrospective and anthropological analysis of the various theses of the origin of the Garinagu people, their revolutionary process, resistance and their anti-colonialist journey on the island of Saint Vincent.The colonial archives, recorded memory of the revolution and the resistance of the Garinagu people on the island of Saint Vincent, is why this work has been framed in the formulation of questions to search and consult unpublished archives, including newspapers of the chroniclers related to the subject of colonization, the slave trade, as well as the political decisions implanted by the British, Spanish and French empires during the conquest of the Caribbean between the 16th and 18th centuries.This book, "The Insurrectional Resistance of the Garifuna Revolution" by anthropologist Andoni Castillo Perez, brings other glances in the comparison of our races. As well as new discussions and a paradigm shift about the history of the Garifuna, through bibliographical research in England, France, and consultation of some archive of Saint Vincent and Timbuktu Mali. Also included are archival inquiries from the 16th and 17th centuries of the English and French, a categorization of data was made, allowing the comparison of information found between the chronicles of the British, the French and the African expedition to the Americas.The English and the French had a closer relationship with the Garinagu people during their revolution, where they fought battles, many of which were recorded by the chroniclers of that time and described in this book.
