The population is thought to have plummeted during the 19th and 20th centuries as members retreated deeper into the #rainforest to escape the #rubberboom and the #enslavers who drove it.
By 1959, when #American #missionaries convinced the Iskonawa to settle in a village where they could be #evangelized, there were around 100 left.

A great talk about discovering the slave-holders and the enslaved in your ancestry. I am Southern through and through and have ancestors from every southern state. I have run across many slave-holders in my ancestry and have been struggling with how to mark them and what to do with them. I have also wanted to do something about the genealogy of those enslaved by my ancestors.

@legalgenealogist Wow, thanks for the resource. I have been struggling with how to handle all of my enslaver ancestors (I am thoroughly Southern so lots of different family lines had enslaved people). I have wanted to put some noticeable marker on those folks rather than using a picture or some other non-descript avatar but haven't yet settled on what to do.

In an even more wide-ranging revelation of problematic tributes on government property:
"As part of a year-long investigation into #Congress’s relationship with #slavery, The Washington Post analyzed more than 400 artworks in the U.S. Capitol building, from the Crypt to the ceiling of the #Capitol Rotunda, and found that one-third honor #enslavers or #Confederates. Another six honor possible enslavers — people whose slaveholding status is in dispute"

#Congress is so broken it can’t even remove artwork that honors #enslavers and #confederates. And shame on Rep. James Clyburn, one of the most senior African-Americans in Congress, for not even responding to a request to comment on this article.
