Jason Palmer draws on eight years of fieldwork to provide an on-the-ground look at the relationship between Peruvian Saints and the racial and gender complexities of the contemporary Church.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeruvian Saints discovered that the foundational ideas of kinship and religion ceased being distinct categories in their faith. At the same time, they came to see that LDS rituals and reenactments placed coloniality in opposition to the Peruvians' indigenous roots and family against the more expansive Peruvian idea of \u003ci\u003efamilia\u003c\/i\u003e. In part one, Palmer explores how Peruvian Saints resolved the first clash by creating the idea of a new pioneer indigeneity that rejected victimhood in favor of subtle engagements with power. Part two illuminates the work performed by Peruvian Saints as they stretched the Anglo Church's model of the nuclear family to encompass \u003ci\u003efamilia\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jason Palmer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 025208795X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780252087950\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Illinois Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 342\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Jason Palmer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46431479726335,"sku":"9780252087950","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b1562e9b-968e-47d1-a27b-54c85c03531c.jpg?v=1735141462","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/forever-familias-jason-palmer-9780252087950","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
