Indigenous Latin Americans take main stage

Lately, there has been an increase in the amount of publicity the indigenous Latin American have received. In Peru, a presidential candidate in a Inca warrior garb and won the primary round of presidential voting. In Bolivia, flags celebrating indigenous culture are becoming more popular than the national flag. Indigenous populations are uniting across Latin America, and demanding representation in their respective regions. It is refreshing to hear of such news,indigenous people of Latin America are taking a stand and remaining close knit.
