This story is a tale of identity and the constant struggle of an indigenous population – the Taíno – to remain who they always were, before being “discovered”, colonized, and even convinced to accept what they live today. We do not have all the information about what happened, and what we do have, we are not sure is completely true. It has been over five hundred years since the arrival of the Spaniards and over a hundred since the Americans arrived on Puerto Rican soil, but the question remains the same, and in this book it is presented through the voice of a Taíno Indian: “My name is Kachi and Borikén is my land. And you, who are you and what are you doing here?”
Kachi is an inspiring odyssey that intertwines history, culture, and the human experience, inviting readers to embark on a profound exploration of the rich tapestry of Latin American heritage.
