Santos­Granero reconstructsthe life and poli"cal trajectory of thisleader whom the people calledTasorentsi, the name the Ashaninkagive to the world­transforming godsand divine emissaries that come tothis earth to aid the Ashaninka in"mes of crisis. Drawing on animmense body of original materialsranging from archival documents andoral histories to musical recordingsand visual works, Santos­Graneropresents an in­depth analysis of chiefTasorentsi’s poli"cal discourse andac"ons. He demonstrates that, despiteTasorentsi’s constant self­reinven"ons,the chief never forsook his millenarianbeliefs, an"­slavery discourse, orefforts to liberate his people fromwhite­mes"zo oppression. Slavery andUtopia thus convincingly refutes thosewho claim that the Ashaninkaproclivity to messianism is ananthropological inven"on.
