This collection consists of photos taken by MCC staff and sent to the partner agencies for publicity purposes. The photos would then appear in publications such as the Mennonitische Rundschau or the MB Herald.
Photos of Indigenous people in the Yalva Sanga settlement, Paraguay. The first twelve photos (not uploaded) were taken by Nancy Flowers and are credited to the Standard Oil Company.
Photos of Indigenous Ayoreo people in the Paraguayan Chaco and of Mennonites interacting with them. The folder also includes a photo of Catholics with Ayoreo children. Notes: Our historic documents refer to these subjects as "Moro Indians," a loaded and outdated term. The history between Mennonites and Indigenous peoples includes serious injustices.
