The Prophecy of the Condor and the Eagle says that after 500 years of darkness, all the people of the Americas will come together and fly in the same sky. In this session we will share a new crowdsourced project that aims to translate old and rare books of stories, legends, and poetry from the native american peoples into Spanish. This project will create an online bibliographic collection which will help connect the stories of the indigenous peoples of the Americas.
