In this photo taken Aug. 12, 2009, an Awajun village is seen along the Maranon river in the Peruvian state of Amazonas. Throughout Latin America, native languages are disappearing and Indians are under intense pressure to speak Spanish. At the same time, Indians have little access to post-secondary education. They are ill-prepared by substandard schools, afflicted by high dropout rates and usually short on financial help.
