St. Thomas
(UCTP Taino News) – Opia Taino and the United Confederation of Taino People (UCTP)
finalized a collaborative agreement linking their respective local and international
tribal registries. An indigenous organization
based in St. Thomas, Opia Taino will now commence its registry on the island
and other nearby islands such as St. Croix and Tortola.
The St.
Thomas Taino registry will connect directly with the UCTP’s Taino Population
Census and Inter-Tribal Registry. These programs are independent of State
government census or similar programs. Both registries are open to Taino,
Carib, and Arawak descendants. UCTP president, R. Mukaro Borrero and Opia Taino president Maekiaphan Phillips finalized
the agreement in a meeting last week in New York.
