The thesis of the present document turns around the recognition of which is contained in the expression of the Indigenous Minga and its mandates as a sociocultural and political phenomenon carrier of events, speeches and symbolic content which shape their collective action as a place of resistance. The approach in which this essay is interested is the center itself of the overt act and the spoken word, understanding the collective action as affirmative and social relations and interactions. In its aim of understanding rather than explaining, the document begins by acknowledging a historical precedent that has marked these processes of indigenous resistance in the north of Cauca in Colombia. Then a previous concept is outlined in order to develop intended ideas to get into indigenous communities through their actions and words, showing how their own reality may be touched, felt and breathed. The comprehensive exercise is based on an analysis of indigenous discourse about their mandates, to show through them indigenous social movements have meant a search for the collective world and so an assertion as the people and its organization.
