 In either case, this type of indigenismo seeks to vindicate indigenous cultural and linguistic difference, assert indigenous rights, and seek recognition and in some cases compensation for past wrongdoings of the colonial and republican states.Unlike Hispanismo that includes the indigenous cultures as part of the Hispanic culture, indigenismo doesn't recognize the Hispanic at all, and even rejects mestizaje, which comprises the largest population in the continent.Nevertheless, some historical figures like José Martí are classified as having been both indigenistas and hispanistas.
