This paper draws from the insights of feminist political ecology and ethnographic fieldwork in the coastal Miskito communities of the Honduran Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve. In this paper, I highlight how Miskito matriarchal land organization is challenged by both the state and Miskito men. Through a reflection of multi-scaled narratives, I argue that Miskito women “work” to counter entrenched patriarchal assumptions and racialized state development practices that deny women's labor in agriculture and undermine their means “to mother.”
