Description: This image depicts a young indigenous man physically abusing his father with a stick. He is standing on the right side of the image as he puts his right foot on his father’s stomach and beats him with the stick in his hands. The father is holding up his left hand to try and stop his son from hitting him. There is a house in the background of the image. There is a caption written on the house that reads, uanoy, macho [Die old man!], and diosrayco, ama macho yayayquita macauaycho justiciaman uillasac diosta manchay [For God’s sake, do not hit me, your old father, I will accuse you for justice, fear God]. The author criticizes young indigenous people who would abandon God and not follow the commandments of the Lord.
