Personal life
Humala is the father of
Ollanta Humala, a leading candidate in the
2006 presidential election in
Peru. His wife's name is Elena. One of his other sons,
Antauro Humala, a former army major, ran a popular rebellion against the government's policy in the Andean city of Andahuayllas December
2004, in which a police station was seized and some people were killed. Humala said in a
television broadcast that he was proud of his son's actions and exhorted them not to give up until they achieve their objectives.
Humala is a self-proclaimed
subversive: "a
patriot has to be...
Christ was and so are we", he declared in an interview.
Beliefs
Humala's
Instituto de Estudios Etnogeopolticos (IEE) is the brain trust of the MPN, which he founded in
1989.
Humala is open about his race-conscious,
According to Humala: "the human species had four
races, of which one is practically separate, the white one that dominates the world, the yellow has two powers,
China and
Japan, and the Black, although without the same weight as the others, at least dominates its
own continent. On the other hand, ours doesn't govern anywhere."
2000 Election Controversy
Vargas Llosa, in a statement made
January 15,
2006 said, "Isaac Humala, father of two presidential candidates in next April's elections, one of whom is Lieutenant Colonel Ollanta, who has some possibility of being elected, has explained the organisation of Peruvian society according to race, which he'd like either of his sons to apply. Peru would be a country where only copper-skinned Andeans would have Peruvian nationality. The rest, white, black or yellow, would only be 'citizens' who would have a limited set of rights. If a
Latin American 'white' would have made such a proposal, he'd have been crucified, and rightly so, by universal outrage. But because the person making this proposal is supposedly Indian, his idea has been met with discreet irony or silent approval. I refer to Isaac Humala as supposedly Indian because this is what his fellow villagers have determined him to be in the small village in Ayacucho from where his family came from before going to
Lima. A sociologist recently went to the village to snoop around for Humala's
Andean roots and she discovered that the family was considered to be the local "mistis", that's to say the whites, because they'd property, cattle and were, and how could it be otherwise, exploiters of Indians.
During the Peruvian national election, 2006, Humala, father of candidates Ollanta and Ulises, said that he'd free Shining Path and MRTA leaders Abimael Guzmán and Víctor Polay, since he considers that terrorist movements no longer represent a threat to Peruvian society. This came after a letter was signed by several public figures, including Ulises and fellow candidates Javier Diez Canseco and Alberto Moreno, demanding a fair trial for Polay. Most candidates rushed to condemn Isaac Humala's comments -- including both Humala's sons.
