The Mazahua Language

Introduction:

One of the great honors I have had working in Mexico has been through Vicente Guerrero and Atlacomulco High School. In this school and community, you will find the Mazahua people who maintain their rich and vibrant culture throughout the State of Mexico (Mexican State).

Uno de los grandes honores que tuvo en México es a través de la secundaria, Vicente Guerrero y Atlacomulco. En esta escuela y comunidad, hay una rica y vibrante comunidad de Mazahua. Quiénes mantienen su cultura y lengua por diversas partes del Estado de México.   

What community need did I learn about?:

In the past few months, I have learned about the need to preserve the  Mazahua culture and language. The Mazahua community has unique food, dances and language that connect the Mazahua to their land and to Mexico itself. Every language and culture contains an incredible and countless wealth of knowledge.

Can you think of something in your culture, your home, or your family that is SUPER important to you?

En estos pocos meses, aprendí sobre la necesidad de preservar esta cultura y lengua en toda la región. La comunidad mazahua tiene sus comidas, bailes y lenguaje único que los conectan con la tierra y con México mismo. Cada idioma y cultura encierra una increíble e incontable riqueza de conocimientos.
