Radio Tarahumara

Barranca del Batopilas.
I´m from Croatia ana I was there at 1987.
Wonderful people.

Estimada comunidad Tarahumaras,

Gente bonita de la Sierra, animo con estos fríos, vamos sacando la fuerza del corazón y afrontemos este clima con garra... bendiciones.

I am a student doing a study on the Raramuri/Tarahumara indigenous peoples of Chihuahua. I am hoping to find content and testimonies of the actual people. I want to hear their voice, what they have to say. Is there any information on where I can find something like this?

Enjoy this article and photographic slide show from the New York Times about the Raramuri.

Glad to see you are all enjoying the site and the music.

No idea is lost when one moves to be apart of the EARTH.

IT is carried on by those who were inspired.

I have always been inspired to live with NATURE.

Greetings!

I have been contacted by student Arthur Cortez with a number of questions about Raramuri Culture. I only run the machines that keep this site running, so I don't feel qualified to answer his questions, but I thought the Radio Tarahumara community might be able to help him out.

His questions were regarding:

• Geographic location
• Traditional clothing
• Traditional food
• Raramuri music
• Interesting facts or cultural practices
• Traditional stories and cultural mythos (creation stories, etc)
