Tlazocamati! This is one of the greatest vids I've seen on YT! I keep looking for sources of info to learn more Nahuatl, but they're not easy to find, & most are not more than 500, or so, words with definitions, & without grammar. Can anyone guide me to more in-depth sources on Nahuatl, please?

[AnahuacWomenFight]

Tlazocamati to you for your appreciation. As far as Nahuatl, if you live in the La area, Fermin Herrera teaches Nahuatl 1 and 2 at Cal state Northridge. He gives great handouts on the general info. on Nahuatl, especially the pronunciation.

You can also look into:

Nahuatl As Written by James Lockheart: it is a book filled with lessons and examples, primarily Classical Nahuatl.

Hope it helps.

Vale estas luchando por tu gente, me parece muy bien. Pero no mencionas nunca a sudamerica, solo a centroamerica. Es que no te importa Colombia, Venezuela, Perú.. ni tampoco mencionas el caribe.

Don't forget, I am not Hispanic I am Indigenous! Also, what about "I am RED and I am YELLOW!"? Yea, Not American, not Hispanic, not Latino, but INDIGENOUS. Unfortunately, because of "mestizaje", and modernization most of us cannot truly retrace our ancestry back to the tribe we come from. Many claim Mexica ("Aztec"), but remember, there are other tribes too in what is today "Mexico" (including the Maya, Zapotec, Olmec, Huichol, Purepecha, Otomi, Yaqui, Tzotzil, Totonac, Mixtec, Huastec, etc.).

Love to hear stuff like this.

White people, stop calling me hispanic,latina,spic,mojada.

Now i know I am from here, this is my land. No matter what you say you won't get me down, I stand in my land. My trees, my air to breath, my wind to feel, my soil to touch. these is my land. stop trying to make me feel like an outsider. THIS IS MY LAND. ESTA ES MI TIERA.

they might not be your heroes, but you don't know about other people' point of view.

[MEXIKAYOTL2012]

because INVADERS...came from europe and Murdered the indigenous natives from north and south america! They came to do just that....MURDER.....in the name of their god and gold!!!

I don't get it. Why do people keep calling this continent stolen?

[IAmGodToYouDirtyRats]

I personally don't like those 2 and I think this kind of poems are always going to be open for interpretation. I don't think she was trying to portrait them as heroes. I think she was trying to say they both have admirable qualities that a revolutionary has to admire, so she use them as examples because everyone knows who they are and what they are all about...

[jarelys4175]

INSPIRING!

i just disagree when you mentioned evo morales and hugo chavez. they aren't heroes at all. this word is way to big to describes these... men.
