More about Mexico City July 13, 2008

When we walked across the plaza there were some dancers setting up areas for displaying items that they had made. Many were in the process of making beautiful head dresses made of feathers. Others were playing instruments and performing native dances. There were a few signs that advertised limpias and several people in my group experienced it. This was demonstrating how an indigenous culture could be in a modern world and still stay true to its roots. I was also told that others had integrated more into society, in terms of maintaining a successful business, but still maintained a strong cultural identity in their dress and beliefs.
