The Raraamuri people of Chihuahua, Mexico, make up one of the largest Indigenous tribes of North America. Renowned for maintaining their language and cultural traditions in the face of colonization, they have weathered numerous hardships-climate disaster, poverty, cultural erasure-that have only worsened during the twenty-first century. Based on more than a decade of oral history and participatory field work, Out of the Sierra paints a vivid and vital portrait of Raraamuri displacement. When drought leaves the Gutiaerrez family with nothing to eat, they are faced with the choice many Raraamuris must make: remain and hope for rain and aid, or leave their sacred homeland behind. Luis, Martina, and their children choose to journey from their home in the Sierra Madre mountains toward a new and uncertain future in a government-funded Indigenous settlement. Victoria Blanco considers Indigenous identity with tenderness and intelligence, demanding recognition and justice for the Raraamuri people as they resist assimilation and uphold traditional knowledge in the face of broken systems. In a narrative of unprecedented access and intimacy, Out of the Sierra offers a groundbreaking testimony to human resilience and the power of community"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Tarahumara Indians $z Mexico $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Tarahumara Indians $z Mexico $x Social life and customs. 600 30 $a Gutiaerrez family. 650 0 $a Tarahumara Indians $z Chihuahua (Chihuahua) $z Chihuahua (Chihuahua) $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Tarahumara Indians $z Sierra Madre Occidental $z Sierra Madre Occidental $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Indians of Mexico $x Employment $z Chihuahua (State) $z Chihuahua (State) 650 0 $a City and town life $z Chihuahua (Chihuahua) $z Chihuahua (Chihuahua) 650 0 $a Migration, Internal $z Chihuahua (State) $z Chihuahua (State) 776 08 $i Online version: 776 08 $a Blanco, Victoria. $t Out of the Sierra $d Minneapolis : Coffee House Press, 2024 $z 9781566896542 $w (DLC) 2023053227 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240611010816.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=140F2AAA27B811EF9FBFAF4235ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
