Tllili Tlapalli is a Nahuatl term meaning red and black that connects the ancient homeland with contemporary artists, writers, and scholars. Tllili Tlapalli is associated with teaching, awareness, and learning through the art forms of theater and literature. Muralists such as Consuelo Mendez and Patricia Rodriguez are two prominent figures in the Mujeres Muralistas movement, whose primary goal is to educate through community artwork. The images used in the murals teach contemporary Chicano(a)s about their history, thus forming a new and stronger sense of identity.
