Mexican Land Fight

RyanBWylie
The Raramuri--also called Tarahumara by outsiders--are some of the last people in North America who continue to live a traditional, subsistence way of life.The Raramuri decided to fight for their ancestral lands. With the help of the Sierra Madre Alliance, a nonprofit focused on defending Raramuri lands and rights, the Raramuri filed a lawsuit last year, which temporarily suspended the logging at Choreachi. The odds are stacked against them.

Yet one thing is clear: the Raramuri know how to endure.
