" The story of Mexico has always been very sad... During the Mexican Revolution your great grandmother had blue eyes, the most beautiful of them all.. When the French came to our village, the other girls in the village hid her to protect her... Because she was beautiful.. They sacrificed themselves for her, and when the French take you, you never come back. That's when we decided to leave the mountain and live in the valley for protection.. The language of our people are dying the Mixtec language.. Tequi means water, there down below in the Tizac river we used to fetch water.. The story of Mexico and its people has always been very sad.." - Benito Martinez Rameriez
