Two Raramuri children watch a woman spin wool, with a large rock behind them. "The Tarahumara (who refer to themselves as the Raramuri) are a linguistic group of 120,000 who share a common language and have preserved their culture through isolation and resistance ... the Raramuri also believe they are God's chosen people, and that their mountain home is the center of the world," from The Sacred Corn Beer of the Tarahumara by John Burnett on National Public Radio's website.
