I uploaded a very neat book to Archive.org a while ago, it could be nice if y’all took a look at it
Its called “Ni muy tristona, ni muy tristona: testimonios de mujeres paipai y kumiai de Baja California”, It’s only in Spanish (although i could love to make an English translation for it), and its a recollection of testimonies of Yumano nation women that lived on Baja California.
Here’s a better summary (which I wrote too!!!):
“A recollection of various testimonies conducted by Doctor Mario Alberto Magaña, made to five indigenous women of the Yumano groups: Anacleta Albañez Higuera, Manuela Aguiar Carrillo, Ernestina Albañez Vega, Francisca Ochoa Montaño, y Teodora Cuero Robles. These recollections are vital keepsakes of the collective memory of these groups, as they are some of the most overlooked indigenous people, and their culture and history are not only extremely undocumented, but it is also currently in huge risk of becoming extinct due to various social and political issues. “
Here is the Archive.org link
I also just found a link to the pdf that was uploaded by the Baja California Sur Archive. I do not know how old this archive is as it wasn’t around when I uploaded it to Archive.org, but im including it too lmao
It is a very important document that is not only extremely difficult to find copies of (the only print i found was for 60 dollars in Amazon, and it was located in Great Britain or smth???), but also touches upon an indigenous group that is overlooked in Mexico.
