“(…)Ahora entregamos la tarea a nuestros hijos ¡Qué no olviden, qué les informen a sus hijos cómo será su elevación, cómo nuevamente se levantará nuestro venerable sol y cómo mostrará dignamente su fuerza, cómo tendrá a bien completar grandiosamente su digna promesa a nuestra venerada y amada tierra madre Anáhuac!” Cuauhtémoc. Anáhuac Huei Tlahtohuani. Tenochtitlán. Mahtlactlihuan yei cuetzpalin, Tlaxochimaco, Yei calli (Trece lagartija, Ofrendas de flores, Tres casa). Jueves 22 de agosto de 1521 Este 12 de Octubre se cumplen 527 años del inicio del saqueo en nuestras tierras, y la fuerza de las palabras de Cuauhtémoc retumban en la memoria de quienes hemos decidido no olvidar lo que la conquista hizo con nuestro pueblo. Resistir al olvido y encender la memoria es hoy una tarea urgente y necesaria, para reconstruir desde lo que somos el porvenir de nuestra tierra, porque “Articular históricamente lo pasado no significa «conocerlo como verdaderamente ha sido«” sino hacer de este pasado el fuego que encienda la consciencia de las y los oprimidos.*

Indigenous languages matter for social, economic and political development, peaceful coexistence and reconciliation in our societies. Yet many of them are in danger of disappearing. It is for this reason that the United Nations declared 2019 the Year of Indigenous Languages in order to encourage urgent action to preserve, revitalize and promote them.
