Social relations in American societies are built over a great discriminatory and racist system because they were structured from racist hierarchies established during the Colonial period and the European invasion. This caused that people from Indigenous and Afro-descendant communities have been erased from official history. However, their cultural manifestations are present in the national identity until nowadays.

1. Individually, without forgetting that you are part of a community, look for a cultural expression (tradition,song, or costume, among others) which has their origin in an Indigenous or Afro-Mexican community.

2. When you have selected the cultural expression, you must go deeper and research the necessary information to make in your notebook an ethnographic sheet. You can use the following table as a guide.

3. In community, share your tables and reflect on the cultural expressions of the Indigenous and Afro-Mexican communities.a) Talk about how these communities have been part of the national history and the importance of acknowledging them.b) In your notebook, draw a mind map and write the five Indigenous or Afro-Mexican communities you found more interesting.
