Today together, children, young people and the elders, all of them
Totonacas, an ancient native tribe from the northern region of the State of
Veracruz in Mexico, gathered to create a splendid 350. The message is clear:
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE IT!

The chosen place is one of the most important archeological sites in Latin
America, called "El Tajín". The "Voladores de Papantla" an ancient dancing
ritual of the Totonacas, have just been recognized as Cultural Heritage of
the Humankind by the United Nations. We all sang and danced to make it
happen, to reach a better world for all!!!

Greetings from Mexico,

Víctor Alvarado
