What if we, Mexicans, bought more Huichol art? | Christian Aiza | TEDxYouth@ASF

Christian Aiza is a social entrepreneur who has been working alongside an ancient Huichol community since he was a freshman in high school. During the TEDX Youth @ASF 2019, he inspired others to find beauty in art work that typically one would not see. He demonstrates to the world the importance of supporting ancient communities in order to preserve traditions. I'm Christian Aiza, a social entrepreneur. I may be young, but for the last three years i’ve been working alongside the Huichol community, helping promote their ancient traditions. During my TEDx talk, I will be talking about the topic: “What if we, Mexicans, bought more Huichol art?”, hoping to inspire others to look for beauty where you would not see it. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

As someone who is part Huichol and who has seen the economic state of my people, this was beautiful.

Hey great way to articulate that. Proud of you man. I mean that as someone humbled by what you spoke about. I am starting a podcast on my indigenous roots in North Jalisco and i want to maybe sit down and talk about it and maybe reach more chicanos and Mexicano’s about how our indigenous roots no matter what part of Mexico share a lot of commonalities and we have to keep these traditions and stories going for future generations.
