El Norte, the Southwestern United States, has for centuries been a crossroads of histories, migrations, trade routes, languages, families and cultural traditions. These intersecting events have created a modern world of a tightly woven together tapestry of the lives of Spanish, Mexican and Indigenous people. Their shared history has given them a rich heritage. This is their story.
