| 12/8/24 | ![]() Our Spanish Language w/April Bojorquez and Charlene Garcia Simms | This topic was one of my first ideas when dreaming up this podcast - the Spanish language specific to Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado. What makes it unique? More importantly, why don't I and so many of my generation speak it? We delve into these questions and more with author-librarian Charlene Garcia Simms and April Bojorquez, Interim Director of The Aztlán Research Center in Pueblo. This is the video referenced with Neddy Vigil. Mis Crismes 1956: Christmas in La Puente, New Mexico by Gloria Mora was recommended, but I had a hard time finding a source for it online. Get a copy of A Dictionary of New Mexico and Southern Colorado Spanish here. Read more about this topic in this article from 2023. Know of a New Mexican Spanish class online or in-person?

Places mentioned: Huerfano, Cucharas, San Luis Valley You can order the book Nacion Genizara here. For a complete list of Virginia's work, visit her LinkedIn profile. Virginia shared lyrics to a comanchero song - "If you go to Navajoland, take your burial shroud with you. Because dying over these is certain and cannot be negotiated." Virginia found the lyrics in a journal written by Lucas Martinez, who was born in Cucharas, and lived in Chavez, Huerfano County, Colorado. According to Dr. Enrique Lamadrid, this verse is still sung by the Comanches de la Serna. This document and his journal are located in the Hart Library of the History Colorado Center in Denver. On Pages 179-180 and 188-192 of Virginia's chapter (Chapter 8) in Nacion Genizara, you'll find additional captivity songs, laments, and lullabies. You can find a recording of La Cautiva Marcelina, sung by Virginia Bernal, available on Vimeo here. Correction: The cautiva song, La Cautiva Marcelina was not a children's rhyme. | — | ||||||
