WHAT IS ANAUHAC?
When the ancestors of the Azteca/Mexica people
left Aztlan and journeyed South to create the
beautiful city of Tenochtitlan (modern day
Mexico City)they spoke the Nahuatl language.
To this day, Nahuatl is one of the largest
language groups spoken by the Native peoples
of North America. Anauhac is a Nahuatl word
meaning "the land surrounded by water" and is
an original name of Turtle Island (North America)




Who is the Anahuac Talking Circle? Can I join?
The Anahuac Talking Circle is a Chicano/
Indigenous spoken word and arts collective
that recognize and embrass their culture and
roots. We also see ourselves as Anahuac
people who have enhabited this land for
thousands of years. We hope that through
our art we represent the wisdom and culture
of our native ancestors.
If you feel the passion in your veins to create
art. If you recognize your roots and embrass
with them. If you want to become self empowered
rather than self destructing Contact us. The
circle welcomes everyone. We are all the
children of the sun.

The Anahuac Talking Circle was started by a few young Raza that saw a need in the community for self expression through art and poetry. We do not see a need for self promotion, we exsist to help our raza. We believe that poetry and art gives our gente a way to express our feelings, dreams and frustions in a positive light rather than a in self destructive way. In July of 2002 the Anahuac Talking Circle teamed up with the students in the Summer Youth Employment Program at El Centro de la Raza. The rest of this story is yet to be written so stay tuned.
