Today we explored big problems that are prevalent in our world today. We throughly discussed issues in our own communities and measures that could be taken to solve them. Many environmental and Indigenous rights issues correlate with each other which results in hardships for indigenous communities. Later in the day, we participated in Mexica Flower Wars with Hector and his daughter. Following the war, we met together for a circle and discussed our gratitude to them and what we learned. Most emphasized to me was the importance of teamwork and how vital communication amongst a group is. When we worked together and strategized we succeeded. This act of teamwork allows us to achieve our common goal.
