As we proceed into a new chapter we'll take a quick look back on what has transpired on The Tales of Archeron, The Tempests had traveled to Aztlan so they could fix their companion Brick who had a faulty core. Traveling and fighting through treacherous oceanic mountains, the Tempests sought out the necessary magical stones, and subsequently discovered some interfering cultists skulking about, and gained a new companion, Moriko - The Silent Blossom. Though they were unable to discover their motives the Tempests thwarted the cultists they came across and reported their presence to the Aztlan military. After killing and unkilling a rare creature to retrieve the final stones needed to craft Brick's new core, they returned to the mainland to find that Chichimec had been attacked by the same Cultists, damaging many of the forges within, slaying their beast of burden Cassie, and kidnapping both G3-MENI and Borgrir. With Chimali injured during the attack, Pez was an incredible asset in helping complete Brick's rebuild, updating not only his core, but his entire physical being. The ritual to transfer Brick's consciousness to his new body went off without a hitch... except for Brick attempting to make a joke that went off "swimmingly". With almost no time to prepare, the Empress of Aztlan, an Aarakocra named Izel, visited Chichimec to personally check in on the repairs and to meet the heroes who uncovered the cultist's meddling. Just in time for the Cultists to meddle once again with the Tempest's previous nemesis, Zephyrus. To complicate things further, another Greim joined the fray, but the Tempests were not to be bested and wiped the Cultists, and Saedhir's beast, off the face of Archeron... But not without casualties on their side as well. Hambjerger was slain during the fray. The Tempests accepted the Empress' offer to bring them back to Colatl to reward their good deeds and along the way, Pez had a heart to heart with Coyote about the loss of his little feathered friend. Accepting Coyote's deal, Hambjerger was revived within the Orc Lands and it is now up to Pez to overcome his fear to find his companion. Performing a ritual provided to them by Chimali, Cassie's spirit was infused into their wagon home, dubbing it "Cassie's Sanctuary". Though it unnerved a few in the party, their wagon home was now self propelling and sentient. The Tempests spent a few days in Colatl, the capital city of Aztlan, and were heralded as heroes to the empire and Moriko was introduced into civilization and the wonderful past time of candle licking. Visiting the temple to the local deity, a few of the Tempests sought out guidance and received some very clear directions. Following the whims of Tlazocoatl, the Tempests headed North towards Takatari with a slight detour up the Dragon Lover's Mountain where they were visited by both Tlazocoatl and Shenshe in the divine flesh. It was here that the Tempests received a blessing from the deities, Kasumi was given all of her tails back plus a curious vision, and Brick was gifted with a scale from Tlazocoatl to help aid in his desire to protect his family. - We rejoin the Tempests now as their skyship slowly descends down into the land of Takatari.

Last time on The Tales of Archeron, The Tempests enjoyed a few extra days living in the capitol city Colatl. They checked on their orders from the various Aztlan tradesmen and even enjoyed an afternoon of pampering at the Sunset Bathhouse. Soon enough, their audience with the Empress was set and they met early in the morning to, much to their horror, address the entirety of Colatl. While Moriko and Kasumi froze up like deer in headlights, Pez and Brick stepped forward to say a few words towards the citizenry and seemed to have been met with excitement and approval.

Brick stayed behind in Tolani Castle to learn more about his heritage and the guards he was modeled after while the other Tempests set out into the city to see what sort of mischief they could get into. Conveniently, a tour guide was assigned to them known as Mister Yoshi, a rather tall halfling of questionable age and limitless eccentricities. Odd as the guide might have been, he led the Tempests around Colatl without fault, getting them to their desired locations with minimal dawdling. Items were ordered, food was purchased, drinks were downed, and candles were licked. It was a rather chaotic first day in the Aztlan capital. A huge shoutout to Nick Black who made our intro jingle.

Picking up where we last left off, Brick's prank backfired horribly as his consciousness was transferred into his new body, causing many of the Tempests to lose their trust in the mechanical giant. Brick tried desperately to try to make amends and made a little headway, but still has much ground to cover. The tempests spent the next few days helping repair the Chichimec smithy, get their wagon operational, and inevitably await the arrival of the Empress Izel who ruled over all of Aztlan. Upon the empress's arrival, it became clear that Brick was designed after Izel's personal guard and the empress herself was quite young and somewhat playful. The initial, brief meeting was interrupted by a sarcastic round of applause and an infamously familiar voice calling out to the Tempests.

Aztlán as a concept serves as a powerful counter-narrative to settler colonialism, emphasizing indigenous sovereignty, historical legitimacy, cultural reconstitution, and resistance to colonial domination. These arguments collectively undermine the notion of Aztlán as a settler colonial project, framing it instead as a legitimate struggle for indigenous rights and self-determination.

Chimali had been severely wounded in the battle, his mechanical arm was destroyed and his right eye injured beyond repair. Borgrir and G3-MINI had been kidnapped during the encounter. Whether or not that was the attacker's goal or a consolation prize is anyone's guess. After a little questioning, the Tempests came to the conclusion that it was once again the purple robed cultists' doing. With much on their minds, the party decided that it was best for them to complete what they had come to Aztlan to do first; Repair Brick's core. With Chimali handicapped as he is, Pez led the charge in building Brick's replacement body and after a grueling couple of days, everything was ready. Bidding their potential final goodbyes to Brick as they prepared for the worst and hoped for the best, Chimali instructed the Tempests through the theoretical process of transferring Brick's consciousness to the new core. Everything seemed to be going well, until Brick awoke and seemed to have no memory of his fellows or anyone in the room. Distraught, the Tempests hung their heads… until Brick revealed he was making a joke and was immediately reprimanded with glares, hammers, and spell empowered fists that sent him sprawling across the room.

Jose Antonio Aguirre: Adventures in Aztlan

Born and raised in Mexico City Jose Antonio Aguirre has become internationally recognized for his venetian glass mosaic, and carved limestone murals many of which explore the people, places, and stories he has encountered as an artist who exists in two cultures bound by the Mexican and American bi-national spaces he has occupied for four decades. The Journey of Jose Antonio AguirreIn this episode of 'Change the Story, Change the World' we explore the life and works of Jose Antonio Aguirre, a Mexican-American artist renowned for his public art in the forms of murals and mosaics. Born in Mexico City and eventually making his way to the United States, Aguirre's multifaceted career spans roles as a muralist, teacher, journalist, and cultural ambassador. His work, deeply influenced by his bi-national experience, celebrates cultural heritage and challenges viewers to consider social issues and their own identities. Notably, Aguirre collaborated with significant cultural and community institutions such as Self Help Graphics and Art in East Los Angeles and participated in the creation of the Cesar Chavez Memorial. His journey underscores the power of art in community building, heritage preservation, and social commentary, all while navigating the complexities of his adventurous life in the U.S.00:00 Welcome to Change the Story, Change the World00:12 Journey to Knowledge: The Power of Public Art01:30 Jose Antonio Aguirre: A Life in Art and Cultural Diplomacy04:10 The Chicano Art Movement and Self Help Graphics08:39 A Serendipitous Journey from Music to Muralism20:57 From Chicago to California: A New Chapter in Art31:49 The Evolution and Impact of the Mural Movement41:10 Closing Thoughts: The Role of Art in SocietyBioAs a visual artist, I am dedicated to nurturing the development and production of an ongoing body of art that utilizes a variety of traditional mediums, materials, and techniques in combination with an experimental approach to contemporary technology and social issues. I seek to explore the application of space within an installation, painting, print or public environment that invites the interaction of the viewer with the elements of the composition; the spectator is to be engaged as an active participant and not a passive observer. The nature of my art is dependent upon the exploration and exportation of images, icons, symbols, and signs that have been contained within the continuity of creative expression in Mexican art from 3000 years ago until today. The essence of my iconography is traced from my personal pre-Columbian roots and it's mixing with religious symbols of Spanish colonization, and compounded by the contradictory reality of “modernism” in Mexico and the United States. The content is inspired by the duality of history and social experience; the color palette inspired by the richness of the folk artists hand and the local regions natural landscapes. Reflecting upon my place of origin (Mexico) and its impact on the recent history of my experience in the United States, I probe the aesthetics of an artist that exists in two cultures bound by bi-national implications. I create a visual imagery that provokes definitions and questions that attempt to integrate the tentative everyday experience of human nature and its social implications with the cultural diversity of living on the border of two worlds that exist in the time of expanding globalization.

Una gran urbe se formó en el Valle de Texcoco, en Mesoamerica…la gran Tenochtitlan, la ciudad donde habitó el pueblo mexica, un grupo venido de lejos que dominó a los pueblos vecino, subyugó e impuso tributos; su historia plasmada hasta nuestros días gracias a la tira de la Peregrinación; en la colección Boturini. La gran travesía de los mexicas, quedó asentada en su historia, pero la ubicación del mítico Aztlán, la olvidaron, se perdió, incuso el primer Moctecuzoma, decidió dar con la ubicación y obtuvo una respuesta, pero no un punto exacto; al grado que hoy es un misterio saber ¿dónde se ubicaba el origen del pueblo mexica?

Judithe Hernández first won acclaim as a member of the celebrated Chicano artist collective Los Four. The collective would become a major force in the Chicano Art Movement and the first Chicano artists to break through the mainstream museum barrier. After graduating from Otis Art Institute in 1974, she and Carlos Almaraz earned recognition as muralists during the renowned Los Angeles mural renaissance of the 1970's. Together they painted murals for labor rights leader Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers Union, as well as community murals, such as the Ramona Gardens Housing Projects in East Los Angeles where they painted a pair of the first feminist empowerment murals. While in graduate school, her mentor was the legendary African American artist, Charles White. His influence and encouragement to pursue her interest in social realism art was critical to her later work. Like White, she shared a love of drawing which resulted in a studio practice dedicated to works on paper. Following graduation from Otis, her inclusion in museum and gallery exhibitions in California began immediately with landmark exhibitions at the Oakland Museum, "In Search of Aztlan" and "The Aesthetics of Graffiti" at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.MORE AT: JuditheHernandez.com

Our guests today are Geoffrey Land, a Social Studies teacher at Paso Robles High School who has just been named the SLO County Teacher of the Year, and two of his students, Israel Perez and Ana Lopez, both seniors at Paso High. A teacher and his students? What could be more ordinary, right? Not so…what makes this podcast special is the fact that Geoffrey Land is no ordinary teacher, and Ana and Israel are no ordinary high school seniors. Mr. Land has been busy teaching justice-making and activism at Paso Robles High School, and Israel and Ana have both been applying his lessons to real life as they ready themselves for a world that needs much more justice and many more activists. Listen in as we find out how Geoff Land teaches students to stand up for justice, and how Ana and Israel have rallied for representation and inclusivity in an environment that has not always been supportive of these goals.

Land served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Caribbean (Grenada, 1984-86) and with San Diego's Office of Binational Affairs, which coordinated the city's relations with Mexico. Before becoming a teacher, he worked with nonprofit groups—Border Ecology Project and the Environmental Center of San Luis Obispo (ECOSLO). While working at ECOSLO, Land spearheaded local efforts to protect the coast from offshore oil and gas development and the county's north coast from the proposed Hearst hotel and golf development at San Simeon Point. He also oversaw an environmental health project to educate local farmworkers about environmental and health risks associated with pesticides. At PRHS, Land has led hundreds of students on field studies and backpacking trips, helping establish the Field Studies Collaborative. In 2005 he created and still teaches one of California's only Modern World History classes conducted entirely in Spanish for bilingual students. In 2010, he was part of an effort to defend the teaching of Kaffir Boy at SLO High School and penned a Tribune viewpoint on the subject (“Don't censor Kaffir Boy because it discomforts some”). In 2017, Land worked with students who had organized a school walkout to honor immigrants, encouraging them to put their reasons for the protest into a Viewpoint for the local paper (“Paso High protest aimed to support immigrants”) In 2018, Land helped organize a community forum in which nine undocumented students at PRHS shared their stories; he encouraged them to write a Viewpoint for the Tribune explaining why they decided to speak out. (“These Paso seniors are bound for college, if they're allowed to stay in the U.S.”) His Viewpoint on racial conflict and local news coverageappeared in the SLO Tribune in August, 2020.

But there is an Aztec legend [Citation1] which is mentioned in Crónica Mexicayotl [Citation 2]. This legend sheds some insight into where the Aztecs came from. According to this story, the Aztecs were nomads who originally lived in a mythical place called Aztlan, in Northern Mexico. Even the name Aztec comes from Aztecah, which means people from Aztlan. One day, one of their gods asked them to move south, because that's where their real home was. So, they started migrating South. He also asked them to change their name to Mexica and they did so. Thus, the Aztecs became Mexica. Then, he told them to look for a sign - an eagle sitting on a cactus fruit. If they found this sign, they should settle there. The Mexica searched far and wide, and found this sign near Lake Texcoco. So, they established their city there in 1325 AD. This city would come to be known as Tenochtitlán, the powerful Mexica city. But Tenochtitlán was initially not so strong even though the Mexica were ferocious warriors. So, for they served as mercenaries for 50 years. Then they served as the tributary of Azcapotzalco for another 50 years. When everything was going fine for the Mexica, suddenly, things took a turn for the worse. The ruler of Azcapotzalco died. So, his sons started a power struggle among themselves. In their squabble, they killed the Mexica king, considering him a threat to the throne. So, his uncle Itzcoatl, who was elected to be the next Mexica king, decided to seek revenge on Azcapotzalco. So he formed an alliance with Tlacopan and Texcoco, two nearby cities which were also wronged by Azcapotzalco. Together, they defeated Azcapotzalco and killed its princes. After the war, these three cities expanded rapidly and their alliance gave rise to the Aztec Empire. They subjugated other smaller cities in the area by conquering them or forcing them to surrender and pay tributes. Thus, the Aztec empire grew in size every day. But with increasing size came increasing instability, because the Aztec Empire expanded by bullying other smaller cities. The biggest problem was its lack of a system to integrate new cities into the Empire. So, the cities that were under the Aztec Empire were always looking for a chance to rebel. Hernán Cortés, a Spanish invader, utilized this instability of the Aztec Empire to gather an army consisting of Native American soldiers belonging to these rebel cities, and defeated Tenochtitlán. Thus, the Aztec Empire fell, and in the place of Tenochtitlán, the Spanish raised a new city, which later came to be known as Mexico city. Aztec society The Aztec people were divided into different classes [Citation 3]. Different people in the Aztec society are listed below in terms of the decreasing order of their power in the empire. The Aztec king and his family - Top of the hierarchy The kings of individual cities Nobles Commoners Slaves Religion The Aztecs prayed to many gods. They believed that they had to sacrifice humans to nourish their gods. They considered it both their duty and obligation to do so. The sacrificed person could go directly where their god lives, and fight in his army. So, people might have considered being sacrificed as an honor and volunteered. But many people who were sacrificed were only slaves. The nobles in the Aztec society might have also eaten the corpses of the people who were sacrificed [Citation 4], thinking that it will get them closer to their gods. They might have also sacrificed children to their rain god, believing that their tears would bring them rain [Citation 5].
