Oaxaca Hosts Malia Obama, U.S. PresidentsDaughter

Posted on Sunday, March 18, 2012 | Leave a comment

Oaxaca Times reports that Malia Obama, 13-year old daughter of U.S.

President Barak Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama is in Oaxaca, Mexico,

this weekend!

She arrived on a commercial United Airlines jet direct to Oaxaca from

Houston, and will visit archeological sites and craft villages. Even with 25

Secret Service Agents at her disposal, she would not be here if it werent safe.

Im heading out to the Tlacolula market today. Not likely she will be there,

since it would be difficult to maintain security among the throngs of

shoppers, but who knows?

Thanks to follower Elliot Stoller for alerting me!

t h a t i n s p i r e s , r e p l e n i s h e s ,

a n d e n e r g i ze s . At every turn,

artists create by hand a visual,

tactile or culinary delight -- a

farmer tills a field of organic corn

with oxen yoked to wooden plow,

a saguaro cactus rises above the

semi-arid plateau with arms

reaching skyward, an outdoor

comal gives forth the aroma of

stone ground corn tortillas stuffed

with squash blossoms and queso

fresco. This ancient 8,000 year

old culture of indigenous peoples

first cultivated maize, built

extraordinary cities that are

archeological meccas, survived

Aztecs, then Conquistadors, the

French, 100 years of revolution

and NAFTA while creating a

society that values family,

community, aesthetic and

productive work. It is a safe and

nurturing place. Come with us to

discover Oaxaca. Our educational

programs offer you an

opportunity to learn, explore, and

develop your creativity.
