Its unique boundaries border Mexico, Arizona and California. Thriving along the banks is an invasive and dangerous plant called salt cedar. Its roots drink deeply, helping to lower the water table and adding large deposits of salt to the soil. As its roots and branches grow, its prolific and highly flammable branches threaten wetland ecosystems and create a significant fire hazard to neighboring communities when wildfires occur. It is also choking out the native willow, cottonwood, and mesquite trees the Cocopah people use for cultural and spiritual purposes.

  • VI Mexican Indigenous Groups of the Border Region
    VI Mexican Indigenous Groups of the Border Region John A. Peterson and Michael Wilken-Robertson ABSTRACT The indigenous cultural heritage of Mexico’s border region includes native tribes—defined as relatively small, rural populations living on communally held ancestral lands—and migrant indigenous groups—which are larger populations of indigenous descent living in urban areas or agricultural settlements, usually without a community land base. This study examines the state of the environment of both native and migrant groups within the Mexican border region, which is defined as extending 100 kilometers (km) south of the U.S.-Mexican international political boundary. Just as this definition is problematic when considering ecosystems, watersheds, and other natural configurations, it likewise leads to arbitrary distinctions when discussing tribal nations of the border region. For example, the territory of some groups, like the Papago, extends beyond the 100-kilometer zone and the people maintain constant contact with other closely related tribal nations beyond the border region. Other groups, such as the Paipai and the Kiliwa of Baja California, live outside the 100km range but are closely tied culturally, socially, politically, and economically to indigenous and non-indigenous populations within the range. The Pai, Yaqui, and Pima comprise closely-related groups on both sides of the border but their entire territories are north and south of the 100km designation. For migrant indigenous groups the concept of the border region is even more problematic because their residences may vary anywhere from a few hours or days in one place to permanent settlements of transplanted ethnic colonias (neighborhoods) in urban areas such as Ciudad Juárez or Tijuana.

  • Kumeyaay Cultural Landscapes of Baja California's Tijuana River
    Journal of California and Great Basin Anthropology | Vol. 28, No. 2 (2008) | pp. 127–151 Kumeyaay Cultural Landscapes of Baja California’s Tijuana River Watershed LYNN H. GAMBLE MICHAEL WILKEN-ROBERTSON Department of Anthropology, San Diego State University, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, CA 92182 The cultural landscape of the Kumeyaay living in the Tijuana River Watershed of Baja California embodies the sacred, symbolic, economic, and mythological views of a people who have lived in the region for centuries. Recent research on this region that integrates ethnographic, ethnohistorical, and (to a lesser degree) archaeological information reveals a landscape that is alive and imbued with power, sustenance, and legend—a dynamic construct that reflects both changing Kumeyaay relationships with the land and the group’s continuity with the past. Sacred sites, peaks, transformed rocks, magic boulders, and other geographic features associated with oral traditions populate the landscape. Ecosystems and areas of historic significance represent direct links with generations of ancestors and are still layered with meaning in the minds of descendants. For us the mountains, the rocks, the trees: all this is something important. As my grandfather used to say, this ground is the floor for your feet, the rocks and hills are your walls, the sky is your roof and the sun your light1 [Josefina López Meza, personal communication 2004]. ultural landscapes are an elusive topic All individuals and communities, not just the C for archaeologists, especially those who work in Kumeyaay, give symbolic meanings to the places they regions of the Californias and the Great Basin where inhabit: monumental architecture is rare or non-existent.

  • Important Changes in the United States Population Will Shape Future
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Important changes in the United States population will shape future efforts to improve the availability, accessibility and delivery of health and health related services. Two major changes in the demographic characteristics of the United States population are the growth of the elderly population and the increasing racial and ethnic diversity of the nation’s older population. This growth, plus increased expansion projected for the future, calls for a greater level of concern by persons providing services and developing public policy for the aged. It is important that providers, practitioners and policy makers are informed as to the differences of minority elderly and their counterparts in the dominant majority, as well as about the diversity that exists among minority groups. Armed with this knowledge, they will be better able to undertake the unprecedented scope of effort that will be required to design policies and programs that will meet the needs of our nation’s elderly population in the 21st Century. This document provides an overview of the demographics for each elderly minority group in Arizona as well as comparisons to national statistics. It also examines such diverse aspects as their family structure, living arrangements, economic states, and health and services utilization. These dimensions of minority aging are discussed from the perspective of seven racial groups (White; Black/ African American; American Indian and Alaskan Native; Asian; Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander; Some Other Race; Two or More Races) and older persons of Hispanic descent. Highlights of this report are presented below: Introduction: • As the 21st Century began, Non-Hispanic Whites • In, 2000, there were 35 million persons age 65 accounted for less than 75 percent of the U.S.
