The notebook of tasks accompanies the Tojolabal book for beginners. Both form a unit to help students better learn Tojolabal and its culture, while evaluating their progress in study.
Tojolabal is one of the Mayan languages ​​spoken in Chiapas. Learning the language not only updates the Political Constitution of the country that supports the languages ​​of the native peoples, but also leads us to the roots of deep Mexico to know one of its languages, forgotten and unappreciated for centuries. This way we will know the sources that trained and qualify the Mayans and other Indian peoples to be able to resist 500 years of oppression and not respect. Their language shows us a culture of coexistence, democracy and justice. The Tojolabals know that they are children of our Mother Earth and do not derive from Western culture. Learning will be an enrichment for all of us.
Carlos Lenkersdorf learned Tojolabal language and culture through coexistence and work with Tojolabals. He is currently a researcher at the Center for Mayan Studies of the Institute of Philosophical Research of UNAM, Philosophy in Tojolabal Key is the last of the books published on Tojolabals.
