From the Mountains to Your Hearts
Tamu communities now live in many countries, but distance should never become a barrier to our relationships, identity, language, culture, and heritage.
Our cultural identity is a living heritage. It must not only be preserved in books and records but also practiced, shared, and passed from one generation to another.
