The gunman who opened fire on an outlet mall in a #Dallas suburb Saturday, killing at least eight people, was a man in his early 30s who may have had white supremacist or neo-#Nazi beliefs, people familiar with the investigation said Sunday

Didn't we talk the lack of Mexican cuisine in Germany the other day? Well, not only do I have a small grocery store next door, I knew that, but TIL there are a handful of recommended restaurants and Taquerías. (And again I ignore the always-too-crowded burrito at Dolores.)

Frida Kahlo with Rebozo

Mexico / 1937

The rebozo – a powerful symbol of Mexican culture and identity – is a long flat garment worn mainly by Mexican women and worn in various ways, usually folded or wrapped around the shoulders and/or head.

In the Castilian language, ‘rebozo’ means to cover or protect oneself. Other indigenous names are ciua nequealtlapacholoni in the Nahuatl language and mini-mahua among the Otomi people. It is sometimes called cenzotl, meaning a multi-coloured cloth.

These highly-treasured, decorated shawls play a central part in the China Poblana, the traditional costume adopted by Mexican women. The rebozo represents the journey from birth to death – playing its part as baby carrier and a shroud for the dead, and has many other uses in between.
