That’s popular Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum participating recently in some kind of ceremony meant to honor indigenous women. When she was inaugurated last year, she held a public ritual in which indigenous women “cleansed” her. A friend from Central America told me on Friday that based on what his Mexican relatives tell him, he would not be at all surprised if Mexico City reverted to Tenochtitlán, its Aztec name. If that happens, it will be because of the broader de-Christianization and re-indigenization of the country.
