6 Rarámuri Runners Complete 340-Mile Race from Los Angeles to Las Vegas

Photo by Toni François / Moment Open

A group of six women from the Indigenous Rarámuri community from Chihuahua, Mexico, completed a 340-mile ultramarathon from Los Angeles to Las Vegas dubbedThe Speed Project . The invitation-only event, considered one of the hardest in the world, had never been completed by a group of Rarámuri women.

The women, Verónica Palma, 34; Ulisa Fuentes, 25; Isadora Rodríguez, 46; Lucía Nava, 27; Rosa Para, 29; and Argelia Orpinel, 40, all had experience in individual ultramarathons or marathons. They ran as a relay group, without stopping – one of the few rules of the event, and completed the race in over two full days and nights.

For perspective, this ultramarathon is the equivalent of a little under 13 marathons.

The Ra Ra Ra team finished the race while wearing their traditional huaraches and colorful garments. Each of the participants ran approximately 56 miles over the three days. The race started at the Santa Monica Pier and stretched through the Mojave Desert to end at the “Welcome to Vegas” sign.

Dos bilhetes – 5 – O Outro Lado

– mariana gouveia –

Na última hora cheia… vivi intensidades. Um menino que precisava de atendimento foi notícia nos atos terroristas. Nunca imaginei presenciar em meu lugar.
Fiquei sabendo da partida de uma cachorra. Preferi ignorar a tutora que a abandonou nos últimos meses. Eu fui colo para ela nos últimos momentos.

A vida, às vezes, tem roteiros
que parecem novelas.

Como vai chover a qualquer hora se o céu mostra Marte imensa pros lados do sul?

As sombras do quintal me salvam. Um ninho se fez na árvore que plantei.
Às vezes, é assim, um tempo compensa o tempo do outro.

Os bilhetes esperam pela hora de amanhã.

Kristi Noem, South Dakota governor, banned from second reservation in state | South Dakota | The Guardian

Her first reservation ban, from the Pine Ridge Reservation, was imposed by the Oglala Sioux earlier this year.

But Noem has continued to voice such accusations, saying at one community forum in March: “We’ve got some tribal leaders that I believe are personally benefiting from the cartels being there and that’s why they attack me every day…”

On 29 March, Noem arrived, unannounced and with cameras in tow, at a major tribal meeting in Rapid City. The governor said on social media she had “felt it was important as your governor to show up at the Pe[’] Sla meeting between various South Dakota tribes and the Biden administration”.

But on Tuesday, the day of the Cheyenne River Sioux meeting, Noem went back to the well, saying in a statement: “I call on all our tribal leaders to banish the cartels from tribal lands.

Florida: Abortion Access Will Be on the Ballot in November, Along with Two Justices Who Oppose It | Diane Ravitch’s blog

Decision Two, in a 4-3 vote, the Supreme Court agreed to allow a state referendum this November on enshrining abortion rights in the state constitution. The referendum must receive 60% approval or it won’t be adopted. About one million signed the petition requesting the vote.

Also in this November’s election, two of the three judges who voted NOT to allow the referendum will be on the ballot. The two who will stand for election are Justice Renatha Francis and Justice Meredith Sasso. Governor DeSantis, an outspoken opponent of abortion, appointed five of the seven justices on the Florida Supreme Court, including these two justices.
