Imagen de la Pila del Águila o Fuente Taurina, Acámbaro, Mich, México.

Ca. 1908

La fuente taurina la considero manufacturada dentro del segundo tercio del siglo XVI, por la cantera que fue utilizada para su manufactura ya que es la misma que se utilizó en la fachada del templo del hospital erigido en 1532.

Esta fuente que en sus frisos reúne un discurso gráfico sobre diversas escenas de la vida cotidiana que transcurrió seguramente en el siglo XVI, el enfrentamiento entre el hombre y los toros, representó una forma constante en el ámbito rural y Acámbaro no fue la excepción.

“I GREW UP with elders that were self-hating Mexicans,” Sarah explained, as we sat in our hotel room in Michoacán the next day. “They were taught they had nothing to be proud of and everything to be ashamed of. They needed to assimilate. To be happy in America was to be as white as possible.”

Sarah’s grandparents moved from Monterrey, Mexico, in the early twentieth century and settled in the East Los Angeles neighborhood known as Chavez Ravine. In 1950, the government sent letters to the 1,800 families of Chavez Ravine, mostly low income Mexican American farmers, informing them that they would have to sell their homes to make way for public housing. The displaced families were promised new schools and playgrounds and housing priority when the developments were finished. Instead, after removing the families and destroying a community, the city of Los Angeles scrapped the public housing plan and partnered with a New York businessman to build Dodger Stadium. Supporters of the new stadium, including Ronald Reagan, called the critics “baseball haters.”
