Lourdes 9, Benigno 18 months, Willoq, Peru, 1997
15.5 x 15" Silver Print

"Lourdes gets up at five o'clock in the morning to take her cows up the mountain before school begins. After school, she makes the three-mile trek back up the mountain to retrieve the cows and returns home to help her mother cook dinner. She carries her sister Benigno with her most of the day. At school, she currently speaks Quechua, her native language, but next year she will be taught in Spanish. (Quechua)"
