Grupo 1 - National Reality

Chicha Culture We know that Chicha culture is part of Peruvian history as well as one special characteristic that makes our culture easily recognizable. Even though most people recognize "chicha" as a beverage but in reality is more than that. Iriarte mentions that this wonderful manifestation represents part of a social sector, mainly compound by people from the Andes who appear in the capital to conquer and make their new culture in order to fit in properly. This Culture has been represented in different aspects such as music, transforming the "huayno" to a new musical aspect; Arguedas used to say that huayno is a print, clear and very detailed which can not be easily put aside. Even nowadays, we know the impact it has in celebrations. We also have a nice reference from Matos Mar, who explains how the chicha music emerged from an unban creation, from those humble people who lived in crowded areas without chances of moving forward.

MISSION: To demonstrate acceptance and recognition through Chicha Culture. VISSION: To see how Peruvian history has changed in terms of culture, combining city and rural visions ending in Chicha Culture. INTRODUCTION: Nowadays Chicha Culture seems like a big representation of Peru all around the world. But the story behind is quite different.  Some decades ago Peru and its people confronted massive migration due to lack of better opportunities in rural areas, also terrorism began to impact in many aspects of people's lives. As rural people began to abandon their homes and go to the main city, they had to face stigmas and rejection. So, in order to obtain some recognition, acceptance and respect, they began to create a new culture, their own culture to mix both realities in one, Chicha Culture.
