My home state New Mexico. I have lived in Deming, Santa Rita, Animas Valley, Lordsburg, Las Cruces, and Silver City. One might say that I am a southern New Mexico girl. I learned from these places to appreciate a multicultural environment. Thank you New Mexico for lessons which are a part of me.
Forever home. I hope to return someday. Living now in neighboring Arizona. Two states geographically next to each other, yet so very different. I'd take New Mexico ANY DAY!
My paternal grandfather worked the copper mines. He also owned and operated a small store, and served as sheriff. He's buried in a small family plot near his old home in Fayville. My maternal grandfather was a horse breeder and rancher near Silver City. His place is now part of the Little Walnut. The house my mother was born and raised in still stands.
It was nice to see old pictures of New Mexico. I was born here in the 1960s so this brings back memories. New Mexico is still a big producer of oil, natural gas, cattle, sheep and cotton. We were once the biggest producer of potash in the world but no more. Most hard rock mining is gone. Coal production is also declining fast even though we have huge reserves. Wind power, solar power and cheap and abundant natural gas are making it history.
I miss my beloved New Mexico! Grew up in Albuquerque and have traveled the state extensively. The climate, culture and the people are the reason to visit. It's laid back way of life and incredible weather and the best region for food is the reason to stay. I now reside in Glendale, Arizona; Not by choice but out of necessity. New Mexico has never been a place to find a well paying job that provides a good standard of living. For that reason, I moved to the Phoenix area for employment. I'd love to return there permanently some day but for now.......... The Arizona desert is where I live. New Mexico will ALWAYS BE HOME!! I return often to visit and sure miss breathing that clean air, looking up to the clear blue skies and enjoying my favorite New Mexican restaurant.
Im from michigan and have been here since 1980, love every minute of the weather , the haunting beauty , Imay be from michigan but New Mexico is my home
I'm from NM and learned about Texans when they came out to camp in the mountains. They were always the friendliest folks and I love Texas now that I live here.
@@Toydominic My family was from Pinos Altos and Santa Rita, I loved Santa Rita! My great grandfather who's name along with his father was in Fort Sumner prisoners of war of the U.S. military at that time. He had an adobe house in Santa Rita, I loved Santa Rita but never have been to Pinos Altos where my great grandmothers were from! As a child I never knew that I played on ground that Mangas, Geronimo, and Cochise stood! Santa Rita was destroyed by a mining company! Gone forever. :( Imagine they allowed this to happen?)
@@Toydominic What I remember about Santa Rita was it had a very pleasant aroma in summer. There was a little long ravine in front of my great grandfather's home, not very far from the house, not real deep but I loved walking down to it where there were trees and as a child I would play there! It was so pleasant! In winter, Santa Rita had a very unique aroma again. The snow gave it that pleasant smell! I always wanted to take my children to Santa Rita but they destroyed that wonderful and unique place! If you ever see the movie The Outlaw (Howard Hughes produced it) it kind of reminds me of Santa Rita!
Beauty is everywhere! It depends what you are looking at or what you are looking for? Enjoy if you ever visit NM! It is one of the Most beautiful places to visit. Food is great People are friendly beautiful art museums. Hiking biking camping and so much more.
Holy smoke! I actually recall seeing this exact film in 4th or 5th grade. What was really scary is that I recalled almost verbatum the entire narration.
The official salute to the flag states: I salute the flag of state of New Mexico, the Zia symbol a perfect friendship among united cultures. El saludo oficial a la bandera dice: Saludo a la bandera del estado de Nuevo México, el símbolo Zia, una amistad perfecta entre las culturas unidas.
Even back then as today it seems the americans were lying about new mexico, the native americans did not make bread until the spanish brought it there as well as the technology to make it.
My great-grandma was born in Silver City NM & my great-great gm My great-grandma was born in 1890. She was orphaned and had to stay at a Catholic Convent/ School until she got married.
Sandia Labs was created as a separate national lab in 1949, two years after the copyright of this film. Before that, it was the Z-Division of Los Alamos National Labs.
I love how they always gloss over the spanish history portion of our state. Its always about the Native Americans and then straight to billy the kid and gringos who moved in here.
clearly, new mexico is the most sacred location in the US, letalone the western world... Quite frankly, I cant say that the Aztecs got this kind of value nor themayans, ..Another thing this is the only spot of the western civilization where 5 temperal climates can be found within a spand of 700 miles. Its noticeably One within a Great Spirit. They call Him Grandfather, but to the settling nation, He is God.
The Pueblo people made corn tortillas before Columbus. They got wheat to make breads in hornos from the early Europeans. This film is great for the photos, but it is so full of cultural bias. I have to laugh at some of the mistakes in this film. The Basket Shop originally was the post office as it is in this film. In fact it was a post office still in the 1970s.
My family's homeland of Santa Rita New Mexico no longer exists. Thank to the Copper Industry. I last saw Santa Rita in 1961 it was so nice! My great grandfather's adobe house and the ancestors graves were moved to another city in New Mexico due to the Copper Industry destroying that little historic city!
@stevenmontey1984 i agree with u, indians were here like mexicans and natives before the americans came so technicaly the americans are actualy the inmigrants here
I lived in New Mexico for 19 years, Albuquerque. Now days it’s a shit hole and I am so happy to be out of there. But goddamn the history of my home state is way more interesting than the history of most other states
There are a lot of black people in Albuquerqe and Santa Fe hell, they live all over the place. My aunt was married to a black man. His name was Lee. He died not too long ago. May he RIP.
Shiprock is an American name given because it resembles a clipper ship. The Navajo-dine call it winged rock or rock with wings... origin legend of a great bird guide.

thanks for this old Video I love it, May I use some of this on a Dvd I plan to make? Artistichicana My Family is from there, They were miners.
1:24 it was flat corn tortillas . Not 🍞
I love how they always gloss over the spanish history portion of our state. Its always about the Native Americans and then straight to billy the kid and gringos who moved in here.
Its crazy for me to see this having been born and raised n still here how it has changed so much but also hasnt.
U must be the prettiest one in the whole state
@@mcmacshalfilya shoot my mom and my husband think so 🤣🤣

sunshine state is florida...new mexico is the "land of enchantment".....great research Dudley!
It use to be the sunshine state !
LAND OF ENCHANTMENT
New Mexico was originally called the Sunshine State, then Florida took that name so New Mexico then adopted the Land of Enchantment.
True, I have an old decorative tourist plate that I found at a thrift store: “New Mexico-The Sunshine State”
Floriduh stole it from New Mexico. Fact.
My hometown Laguna
New Mexico my home Texas my birthplace.
God bless Mexico The old & what gavas left us.
@cagonesss He discovered america for europe, using your method we cant say we are discovering planets, since they are already there.
Now I want to go to New Mexico
Want to LIVE there some time
NEW MEXICO FTW
I totally agree with you. this was paradise until the developers found it, raped it and brought their typical crap in its wake.

New Mexico was a part of the Republic of Mexico for almost 25 years. (1821-1845)
I wonder if this video was produced after the UFO crash.
have fun
The forgot to include Bugs Bunny and his wrong turn.
Good ol days when new mexico was part of mexico..
1940s?
@@SupremeOracle dunno tbh..
New Mexico became a state of the U.S in 1912.
This documentary was made in the 1940s or early 50s.
They didnt make bread before there was wheat flour! Tortillas maybe.
Piki bread homeboy
I lived in New Mexico for 19 years, Albuquerque. Now days it’s a shit hole and I am so happy to be out of there. But goddamn the history of my home state is way more interesting than the history of most other states
Amen~!
"Baking bread by methods in use long before Columbus discovered America" LOL! They learned this FROM the europeans, the spaniards 2 b precise.
@wrw1066 in 1940...1940's cars were modern
some one night like this i did
Bendito de dios.,.

Haha! Shiprock has nothing to do with a "ship" So funny.
tribus4 Well, they have a rock that resembles a ship. LOL
Yes it does. That's why they call it "SHIPROCK"
Some peoples are so arrogant 🤦🏽♂️

0:45 Indians?

Hilarious!
Native Americans are considered Indians. Not Hindu Indians
UNM was also very gnostic with their design logo ( Spaniard standing on a pile of 💀 skulls )
THE MASSACRE OF HUNDREDS OF NATIVES
😮😮😮
Yes everyone please move to Abq and north. There is nothing to see south of Abq.
Lies. Straight up propaganda. This Hissstory doesn’t even add up. So they built modern cities with a horse and buggies?😂
Wth are you talking about. Pick up a damned book and read it.
New Mexico in the 1940s, Just as boring then as it is now!
Bro new Mexico's citys are just the same as every where else with walmart's and other stores this was just a documentary mainly throw the desert
I love the history of New Mexico it is just such a wonderful state to learn about.
absinthe64
It depends where u live though really either if you live in the middle of nowhere or you live in a very big population like Abq
Tell that to Billy the Kid, Mangas, and Geronimo! You are boring!
