Thesis (M.A.)--University of Central Missouri, 2010.

Whereas other White Americans may be socially in just one culture, Mexican-Americans are often influenced by at least two separate and quite different cultures. The transmission of culture pertaining to life factors such as expectations of gender roles, religion, and ethnicities all become intertwined. This study focuses on a group of Matachines. Matachines are religious dancers who dance in predominantly Mexican and Mexican-American Roman Catholic ceremonies. The participants in this case study are of particular interest because of their participation in a traditional Matachines dance group in the Midwestern United States. Living in relative isolation from their homeland, many of the dancers look to the dance group as a vehicle to demonstrate their ethnic pride. This research has found that through participation in this traditional dance group, these Mexican-Americans are able to do just that; maintain what they believe to be a very important part of their culture.
