Who they are
The Tusu are an indigenous community living in the mountainous regions of southwestern China, culturally linked to the broader Yi people group. With daily life shaped by hillside agriculture and strong loyalty to village community life, they preserve their mother tongue and ancestral customs, having historically remained apart from the witness of the gospel.
