San Diego Lowriders Go Globaltraction to our culture,” say Amigos’President Ray Ulloa. A 1936Dodge by the name of Cimarrónowned by Club member RafaelPalacios, and a Harley DavidsonDeluxe (“El Revolucionario”)owned by Rick Raa Alvarez ofRanflista will accompany the grouprepresenting the San DiegoLowrider Community.

Over the years, Lowriding hasbecome an International sensation.This uniquely Chicano art form hasnow been introduced into manyplaces around the world. “Fortyyears ago, we would have neverdreamt of something like this hap-pening says Amigos’ co-founderRigo Reyes. For several years now,the Car Culture of Japan has slowly

adopted Lowriding as part of theirown identity, and it is now consid-ered one of Japan’s most popularsports.

For Bobby Ruiz from Tribal, boththe technical skills and quality of theJapanese Lowrider has improvedover the years and is now on par withLowriders imagined and built in theUnited States, including San Diegoand the borderlands. As Oryu Oreo,the main promoter of the JapaneseCar Show affirms,” We have beenlowriding for thirty years in Japan andnow know how to build lowriderwith our own style.”

Amigos Car Club agreed to par-ticipate in order to share and inter-act with Lowrider enthusiast and

educate them as to the origins andhistory of this tradition.

As Reyes affirms, “Through thisinvitation, we will interact and learnfrom each other, with the under-standing that for us, lowriders is nota sport or a fad, it is a way of life –it is who we truly are.”

For Amigos Car Club and the en-tire San Diego Delegation, this rep-resents the first of many opportuni-ties to collaborate with others out-side of the United States with theobjective of educating others aboutChicana and Chicano cultures andwith a reminder that “low-n-slow”is the way to go, regardless ofwhere you are from and where youlive in the world!

Although the small town of Ayotzi-napa is thousands of miles away fromSan Diego, residents of the countymust be aware and support the causeof the 43 dissapeared Mexican stu-dents’ families, according to a localactivist.

“San Diego should cares aboutAyotzinapa,” said Elena Marques,co-organizer and co-coordinator ofthe Comité Acción Ayotzinapa, whichis having a march in solidarity withAyotzinapa on Saturday, February28th, starting at 1 p.m. in front of theMexican Consulate, in Little Italy, andending at the NBC news building indowntown San Diego.

La Prensa San Diego talked toMarques to find out more about whatthe committee is trying to accomplishwith this march, which is part of aseries of events the activists havebeen organizing in San Diego. InDecember they had an art show hon-oring the 43 students.

La Prensa San Diego: Whyshould San Diegans care aboutAyotzinapa, and what’s happening inMexico in general?

Elena Marques: San Diegoshould care about Ayotzinapa, andwhat’s happening in Mexico for acouple of reasons. For one, it is sorelated to the struggles here againstpolice violence we are seeing in thenews. Shooting first, asking second,with Eric Garner, Mike Brown, thecountless men, women, and children,unjustly killed by the system, with kill-ers walking free.

Unfortunately this here in theStates is only a tiny glimpse into po-lice terror and violence in Mexico thathas been coinciding for decades par-allel with ours, but to a much greaterextreme. It needs to be understoodthat America’s “War on Drugs” hasreally aided the militarization of Mexi-can police as well. It is our responsi-bility as conscious humans to standup and ask our government to inter-vene at some point. We are border-ing nations, many people of San Di-ego having family on both sides, andour responsibility as mothers, fathers,students, sons, daughters, to stand upfor those like us who live in a coun-try where those who are supposedto protect you, are those who aremost feared and dangerous.

The people of Mexico are demand-ing transparency in what happenedin Iguala that day, and in countlessother similar tragedies, as we aredemanding transparency of death bypolice here.

LPS: In general, how has the pub-lic in San Diego, Mexican or other-wise, responded to Ayotzinapa?

Marques: The people who areaware of the situation, are very con-cerned, angry, and want answers andjustice, which ties into the main pur-pose of this march: To demand main-stream media to properly cover thissituation. Everyone who sees or hearsabout the situation in Ayotzinapa isappalled to hear such a grotesquelarge scale human rights violation, andif there was more mainstream cov-erage, there is no doubt there would

San Diegans will march infavor of Ayotzinapa

Martha Cecilia Gomez wasvisibly shaken as she pleadedfor the whereabouts of herdaughter. According to theMexican mother, her 16-year-old daughter Paola YanethAlvarez left the family homein the central Mexican state ofAguascalientes the morning ofFebruary 1 to go shopping forpork rinds and never returned.

“We don’t know anythingabout her,” Gomez told FNS.“As the mother of a family, Iask people who might have seensomething to come forward, butnobody has” Along with rela-tives of other missing or mur-dered persons, Paola’s familymembers staged a march ear-lier this month through the statecapital of Aguascalientes topress for answers.

The other presumed and con-firmed victims spotlighted in thedemonstration included Sergiode Lara Quezada, 28, disap-peared on August 30, 2011;Maria del Cristal AcevedoGomez, 29, missing since July26, 2014; and Cecilia MartinezMota, murdered in 2014.

In the days following themarch, stickers affixed tostructures lining one of Aguas-calientes’ main streets askedpasserby, “Where is CristalAcevedo?”

Civil society groups such asthe Feminist Collective and theSocial and Gender ViolenceObservatory also participatedin a protest designed to callpublic attention to disappear-ances. “This is a grave prob-lem nationwide,” MarianaAvila, Observatory coordinator,told reporters.

While Aguascalientes is notknown to have experienced thesame level of disappearancesof Mexican states like Chihua-hua or Guerrero, the issue isof growing concern to Avilaand other human rights activ-ists.

According to Avila’s group,data released by the Aguas-calientes attorney general’soffice (PGJE) in September2014 reported the disappear-ance of 239 women and 135men. Yet the same office ear-lier stated that 200 people intotal were missing from 2007

The Missing Faces of Februaryto 2014, according to Obser-vatory members.

In an effort to get a moreaccurate picture of the localproblem, the non-governmen-tal organization is in the pro-cess of requesting updated in-formation.

In an interview with FNS,Avila recognized that the PGJEhas committed to harmonizingthe state’s investigative proce-dures with national ones byMay 2015. But she criticizedthe PGJE for shortcomings infollowing protocols like theAmber and Alba alert systemsdesigned to speed up policeactions for endangered minorsand adults, respectively.

“To the authorities they aresimply missing persons,” Avilacontended.

Paola Alvarez’s relativesquestioned policing methods,too. Similar to the friends andfamily of Erika Cueto (see ar-ticle link below) in PuertoVallarta, Jalisco, MarthaGomez recounted how herfamily was bounced betweenthree separate law enforce-ment offices-one in the stateof Jalisco and two in Aguas-calientes.

Paola disappeared in Lum-breras Cienguilla, a rural com-munity not far from the stateline with Jalisco. Questioningpriorities, Gomez said authori-ties focused on Paola’s lifebefore February 1, instead ofthe time after her disappear-ance. Law enforcement offi-cials from Jalisco have sincecontacted the family by phonewhile their counterparts inAguascalientes have asked themother if she has learned any-thing more about her daughter,Gomez said.

Elia Patricia Lopez, MarthaGomez’s cousin, added thatpolice suspected Paola “wentwith the boyfriend.” Gomez,however, insisted that herdaughter did not have a boy-friend at the moment of herdisappearance. On her walk toand from the store Paola wouldhave passed by a circus thatwas initially the focus of a po-lice probe, which did not bearany results, the two womensaid. The circus has sincemoved on, they added.

“There is no serious line ofinvestigation to indicate where

she is,” Lopez lamented.According to an Amber

Alert for Paola now postedonline, personnel of the storewhere the missing teen washeaded reported seeing her.

Sergio Acevedo, father ofCristal Acevedo, has spentmonths anguishing over thefate of his daughter, who dis-appeared last summer whileleaving work at a departmentstore. The missing woman leftbehind a 12-year-old daughter.

“’The earth swallowed herup’,” is how Acevedo remem-bered Aguascalientes AttorneyGeneral Felipe Munoz summa-rizing what might have hap-pened to his daughter. Reachedby phone, Acevedo expressedfrustration at the course of thepolice investigation. In less thanone year, the officials in chargeof his daughter’s case havebeen changed three times, hesaid.

“They don’t have anythingconcrete. They pass the ballfrom one to the next,” Acevedotold FNS. Unlike the rewardsoffered by the federal attorneygeneral’s office for informationon some missing persons, nocompensation is being offeredfor tips regarding Cristal andmany other missing persons inAguascalientes, he said.

“If I had the money, I’d of-fer a reward, but I can’t,”Acevedo said. “I’m a personwith scarce resources.”

On Tuesday, February 24,Acevedo and a small group ofsupporters and relatives ofother disappeared persons con-ducted another protest inAguascalientes’ main plaza,where state officials werepresent. No official botheredto give any answers to thegroup, Acevedo later com-

plained.Lopez contended that pub-

lic indifference is a big obstacleto encountering Paola andother disappeared persons, be-cause many people tend toshrug off the matter if it doesnot directly concern them.

In Jalisco, on the borderlineof Aguascalientes, anotherfamily also protested in thestreets this month demandinganswers. Curiously, 13-year-old Maria Guadalupe Vazquezdisappeared on February 2, theday after Paola vanished. Theschool girl reportedly wentmissing after leaving home togo to an Internet café in herhome town of Encarnacion deDiaz, or La Chona as it is popu-larly known.

In some ways, the Vazquezcase has proceeded in a man-ner similar to the disappear-ances of Paola Alvarez andErika Cueto. According topress accounts, 72 hourspassed before the Jalisco stateprosecutor’s office initiated aformal investigation of Maria’sdisappearance even though anAmber Alert for the girl couldhave been issued almost imme-diately because of her age. InLa Chona, a boyfriend is alsocast as a possible suspect.

According to Lopez, Paola’sfamily was also told to wait 72hours before filing a complaintthat would activate an investi-gation, even though once again,the person in question is a mi-nor.

Rumors that between twoand four bodies were recoveredfrom a local reservoir during apolice search for Maria Vazquezwere publicly refuted by LaChona’s public safety chief.“It’s a lie, German LopezSerrano told the Aguascalientes

edition of La Jornada. “It is to-tally peaceful here. Nothing isgoing on.”

But in the disappearances ofMaria Vazquez and PaolaAlvarez, political geographycould be an important startingpoint.

Several sources describedLa Chona as a strategic pointin an organized crime corridor,as well as the gateway to LosAltos de Jalisco- another hot-bed of illicit activity. The deathof a longtime regional capothree years ago triggered vio-lent competition for the “plaza,”which showed signs of subsid-ing more recently when oneindividual seemed to havegained the upper hand, said asource who spoke off therecord to FNS.

Last June, El Heraldo deAguascalientes and otherMexican media reported on thearrests of three men connectedto the disappearance and ex-ecution of eight people whowere found secretly buried inLa Chona.

La Chona’s public safetyproblems follow a national pat-tern of state border regions re-sembling no-man’s lands, viv-idly illustrated by troubles alongthe frontiers of Nayarit andJalisco, Guerrero and Michoa-can and Coahuila and Durango,among other places. The po-litical divisions can mean thepredominance of one criminalgroup over another, and poten-tially hamper and confuse lawenforcement agencies with dif-fering jurisdictions.

Avila ventured that a re-gional human trafficking net-work could be behind some ofthe women’s disappearances in

L.A. Times Photographer Documents New‘Harvest of Shame’ in Mexico

By Mark R. Day

When Los Angeles Timesphotojournalist Don Barlettilectures on his work, there is adeep passion in his voice, andhe pays careful attention to thedetails in each of his photo-graphs.

Bartletti spoke to a packedaudience of students and fac-ulty on Feb. 24 at Cal State SanMarcos’ Student Union. Thetheme was a three part serieson child labor in Mexico called“Product of Mexico” that heco-produced last Decemberwith L.A. Times journalist Ri-chard Marosi.

Barletti’s lecture was pre-sented as part of CSUSM’sCollege of Arts, Humanitiesand Social Sciences’ “Engagein Diverse Dialogue Initiative.”

“The purpose of our serieswas to show how the producewe consume in the U.S. ispicked—how the migrantworkers live,” said Barletti.The workers told us that rep-resentatives from Wallmart,Whole Foods and the OliveGarden came to the farms andgreen houses. But they nevervisited the workers.”

Bartletti spoke of his dedi-cation to his craft and the tough,sometimes dangerous experi-ences he has had covering im-migration, drug trafficking andother hot button topics that bothbind together as well as divideMexico and the U.S.

Bartletti gew up in Vista,Calif. After graduating fromPalomar College he worked onseveral North County newspa-pers, including the Vista Press.On one occasion he was in-vited to photograph children atan orphanage in Tecate.

“Afterwards I got a callthat several of the kids wereimmediately put up for adop-tion after they saw their pic-tures,” he said. I realized thatmy photography could have animpact. That changed every-thing.”

For the Times seriesBartletti and Marosi traveledto nine states in Mexico. In histalk, Bartletti focused on 12-year-old Alejandrina Castillo,her mother and baby brother.

In photo montages and twovideos, he explained how hewas able to gain the confidenceof the workers and take poi-gnant photos of their everydaylives and those of other migrantchildren.

These people, said Bartletti,enjoy none of the benefits ofworkers in industrialized coun-tries like the United States.“They have no access to food,rest periods, water, child careor toilet facilities in the fields,”he said.

A few of Barletti’s photosof the Castillo family are quitepoignant. Alejandrina stands onthe bed of a pickup, lookingback longingly at a school girlin uniform with her backpack.

“I want to go back to school,”she said. “I only made it to thethird grade.”

In another photo,Alejandrina works a furrowpicking chile peppers. Withinsight is her baby brother sleep-ing in a tomato crate, hismother working nearby. Inother photos, there are childrenwho have made their owntoys—a basketball hoop fash-ioned from a tomato bucketand a kite made form a plasticgarbage bag.

Bartlett’s aerial photosshow the stunning immensityof Mexicos’ agribusiness com-plexes in Sinaloa, with miles ofrows of state of the art greenhouses, interspersed with cor-rugated shacks for the work-ers. They are crowded 10 to aroom without air conditioningin the tropical heat. The campsare surrounded by barb wire.

“You wouldn’t know thiswas the 21st century,” headded. “It was more like theMiddle Ages.”

According to Barletti’s andMarosi’s series, more than100,000 children under 14 pickcrops for pay in Mexico,roughly seven to 12 dollars aday, even though it is illegal toemploy children under 15 yearsof age.

Another sequence of pho-tos follows Alejandrina andother migrants as they maketheir way south to a new har-vest in Guanajuato. Shots of

trucks loaded beyond capacitywith workers are reminiscentof the Joad family’s travels toCalifornia in John Steinbeck’sGrapes of Wrath.

Following his lecture, stu-dents and faculty membersqueried Barletti about the dif-ficulties of interviewing work-ers and getting past securityguards on the large industrialfarms.

“We had to make sure to getpermission when we needed to,and to leave when asked,” hesaid. ‘’Any kind of misrepre-sentation could have jeopar-dized the whole series. Thegrowers have teams of law-yers. One has to be very care-ful.”

Reactions to the lecturewere positive. Caroline Theiss-Ard of the North County Im-migration Task Force said thatpeople are disconnected fromfood, who grows it and picksit. “They fail to see why peopleimmigrate to this country. See-ing his beautiful photos – youget a real sense of how brutallife is—how low the pay. Thenyou can make the connection.”

Dr. Fredi Avalos, who intro-duced Barletti, said she wantedthe students to understand thepolitical, ethnic, religious, eco-nomic and sometimes grittyrealities of globalization. “Wewant them to consider how thechoices we make on a dailybasis, from the clothes wewear to the food we eat haverippling consequences, most ofwhich are invisible to us.”

COMMUNITY NOTES.....

By Pablo J. Sáinz

A non-profit organizationthat offers a variety of socialservices in some of San Diego’sunderserved communities haslaunched its annual individualgiving campaign.

The “I Have a Voice” cam-paign is Alliance San Diego’sfundraiser where the organiza-tion invites San Diegans to be-come partners in change bymaking a contribution.

“Contributions receivedthrough the ‘I Have a Voice’campaign help us create a SanDiego where all people canachieve their full potential in anenvironment of harmony, safe-ty, equality, and justice,” saidMatt Yagyagan, developmentmanager for Alliance San Di-ego, an organization focused onbuilding coalitions to promotesocial justice and social changethrough community programsand services.

Yagyagan said that the fundswill help cover the costs of pro-grams “which aim to create aSan Diego where all people canachieve their full potential.”

He said that a vast part ofthose benefited through theseprograms include the Latinopopulation in San Diego.

In education, Alliance SanDiego is working closely withschool districts with Latinomajorities to “ensure all stu-dents are prepared for the 21stcentury,” Yagyagan said.

He added that the organi-zation has already moved San

Diego Unified (which is around50 percent Latino) and Sweet-water Union (with close to 80percent Latino) to “changetheir policies to provide andcareer prep courses to all stu-dents, beginning with thegraduating Class of 2016.”

The development directoralso said that Alliance San Di-ego wants to “ensure all bor-der residents are treated withdignity and respect.”

Yagyagan pointed out thatAlliance San Diego is workingto hold the Border Patrol ac-countable to the same profes-sional standards as other lawenforcement agencies.

“As a result of our nationalcampaign, the Border Patrolhas committed to take steps tobe more transparent and ac-countable to their actions inborder communities, which aremajority Latino,” he said.

Another major campaignAlliance San Diego has pur-sued is encouraging people tovote, ensuring “that a majorityof voters in all neighborhoodsare using their voices,” Yag-yagan said.

“Together, we have alreadymobilized 50,000 voters in theCity of San Diego from low-voting precincts to support bal-lot measures like Prop. 30 andProp. 47, which restore fund-ing to public education andother essential community ser-vices.”

Alliance San Diego uses allfunds towards social cam-paigns. For example, $1,000

cover the cost of an entirepolicy advocacy campaign,while $250 funds leadershiptraining. With only $100 theorganization is able to hold acommunity meeting.

“We are building coalitions,creating solutions, preparingcommunity leaders, and mobi-lizing people to advocate forchange in San Diego,” Yag-yagan said. We invite you tojoin us and mobilize for changeby making a tax-deductibledonation today.”

Alliance San Diego wasfounded in 2007 as the Equal-ity Alliance of San DiegoCounty.

The Southwestern CollegeGoverning Board approvedtwo memoranda of understand-ing (MOUs) Wednesday withtwo Tijuana-based universitiesto foster a mutually beneficialcross-border educational path-way for students.

The agreements with Centrode Enseñanza Técnica Y Su-perior Universidad, México(CETYS) and UniversidadTecnológica de Tijuana,México (UTT) hope to createand expand cross-border pro-grams to meet the increasingdemand for international busi-ness and logistics along the U.S.– Mexican border and to makestudent exchanges between thetwo countries more affordableand enticing to students.

Dr. Melinda Nish, South-western College superinten-

dent/president, announced theagreements yesterday at theUniversity Presidents’ Summithosted by the Consuls Generalfrom Mexico and the UnitedStates. The purpose of thesummit was to address the bar-riers for students to accesshigher education on each sideof the border.

Dr. Nish said the agree-ments mark a milestone in bi-national education.

“Southwestern College hastaken a significant step in help-ing students earn degrees andcertificates on both sides of theborder,” said Nish. “Our Gov-erning Board has unanimouslyapproved MOUs with CETYSand UTT that serve as a foun-dation for development oftransborder education workplans among our three institu-

tions.”Under this agreement, South-

western and its partners couldallow their students to attendclasses across the border withno full-time obligation to theirforeign college and no delay intheir native college studies.

Credit transfer programsbetween Southwestern and itstwo partner schools would helpstudents pursue an educationon both sides of the border.

Under the agreements, stu-dents from the two Tijuanauniversities could attend South-western College at the districtresident price of $46 per unit.This would expand exchangestudent’s access to a U.S. edu-cation, which is normally ham-pered by increased statesidecost of living, or increased out-of-district tuition fees.

Anti-Mexican Roger Hedgecock’sNational Radio Program Ends!

“29 Years of Racist Diatribe to be continued in San Diego”By Herman BacaPresident, Committee on Chicano Rights

News reports that hate talk show mouth pieceRoger Hedgecock aka ‘‘Hedgecrook’’, head ofSan County’s white supremacist extreme rightwing has announced after 29 years of makingmillions of dollars that, “He will stop hostinghis nationally three-hour syndicated radioshow. “‘Hedgecrook’s’ announcement wasmet with shouts of good riddance, hallelu-jah, cheers, overjoy, gratification and amenby SD County’s Chicanos and Tijuana’sMexicano communities.”

The reasons for the above glee is becausepersons of Mexican ancestry on both sides ofthe U.S/Mexico border have had to endure forthe last 29 years, “ ‘Hedgecrook’’s’ racist im-migration diatribes, and white supremacistvigilante campaigns such as Light up theBorder, Roger’s Airport Posse at LindberghField, etc. Those political campaigns were car-ried out with the full acquiesces of KSDO,KOGO and KFMB that provided ‘Hedgecrook’the air waves to spread hysteria with his whitesupremacy hatred, race baiting, and bashingbroadcasts against persons of Mexican ances-try.

Unbeknown to many today is that Roger‘Hedgecrook’ as Mayor of San Diego (1983)started out as a progressive liberal, but likemost politicians he was soon corrupted bymoney. Indicted and charged with political cor-ruption (1985) he was then forced to resignafter being convicted as a white collar felon on13 felonies. Pleading guilty to one count ofconspiracy and found guilty of twelve countsof perjury. As with most white collar crimecharges in 1990 were ultimately dropped, ironi-cally (now that he claims to be a right winger)on technicalities that right wingers hate.

In my opinion, after charges were droppedagainst him, he was again corrupted by money(this time by the extreme right wing) and re-warded with his own radio talk show. The price(monetarily and otherwise), I presume was totoe the extreme right wing conservative stanceson most political, economic, and social issues.Those issues included abortion, homosexualbehavior, big government, high taxes, and theirfavorite; opposition to “illegal” immigration, thatstarted Roger opportunistic blaming and bash-ing of Mexicans.

With his announced partial retirement (he isstill not gone) ‘Hedgecrook’ after 29 years willleave SD County with a shameful and despi-cably historical record of himself, “represent-ing the worst elements of San Diego’sshrinking white minority community, andproviding his minions i.e. white suprema-cist, racists, and right wing nuts a politicalforum to incite hatred and hysteria againstpersons of Mexican ancestry.”

Like George Wallace, Storm Thrumond, BullConnor and other figures of the segregatedSouth, ‘Hedgecrook’ will always be remem-bered by California’s soon to be majorityChicanos/Mexicanos population as, “the dyein the wool racist white politician that op-portunistically made (and continues) tomake a lucrative career by bashing Mexi-cans, and high profits for the corporate own-ers of KSDO, KOGO and KFMB for the last3 decades.” ‘Hedgecrook’s racist broadcasts,aired on their air waves have always been ra-tionalized (by the above stations) as being partof, “the free market of ideas.”

“KSDO, KOGO and KFMB radio & TVmanagement and owners in my opinion arejust as guilty (if not guiltier) than ‘Hedge-crook’ for their complicity in allowing himto continue his Mexican bashing on their airwaves; to rake in the almighty dollar.”

‘Hedgecrook’’s claim that his national pro-gram was canceled due to, “A transition pointin my life,” is pure bunk. The real reasonsaccording to those in the “know” are be-cause of changing demographics in SanDiego County and the U.S.” In other wordsa purely business decision arrived by manage-ment and owners (and not ‘Hedgecrook’), whounderstand that sooner than later, or in the verynear future; hate talk show hosts such as‘Hedgecrook’, Lingbaugh, Hannity, O’Riley,Savage etc., minority listeners base of whiteswill be become fewer and fewer, and that willultimately affect their bottom lines.

Reports by KFMB that, “Roger will con-tinue to be part of the KFMB family withdaily features on both KFMB Radio, and aweekly feature on CBS 8” has caused somealarm on both sides of the border. Those per-sons can take solace because as ‘Hedgecrook’’snational program was cancelled, the above pro-grams will meet the same fate; due to chang-ing demographics in the near future!

The talk of the town is all aboutthe San Diego Chargers. Willthey move? Will there be anew stadium? How will a new

stadium be paid for? Everyone seems tohave an opinion and so we decided to addour opinion to the conversation.

No matter what, the Chargers will al-ways be our team. We will enjoy themtoday and tomorrow in the same formand fashion as we have usually watchedthem - from the comfort of our couch,with the barbeque chicken cooking, thebeer and soda on ice, in the company ofour friends and family.

That is the problem with the discussionon the Charger’s football stadium. As afamily, we have never been able to af-ford the luxury of attending a game atQualcomm Stadium. The day runs $400- $500 for a family of 4!

The stadium only holds 70,000 seatsand for a county where over 3 millionpeople live, 70,000 seats only accountfor sliver of folks in the big picture. Wedon’t know for sure, but our best guessis at least half of those 3 million folksare not even football fans.

The 70,000 fans that do attend thegames are, in general, the same fans atall 8 games. A new stadium is a big dealfor them, they want that stadium in SanDiego so they can continue their enjoy-ment of watching a game live with thecamaraderie that goes along with a sta-dium full of fans yelling for their team.

For the rest of us, Qualcomm Stadiumlooks great on the big screen!

Depending on who you listen to, youcan get completely opposite points ofviews on the value of a pro football teamto a city. There are economists who saythat the economic impact to a city likeSan Diego is minimal. At the other endof the spectrum you will have city lead-ers that state the economic value to a cityis invaluable. We are pretty certain thatsomewhere in-between these two di-verse opinions lays the truth. One thingwe know for sure is that when the Charg-ers win on Sunday we feel pretty goodon Monday and when the team makes theplayoffs it seems that the whole city is

pretty excited!The problem boils down to how and

who will pay for a new stadium. For thepast thirteen years, city leaders and theChargers owners haven’t figured out theanswer to that question. Now, in the nextthree months, they are supposed to solvethis problem?! In looking to solve thisquestion of how to pay for a new stadium,we keep hearing about the “success” ofthe Padre’s stadium deal. Herein lies theother problem.

The Padre deal was good for downtownSan Diego interests and it was very, verygood for John Moores the then ownerof the Padres. The Padres deal was notso good for the taxpayer: infrastructuresuffered, the poor for whom the Rede-velopment funds were earmarked suf-fered when those funds went to build thestadium, and the stadium has hastened thegentrification of Barrio Logan.

The taxpayers built a ballpark for thePadres and the city gave Moores extraproperty around the stadium and on OtayMesa. It was a sweet deal for Mooreswho greatly benefitted from the gener-osity of the city leaders. Later whenMoores sold the San Diego Padres foralmost a billion dollars did Moores payback the city for at least a portion of theoutstanding debt? Not that we know of….

Charger’ owner Dean Spanos has prob-ably looked to the deal Moores receivedand was probably thinking, “Why can’twe get a deal like that?”

The Padre deal burnt out the taxpayerand they vowed not to make the same mis-take twice. That is probably why when-ever a poll is taken asking the questionwill you support a new stadium withhigher taxes the resounding answer isNO!

If a deal is done to build a new stadium,or a re-build of Qualcomm Stadium,which we think is the right thing to do, itwill have to be without new taxes! Cityleaders throughout the county and corpo-rate captains need to come up with a cre-ative way to finance a plan to keep theChargers in San Diego. Short of this wewill continue to support the Los AngelesChargers from the comfort of our couch!

One more opinion on the Chargers’ stadium!

La corriente Jacobina, que nació durante laRevolución Francesa, se distinguió por supostura ultra-revolucionaria, ultra-patriótica yultra-republicana. En ese periodo, los jacobinoseran los radicales de la izquierda, los enemigosdel clero, los antagonistas de las castas socialesy los adversarios del rey y la aristocracia.

Si hoy tuviéramos la desdicha de levantarlosde la tumba y tuviéramos que verlos movilizarpolíticamente en la sociedad, los jacobinos,irónicamente, no estarían enarbolando labandera radical de la izquierda. Estos icono-clastas del republicanismo estarían hostigandoal gobierno y creando caos en la comunidad,tal como lo han venido haciendo los miembrosdel Tea Party.

Al igual que el ex alcalde de New YorkRudolph Giuliani, los jacobinos estaríancuestionando el patriotismo de los líderes delpaís sin razón alguna.

“Yo sé que es una cosa terrible lo que voy adecir, pero yo creo que el Presidente no quierea nuestro país. [Obama] no te quiere, nitampoco me quiere. No fue criado como noscriaron [nuestros padres]. No fue criado conamor a este país”, manifestó.

El presidente Barack Obama, de acuerdo ala definición patriótica de Giuliani, es unmercenario político; trabaja en el puesto másimportante del mundo por dinero, para hacerdaño a este país y no por fidelidad a su patria.

Ante los ojos de Giuliani, el patriotismo estápintado de color blanco y negro, no existe partesgrises en su entorno político. Bien amas a tupatria o bien la rechazas. Ese fue la ideologíapura de los jacobinos a fines del Siglo XVIII.

Hoy, hay un sin número de intelectualesnorteamericanos que se dedican a escribir librosque critican la política del gobierno. Por ejemplo,

si uno alcanza a leer los libros de NoamChomsky, un erudito de la historia y política deEstados Unidos, lo único que puede apreciares su “ciego” desamor a las políticas de su paísalrededor del mundo.

Lo anterior no quiere decir que Chomskydeteste a su país. Por el contrario, tal vez esuno de los que más la ama y más interesadoestá en su bienestar. Por eso se dedica a lacrítica.

Asimismo, muchos de nosotros que llegamosa este país, valoramos los beneficios que nosbrinda el sistema político en los diversos nivelesde gobierno. Los que somos norteamericanosnaturalizados podemos votar y movilizarnospolíticamente. Y los que no son, por lo menostienen “voz”, misma que está protegida por laConstitución.

Durante el movimiento anti-inmigrante queazotó a la ciudad de Costa Mesa, muchoslíderes comunitarios –latinos y no-latinos— nosmovilizamos contra aquellos elementos racistasneonazis que empezaron a apoderarse paulati-namente de las instituciones políticas delgobierno municipal. Nos movilizamos porquevimos un peligro inminente y quisimosresguardar las instituciones de este país; y no,como argumenta Giuliani, porque la recha-zamos.

Así, Rudolph Giuliani y la vanguardia del TeaParty, encajan claramente dentro de la ideologíajacobina radical republicana. Dicen ser losestadounidenses más patrióticos del país ycritican a quienes piensan lo contrario.

Lo cierto es que son los más despiadados ylos menos tolerantes de las libertades ciuda-danas. Son igualitos que los jacobinos.

¿Amor a la patria o jacobinos?

By Gabe Ortiz

Funding for the Department of Homeland Se-curity runs out tomorrow, yet CongressionalRepublicans are determined to continue play-ing with our nation’s security at the expense ofmillions of immigrant families.

Everyone knows that a clean DHS bill willeventually be passed, but Republicans have in-stead pushed for a bill with riders that wouldend DAPA and DACA. Four times they’vetried, and four times they’ve failed.

Maria is just one of the young immigrantsRepublicans are determined on expelling fromthe nation. Senator Dick Durbin has been high-lighting success stories like her’s on the Sen-ate floor to show who is living the AmericanDream because of immigration action.

Maria was brought to the U.S. from Mexicoat nine. She immediately found her niche in help-ing others, and when she wasn’t busy tutoringother students, she was a member of severalclubs, and wrote for her high school newspaper.

By the time she graduated, she excelled witha 3.97 GPA.

Maria was accepted to University of Michi-gan, but sadly was unable to enroll because ofher immigration status. Instead, she enrolled atthe University of Detroit Mercy, a private

Catholic school. Maria’s immigration statusnever halted her determination, and in betweenher studies she founded Campus Kitchen (tak-ing leftover meals from the school cafeteriaand delivering them to seniors), helped rebuilda home in South Carolina, and worked withhomeless persons in California.

Maria graduated as valedictorian of her classwith a major in English and Social Work. Fol-lowing DACA, Maria was able to apply for awork permit and continued dedicating herselfto community service, joining the Jesuit Volun-teer Corps as a Program Coordinator. She plansto go to graduate school for Social Work andone day hopes to become an advocate for vic-tims of domestic violence.

In a letter to Senator Durbin, Maria wrote:“DACA means showing the rest of the coun-try, society, and my community what I can do.I have always known what I’m capable of, butDACA has allowed me to show others that theinvestment and opportunity that DACA pro-vides is worth it.”

Maria represents everything we strive to beas Americans. So why do Republicans wanther and millions of others to leave?

¡ASK A MEXICAN!

Commentary/Opinion Page

By Gustavo Arellano

Dear Mexican: As I’ve been doing alot more business in the city of SantaAna (one of the most-Mexican cities inthe U.S.), I’ve realized that a shitload ofMexicans are the Fox News-typeconservative, yacking out the same kindof shit you hear at a Glenn Beckconference except for immigration(probably because Tío Juan has nopapers). But I’ve also met a ton of anti-immigrant Latinos who look like theyjust hopped the border themselves. Infact, I hear more crazy shit from Latinosin Santa Ana about Mexicans than fromgabachos in Laguna or Newport(probably because the only time theysee them is when they are getting somekind of manual labor service). I knowMexico is inherently conservative andracist, and I wasn’t surprised toencounter conservative fanaticism fromLatinos, but hearing such pendejadas soconsistently has been a bit shocking. Isthere any scholarly evidence backing upmy observations, or am I just beingparaoico!

Your Former Student Julio

Dear Wab: Refry this: A 2014 PewHispanic Center survey showed that 11percent of Latinos surveyed identified aslibertarian—almost as many as gabachos!As I’ve been writing since you were in highschool, Mexican immigrants from thecountryside and their descendents (themajority of Mexicans) are naturallibertarians, what with their up-by-the-bootstraps mentality, skepticism towardgovernment of any kind, hatred of the policeand love of liberty (let us play ourtamborazo in the backyard and raisechickens in peace!)—but they also bringwith them social mores from the days ofhaving sex through a hole in the sheet. It’sthose pesky chilangos and Chicano Studiesyaktivists like myself who push our cousinsand parents toward modernity, toward themaccepting the primo in the closet andexplaining why words like joto and putojust aren’t cool anymore. Needless to say,the struggle es real…

Orange County, California — Over the pasttwo weeks, much has been written about howformer supervisor/state senator/stateassemblymember/Lou Sheldon bitch LouCorrea lost the First Supervisorial District raceto former Garden Grove councilmember An-drew Do. Coming a couple of months after adisastrous 2014 Election Day that saw SharonQuirk-Silva lose her State Senate race to YoungKim and Jose Solorio lose handily to JanetNguyen in the race for Correa’s old State Sen-ate seat, and it’s been a bitter pill for Demo-crats but especially OC Latinos, who now findthemselves without a wab representative in Sac-ramento or on the Board of Supervisors for thefirst time since 1998.

The most popular angle taken by local mediaand pundits is that Correa and Solorio should’vewon handily because the district they ran inhave a lot of Mexicans in it, but those damnVietnamese voters in Little Saigon just vote toodarn much! For Correa supporters, the mainculprit is a 2011 gerrymandering scheme by theall-Republican Board of Supervisors at the time(don’t accuse me of exaggerating—no less aconservative lion than then-Supervisor JohnMoorlach called it “gerrymandering”) that di-luted Latino voting power in the First by bring-ing in more Little Saigon voters—you know,those voters who vote too much. Both Latinoyaktivists and Democratic Party officials arenow mumbling about a possible lawsuit usingCalifornia’s Voting Rights Act to correct theFirst’s alleged wrong and ensure Latino winsin the future. That’s fine and all, but that stancewill let off the hook the biggest reason whyOC electoral gains in higher office for Latinoshave now been effectively rolled back two de-cades: the pendejos running the DemocraticParty of Orange County.

Let’s go back to the heady days of 1996, whenLoretta Sanchez pulled off her legendary up-set over Bob Dornan, Nativo Lopez was rais-ing righteous hell, the vendido Gaddi Vasquezwas embarrassed out of electoral politics for-ever, and Correa narrowly lost to then-Assemblymember Jim Morrissey. In those post-Proposition 187 days, Latinos were the futurefor the Democratic Party, and officials up anddown the state began grooming candidates inearnest. It paid off in OC for the next four years,with the election of Lopez to the SanTana Uni-fied School District board of trustees, Correato the Assembly, and the 2000 elections of RoseEspinoza to the La Habra City Council and JoseSolorio and Claudia Alvarez to the SanTanacouncil.

Dark Lord Curt Pringle and Nativo Lopez—why did you make that deal with the devil again,Nativo?l With those five candidates (and theelection of Richard Chavez to the Anaheim CityCouncil in 2002), it seemed that Latino politicalpower was strong enough to ensure that NorthCounty would turn bluer than indigo. But in-stead of building on this core, Democratic Partyleaders let this advantage disintegrate by al-lowing intra-party sniping and promotinggabacho politicians instead of Latinos. Lopezwas recalled in 2003, not just because of hishubris (like cutting a deal with Curt Pringlewhere Pringle supported Lopez’s rallying aroundGigante, while Lopez and other Latino leadersallowed Pringle to run for Anaheim mayor—guess who won that one?) but also through thehelp of SanTana Mayor Miguel Pulido—aDemocrat who felt threatened by Lopez’s popu-list bent. When Correa won his first superviso-rial race, Alvarez was expected to win as hisheir apparent—yet Democratic leadershipbrought back a blast from the past, TomUmberg, to beat her in the 2004 primary (inretrospect, this was a good thing, as Alvarez isan evil, vindictive harpy).

When Correa sought to replace termed-outstate senator Joe Dunn in 2006, it was Demo-cratic Party leaders who asked Umberg to runand asked Correa to stand down; Correa beathim down. Those same Dum leaders ralliedbehind Umberg to replace Correa in the 2007

It’s Ain’t Screwy Voting Districts Killing LatinoPolitical Power in OC; It’s the Democratic Party

special supervisorial election; Umberg, ofcourse, lost handily to Janet Nguyen and an-other Vietnamese candidate in an election thatlaunched the Little Saigon political super-ma-chine. Espinoza, meanwhile, ran for the FourthSupervisorial District seat in 2010, losing hand-ily—not just because no one outside of LaHabra knows her, but because two other promi-nent Democrats were on the ballot.

The only Latinos to move up the electoralranks to Sacramento or the Board of Supervi-sors over the past 20 years, then, have beenCorrea and Solorio—and this is probably thetime to mention that the two were hardly popu-lar among Latinos due to their moderate poli-tics, which meant voters never felt any loyaltyto them and thus doomed them to their recentlosses. Instead of grooming young progressiveLatinos to eventually replace them, the Demswent gabacho: former Anaheim mayor TomDaly replaced Solorio in 2012, beating outSanTana councilmember Michele Martinez andcurrent OC Labor Federation head Julio Perez.Being groomed to replace Daly one day? Ana-heim councilmember Jordan Brandman. Andbeing groomed to take Brandman’s place in theOC Dem hierarchy? Current Centralia SchoolDistrict trustee Connor Traut, a Chapmanundergrad who might be the only person in hu-man history to ever move from Ladera Ranchto Buena Park and think that a wise decision.

Meanwhile, the Democrat Party’s risingLatino stars? No one.

Indeed, when former Anaheim City SchoolTrustee (and 2012 OC Scariest People hon-oree) Jose Moreno registered as a Democratlast year to run for Anaheim city council, in ayear where district elections (an issue thatMoreno heavily advocated for) were on theballot, his efforts got torpedoed not just byBrandman (who endorsed his pendeja Repub-lican colleagues Kris Murray and Gail Eastman)but also by Correa, who did the same asBrandman. A strong Democratic Party leader-ship would’ve whipped Brandman and Correainto shape (as the OC GOP does to great ef-fect); instead, Party chair Henry Vandemeirpresided over a disastrous Election Day and ableak future in Central County for his party,one that Latinos have little part in (SanTanacouncilmember Vince Sarmiento? Meh.)Democratic Party apologists can whine andblame the Republicans all they want, but theinconvenient facts are there: The DemocraticParty of Orange County has failed Latinoswholesale.

Why hasn’t the Democratic Party of OrangeCounty created a pipeline of Latino candidates?The only explanation is laziness—they assumethat Latinos will always vote for a Latino can-didate, and that they could recycle Correa andSolorio forever. Thank God such a pandering,patronizing strategy came to bite the Dems inthe culo via voter apathy and led to the party’scurrent existential crisis. And by the way, I’mnot the only lefty Latino casting a conspirato-rial view against the Democratic Party’s treat-ment of Latinos in California. The big Califor-nia political story in this young year is the vir-tual crowning of attorney general Kamala Harristo take Senator Barbara Boxer’s seat, a movethat has angered Latino Democrats who wantto push one of their own for a shot (most arerallying around former Los Angeles MayorAntonio Villaraigosa, but I’d prefer Congress-man Xavier Becerra, an outspoken progres-sive with none of the personal baggageVillaraigosa carries).

Come on, naranjeros: it’s high time ustedesbreak free from the shackles of the DemocraticParty and register Green or Peace and Free-dom or Libertarian or—hell—bring back theRaza Unida Party. Scare those pinche Demsinto finally respecting us. In the meanwhile, anyvoting rights lawsuit that doesn’t name theDemocratic Party of Orange County as a de-fendant will be as effective as trying to catch arat with a picture of a cat.

Mientras se discuten demandas, fallos,apelaciones, reveses legales y probabilidades entorno al futuro de las bloqueadas accionesejecutivas migratorias, la otra historia es el efectosobre los millones de inmigrantes que estabanlistos para solicitar el amparo y quedaron consus esperanzas rotas a horas de que se abrierael periodo de inscripción. Fue hasta cruel, puesel juez federal Andrew Hanen pudo haber falladodías antes para bloquear las acciones ejecutivas,como se anticipaba que hiciera, pero actuó lanoche antes de que la Acción Diferida para losLlegados en la Infancia (DACA ampliado)entrara en vigor el 18 de febrero.

Los reportes en los medios de comunicación,particularmente en español, captan la partehumana de esta historia, aquella que siemprese pierde en las reacciones y los cálculospolíticos y politiqueros que suelen dominar eldiscurso migratorio. Lo he escuchado de lospropios inmigrantes con los que uno se topa enla calle, el metro, la tienda, que se habríanbeneficiado o que tienen algún pariente oconocido listo para inscribirse en el DACAampliado o en la Acción Diferida para Padresde Ciudadanos y Residentes Permanentes(DAPA), que entraba en vigor en mayo y quetambién fue bloqueada.

Duele también porque uno ha visto lo queese amparo de la deportación y ese permiso detrabajo pueden obrar en la vida de una per-sona. Son innumerables las historias deDREAMers que se beneficiaron del DACA2012 y que pueden seguir haciéndolo. Ladocumentación supone posibilidades, desde lamás básicas como poder adquirir licencia deconducir y un vehículo para su transporte, hastapoder ejercer la profesión que estudiaron, peroque nunca habían podido desempeñar por lafalta de documentos. Personas empleadassuponen recursos que benefician a los negociosy en consecuencia a las comunidades dondeviven. Suponen también ingresos para el fiscomediante la regularización del pago deimpuestos. Suponen, en resumen, una esta-bilidad económica y emocional que beneficiaal individuo, a sus familias, a la comunidad yfinalmente al país.

Lamentablemente el sentido común no rige

Inmigración: El bulevar de los sueños rotosel debate migratorio. Los opositores de lareforma migratoria y de las acciones ejecutivashablan como si los 11 millones de indocu-mentados hubieran arribado ayer aunque llevanuna, dos, casi tres décadas aquí; o como siexistieran en un vacío. Tienen hijos ciudadanosestadounidenses, familiares ciudadanos,votantes y potenciales votantes, si es quequieren considerar que al frenar soluciones, asísean temporales, también afectan a loselectores que después buscan.

Más aún, este tira y afloja judicial, y el otrotira y afloja en el Congreso por el presupuestodel Departamento de Seguridad Nacional(DHS) y los intentos republicanos de con-dicionar su aprobación a que se frenen lasacciones ejecutivas, sólo demuestran pocavalentía para resolver el problema. Losrepublicanos creen que evadiendo, bloqueandoy postergando cualquier solución harándesaparecer a esos millones de indocumentadosjunto con sus hijos ciudadanos. Si dedicaran elmismo tiempo y esfuerzo a buscar una salidalegislativa, pero una que resuelva el tema delos indocumentados, ya se habría conseguido.Hace mucho tiempo.

Pero ahora estamos sumidos en una batallalegal que si sólo dependiera de la constitu-cionalidad de las acciones ejecutivas, se habríaresuelto. Hanen no ha fallado en torno a laconstitucionalidad de dichas acciones. Lasbloqueó con argumentos de procedimiento.Expertos en leyes coinciden en la solidez delpoder ejecutivo del presidente Barack Obamapara ejercer discreción al priorizar lasdeportaciones, que fue lo que hizo al girar lasórdenes ejecutivas. El gobierno busca congelarel bloqueo de Hanen a las acciones ejecutivaspara comenzar a implementar el programa entanto procede el proceso de apelaciones.

La batalla legal arrecia. Para jueces,abogados, funcionarios y políticos, el tiempo noes problema. Para los millones de inmigrantesque siguen en el limbo, la espera supone sueñosinterrumpidos y el temor a la deportación,aunque en teoría no sean prioridad para lasautoridades. Otra demora más en su paso porel bulevar de los sueños rotos.

I would just likean answer. As I’msure you are wellaware, there isn’tmuch letup on thewhole“immigration”debate. And, whitey (being as white ashe can) continues whining about how“the Mexicans took my job” and “non-English speaking this” and “I can’tunderstand Spanish” that. So, how do Iget people to knock it off? I’m just youraverage everyday white guy, whichnobody really listens to anymore.Anyhoo, whitey complains too muchabout his job being given away, but it’sbeen shown on television, radio, andother media that a lot of people can’thandle, let alone keep up with a lot ofthe jobs that the migrant workers andimmigrants get. That, and Mexico hassuch a diverse and rich culture thateveryone just tosses aside (except forthe ever-popular Taco Hell). Spanish isalso one of the easier languages tolearn, and is considered to be one of theRomance languages.

So my question, again: how do I getwhitey to stop being so, well, white?How can I open up the doors to a morepeaceful community between ourpeople? I know as just one loner, I can’tdo much, but the Buddha said, “If onlyone will listen.” So please: help me helpothers end the pointless feuding, andrealize we’re all in this together.America can’t just say one thing andenforce another (although we’re reallygood at it). Thank you for your time.

Just a Whitey

and around Aguascalientes.Previous cases of missing ormurdered women in the statehave been generally linked toother forms of patriarchal vio-lence and impunity, Avila said.In contrast, the disappear-ances of men have been moreclearly connected to organizedcrime- at least until now- shesaid.

For Avila, Mexico’s obliga-tions under human rights trea-ties and international law comeinto play.

Avila cited the 1979 UN Con-vention for the Elimination ofAll Forms of Discriminationagainst Women (CEDAW)and the Organization of Ameri-can States’ 1994 Convention ofBelem do Para, internationalaccords that require agreeingstates including Mexico to pre-vent and punish violenceagainst women.

She recalled the 2009 CampoAlgodonero decision of the In-ter-American Court of HumanRights that found the Mexicanstate accountable for humanrights violations in the murdersof three women in CiudadJuarez, in addition to the largerpattern of violence againstwomen in the border city andthe state of Chihuahua.

“Mexico has not compliedwith these,” Avila maintained.“The international resolutionsdon’t matter to the Mexicangovernment. We see that in thecase of Campo Algodonero.”

More than five years afterthe Inter-American Court’sverdict, the Mexican govern-ment has completed some parts

of the obligatory CampoAlgodonero sentence, but notbrought the real killers to jus-tice or sanctioned officials re-sponsible for an emblematicmiscarriage of justice repletewith the fabrication of torturedscapegoats, the misidenti-fication of victims and the ha-rassment of victims’ relatives.

As in other Mexican states,a local human rights commis-sion operates in Aguas-calientes. Until now, the offi-cial agency has not had a di-rect role in the disappearancesof either men or women. Avilasaid her group has conducteddiscussions with the commis-sion, but “nothing concrete” hasemerged from the talks so far.

Eduardo Jesus Martin,Aguascalientes Human RightsCommission (CEDHA) presi-dent, told FNS that he invitedthe Observatory to file a for-mal complaint regarding disap-pearances with the com-mission’s staff. Absent an in-vestigation, the CEDHA circu-lates photos and personal in-formation about disappearedpersons to the network of statehuman rights commissions,Martin said.

No family members of dis-appeared persons have ap-proached the commission sofar, the CEDHA’s presidentsaid. Martin added that he en-countered the local familymembers of two disappearedpersons during a recent meet-ing in Aguascalientes featuringthe presence of poet and na-tional anti-violence activistJavier Sicilia.

In the broader national and

international context, Avilajudged recent developments,including the Pena Nieto admin-istration’s quick criticisms of theUnited Nations Committee onEnforced Disappearances’ as-sessment this month of theMexican govern-ment’s actionson forced disappearances asbelow par, as auguring bad forhuman rights in her country.

“It is an important symbol-ism because it says the inter-national community doesn’tmatter when it comes to forceddisappearances,” Avila said.“The government is saying itis not responsible, it’s organizedcrime. It’s a clear message thatthey will not lose control andaccept recommendations. Thisputs us in a defenseless posi-tion.”

With the support of others,Cristal Acevedo’s father saidhe will continue struggling andnot allow himself to get worndown by desperation. The is-sue goes far beyond his family,touching the lives of the familymembers of the more than22,000 people officially reportedas disappeared in Mexico, hesaid.

“But I think it’s more, be-cause many people don’t re-port them,” Sergio Acevedoadded. “It’s not only Cristal.There are many children,young people and old peoplewho are disappeared.”

LPS: En general, ¿cómo harespondido la gente de SanDiego a Ayotzinapa?

Marques: Las personasque son conscientes de lasituación, están muypreocupados, enojados yquieren respuestas y justicia.Ese es el principal objetivo deesta marcha: exigir que losprincipales medios decomunicación cubranadecuadamente estasituación. Todo el que ve oescucha acerca de lasituación en Ayotzinapa estáconsternado al oír talviolación grotesca de losderechos humanos a granescala, y si hubiera coberturamás amplia, no hay duda quemás personas tomaríanacción sobre este tema.

LPS: ¿Cuál ha sido larespuesta del consuladomexicano local hacia lasprotestas, marchas en elpasado? El consulado norespondió a una solicitud decomentarios antes del cierrede edición.

Marques: Solo estaremosen el Consulado de Méxicocomo un lugar importantepara empezar, y para queellos vean una gran multitudreunida en el nombre de lajusticia de Ayotzinapa. Sinembargo, las personas en el

consulado solo estánmanejando el papeleo y lostrámites, no estaremos allípara molestarlos y una vezque nos hallamos reunidoestaremos marchando haciaadelante a la NBC, que esdonde se hará el ruido y lasdemandas reales en elnombre de los estudiantes ysus familias.

LPS: ¿Por qué termina lamarcha frente a NBC?

Marques: La peticiónconstante de las familias hasido “por favor no nosolviden” y que sigan elejemplo de las familias a lasque guían nuestras accionesy esta es nuestra respuesta.Ayotzinapa ha sido undestello rápido en las noticiasaquí, que no tardó en llegarcon una cobertura mínimapero luego se desvaneció.El propósito de detenernosfrente a NBC es ponerAyotzinapa de nuevo en lasnoticias. Estamos exigiendola cobertura de la situaciónen Ayotzinapa, porque elmundo necesita saber queesto no ha desaparecido. Enmuchos sentidos, es cada vezmás difícil y queremos que elmundo recuerde la lucha realsolo ha comenzado y estálejos de terminar.Si no van a cubrirlo por supropia voluntad, entoncesestamos como una multitudmasiva frente a ese edificiohasta que se nos entrevistesobre Ayotzinapa y hemoshecho todo lo posible paraconseguir la cobertura que semerece.

LPS: ¿Cuánta genteesperan en la marcha?

Marques: GustavoSalgado era un conocidoactivista de derechoshumanos que habíaorganizado muchasmovilizaciones que exigían elregreso seguro de los mismos43 estudiantes que fuesecuestrado y luegoencontrado brutalmenteasesinado por el trabajo quehizo. Su historia esimportante para que puedaser reconocido por lo quehizo, que los asesinos delgobierno pueden tratar desilenciarlo en su trabajo porlos estudiantes, pero novamos a dejarlos. De lamisma manera no vamos apermitir que Ayotzinapa seaolvidado.

Es igual que anosotros nos gustaría quealguien luchara por nuestraspropias madres y, sobre todo,por nuestros propios hijos.Debemos recordar que noestán buscando para iniciarun partido político, sino queestán buscando a sus hijos yque debe ser tratado de esamanera.

The bulls from the Que-retaro ranch of Los Encinoshave arrived at the corrals ofthe Plaza Monumental de Pla-yas, in Tijuana. The empre-sario, thoughtfully, has for-warded photos of the animals,always a good sign where thepresentation of the bulls is con-cerned. The average weight ofthe sextet is just over 515 kilos(1,133 lbs), and they are verywell presented, indeed.

Los Encinos, property ofEduardo Martinez Urquidi, isone of the preferred ganaderiasof the moment in Mexico,where its bulls have deliveredsignificant triumphs to torerossuch as Jose Tomas, JulianLopez, “El Juli”, Eulalio Lopez,“El Zotoluco”, and JoselitoAdame, among others. Theencierro (set of 6) appearshealthy and completely rees-tablished after the nearly 1,600mile trip early in the month.

The cartel, in honor of leg-endary taurine critic, media per-sonality and Tijuana resident,Valeriano Salceda, “Giraldes” iscomprised of Tijuana nativeAlejandro Amaya, French su-perstar Sebastian Castella, andthe resurgent Mexican aceOctavio Garcia, “El Payo”.Tickets for the corrida, whichbegins at 3:00pm, are speciallypriced. “General” prices forSunny Side seats will be 200pesos ($13 US) and 300 pesos($21 US), however, instead ofthe usual General seating in up-per rows 21-40, these seats willbe in the lower, closer “Pre-ferente” rows 11-20.

The corrida will be precededby an open air festival in thebullring patio, featuring someof Tijuana’s finest restaura-teurs, wines and music.

Jose Tomas, the magiste-rial taurine high priest ofGalapagar, has announced his“apparition” (re-apparition?) inthe Feria de San Marcos inAguascalientes, Mexico, onSaturday, May 2, 2015. This isthe first announced corrida forthe elusive icon, and it occurs5 years and 8 days after hisnearly fatal cornada by thebull “Navegante” of the San-tiago ranch of Pepe Garfias.

Secret talks (are there anyother kind when it comes toJose Tomas—consummatemaster of the old edict “less ismore”?) with the empresario

Los Encinos bulls

of Aguascalientes had begunlast year but fell apart whenthey were made public beforeTomas was comfortable withthe cartel, bulls, and honoraria,rumored to have been nearly600,000 Euros (approximately$1,000,000). To date, no otherdetails of the cartel have beenannounced, but Tomas’ modusoperandi in this latest stage ofa remarkable career, is wellknown; he does not fancy lead-ing off (preferring to confrontthe 2nd and 5th bulls), and thatthe “closer” on the cartel issomeone upon who he looksfavorably. As with all thingsTomas, stay tuned; announce-ments will be stingily releasedas the date of the appearanceapproaches…

Jose Antonio, “Morantede la Puebla” has announcedthat, for a second consecutiveyear, he will NOT appear inSevilla’s Real Maestranzaplaza, for reasons which aresomewhat unclear, but revolvearound the—again—less thanresponsive treatment of thestar attractions by the ages oldPages family managementgroup, who controls the Plazaoutright.

It will be remembered thatlast season none of the socalled G-5 stars—Morante,El Juli, Alejandro Talavante,Miguel Angel Perera orJose Maria Manzanares,agreed to appear in the Maes-tranza as protest against theempresario, which for yearshas taken the lion’s share ofthe gate, television and market-ing royalties, shorting the ac-tual protagonists—toreros andbull breeders—by trading onthe undeniable importance, at-traction and weighty history of

both the Maestranza andSevilla in collective taurineimagination (“Quien es elMas Caro de Sevilla?”Mundotoro.com, 2/19/15).

Last year’s April Fair—oneof the magnum events of thetaurine calendar—was a piti-ful failure by both economicand artistic standards, andpress releases from all partiesthrough the late fall and wintersignaled a thaw. Manzanares,in fact, broke early from thefive and contracted at leasttwo, and perhaps 3, dates dur-ing the coming season. How-ever, Talavante, apparently stillsmarting for lack of “respect-ful treatment”, voluntarily ex-cused himself from consider-ation, and to date, neither Julinor Perera have been con-tacted by Pages personnel.

Sources close to the Maes-tranza and the mayor of Sevillaanonymously released an offerto Morante for five corridasspread out between the SpringFair and the San Miguel fair inSeptember, to which the mata-dor—currently on tour in Mexi-co—responded with a curt de-nial of the offer and refusal toappear in Sevilla in 2015, be-cause—according to Mundo-toro, of a lack of “seriousness”regarding the possible cartelcombinations, which did notmeet the requirements of eitherMorante or the Sevillan taurinepublic. A second straight yearof minor figuras appearing inwhat is arguably the world’smost important bullring, at atime of economic, cultural, andpolitical crises, can have onlyadverse effects on the Fiestaas a whole. There is still roomfor blinking. Whose eyes shouldwe watch?

GUADALAJARA– (Feb. 24,2015)- Club Tijuana played toa 1-1 draw against LeonesNegros in the first leg matchof the third and final series ofthe group stage in the CopaMX. The tie gives Club Tijuana13 points at the top of the groupstandings.

He senta curling shot from the top ofthe box but had it slapped awayby Leones Negros goalkeeperIvan Vazquez.

be action from a much broaderaudience.

LPS: What has been the re-sponse from the local Mexicanconsulate to the protests,marches in the past? (The con-sulate didn’t respond to a re-quest for comment beforedeadline.)

Marques: We will only beat the Mexican Consulate as asignificant place to start, andfor them to see a large crowdgathered in the name of justicefor Ayotzinapa. However,people at the consulate are justhandling paperwork and busi-ness, we are not there to dis-turb them and once we aregathered we will be marchingforward to NBC, which iswhere the real noise and de-mands will be made in the nameof our missing students andthose we have lost while de-fending them.

LPS: Why does the marchend in front of NBC?

Marques: The one consis-tent request of the families hasbeen “please do not forget us”and we followed the lead of thefamilies they guide our actionsand this is our response.Ayotzinapa was a quick flashin the news here, that camequickly with minimal coveragethen faded away.

The purpose of stopping in

front of NBC is to putAyotzinapa back on the news.We are demanding coverage ofthe situation in Ayotzinapa, be-cause the world needs to knowthis has not gone away. In manyways it is getting harder and wewant the world to rememberthe real struggle has only be-gun and is far from over.

If they won’t cover it on theirown accord, then we will standas a massive crowd, in front ofthat building until we are inter-viewed about Ayotzinapa andwe have done everything in ourpower to it give it the coverageit deserves.

LPS: How many people doyou expect at the march?

arques: It’s hard to say, butwe’ve gotten a very positiveresponse in solidarity from theentire county. We are askingeverybody of all ages, nation-alities, backgrounds to marchwith us to show how massivethe global support forAyotzinapa is, because this isnot just a Mexican problem, thisis a global problem.

LPS: Who is GustavoSalgado and why is his storyimportant to be included duringthe march?

Marques: Gustavo Salgadowas a well known human rightsactivists who had organizedmany mobilizations demanding

the safe return of the same 43missing students for whom aremarching. Salgado was kid-napped and then found brutallykilled for the work he did. Hisstory is important so that he canbe recognized for what he did,that the government assassinscan try to silence him in hiswork for the students, but wewill not let them. The same waywe won’t allow Ayotzinapa tobe forgotten.

LPS: Anything you’d like toadd?

Marques: I would like toreiterate that at the end of theday, the basis of this movementis human support and solidar-ity, and this march is here toecho San Diego’s presence inthe worldwide fight for justice,to find these 43 students andsupport these parents. Thesame we would want someoneto fight for our own mothersand furthermore our own chil-dren. We must remember theyare not looking to start a politi-cal party, but looking for theirchildren and it must be treatedthat way.

FAMILY FEATURES

For many families, gathering around the table is a treasured tradition. With universal appeal, cuts of tender, juicy

beef are ideal for a wide range of family-friendly dishes — from appe tizers to special occasion entrees.

If your schedule and commitments have you pinched for time, opt for the convenience of home delivery. Starting

with premium products, such as those available from Omaha Steaks, lets you create the perfect meal every time. Each

cut of beef is perfectly aged and flash-frozen at its peak of flavor and tenderness, and delivered right to your door with

a 100 percent quality guarantee.

There are as many ways to prepare beef as there are cuts to choose from. The best approach depends on the type

of flavor you want to achieve, and how you’ll ultimately serve the dish. One popular option that creates robust, hearty

flavors perfect for dinnertime feasts is braising. This celebrated technique is featured in this Omaha Steaks family

recipe for Braised Beef Brisket. Or, add some pre-dinner bites to your spread with Bacon Wrapped Tenderloin Tip

Appetizers, a savory recipe that is sure to be a hit among guests.

Braised Beef BrisketThis recipe has graced the table of theSimon family, the owners of OmahaSteaks, for generations.Prep time: 30 minutesCook time 8 hoursServings: 6–8

1 Omaha Steaks Brisket (3 pounds)

2 tablespoons canola oil4 teaspoons Omaha Steaks All

Natural Seasoning2 cups diced yellow onion 2 tablespoons fresh chopped

garlic 1 cup bottled chili sauce1 package dry onion soup mix

1/2 cup beef broth1/4 cup soy sauce1/2 cup red wine

Thaw brisket overnight in refrigerator.Heat canola oil in large pan.Blot brisket dry with clean paper towel and

generously season each side with 2 teaspoonsseasoning.

Brown brisket in hot oil on both sides forabout 2–4 minutes each side. Remove brisketfrom pan and place in crock pot, raised sidebraising pan or Dutch oven.

Add onion and garlic to hot oil and cookuntil trans parent. Add remaining ingredientsand bring to a boil. Pour sauce into crock pot,raised side braising pan or Dutch oven.

If using crock pot, cook on low for 6–8hours. If using braising pan or Dutch oven,cover tightly with foil or lid and place in oven at 250°F for 6–8 hours.

Serve the same day or cool overnight in refrigerator before slicing and reheating in sauce.

� Braising (from the French word“braiser”) is a combination cookingmethod that uses both moist and dryheats. Typically, the food is firstseared at a high temperature, thenfinished in a covered pot or pan at alower temperature while sitting insome amount of liquid, which mayalso add flavor.

� The purpose of braising is to breakdown the connecting tissues,enhancing the meat’s tenderness.

� Some examples of cuts that aretypically braised include:

� Chuck (Chuck Eye Roast, ChuckArm Roast, Chuck ShoulderRoast, Short Ribs)

� Brisket (Whole Brisket, BrisketFlat Roast, Brisket Point Roast)

� Shank (Cross Cut Shanks, WholeBeef Shanks)

� Round (Top Round Roast, BottomRound Roast, Eye Round Roast,Boneless Rump Roast)

� First brown your roast using a largepan and some oil over high heat,seasoning the protein first.

� Once the roast is browned, “deglaze”the pan using wine or some of theliquid that will be used in the braisingprocess, to capture drippings fromthe pan that are loaded with flavor.

� Once the roast is browned you willwant to place it, along with all theliquid including the pan drippings,in a Dutch oven or deep roastingpan. It is very important to coverthe top of the pan as tightly aspossible so steam and pressure willbuild up during the oven cookingprocess.

� The liquid for the braising processcan vary depending on the dishyou’re trying to make. For example,barbecue sauce would be used for abarbecue brisket, and beef brothwould be used for a pot roast.Usually if using a thick liquid suchas barbecue sauce you will want tothin it down with wine, broth orwater. It will thicken as it cooks,and if it gets too thick it will burn.

� You can also experiment withputting root vegetables in thebraising pan along with your roastto create a complete meal andenhance the flavor.

� The oven part of the process isusually done at 250°F and can vary in time from 3 to 8 hours,depending on what cut is beingbraised and how big it is. A generalrule of thumb is that the proteinwill shred easily with a fork when it is properly braised.
