Binational
University to
Create New

BY ALEXANDRA MENDOZA
on tending to the needs of low income
individuals that have recently enrolled in
some type of health insurance and have
lacked habits such as frequent visits to
their health care provider.
Henry Tuttle, CEO of Health Center
Partners, Spoke with La Prensa San Diego
during the event.
“As we are about to celebrate our 40th
anniversary, our members have formed a
new network that will seek to advance
clinical and financial standards of care
across our network of providers. we have 17
member organizations which currently
operate 114 practice sites to care for about
760,000 patients with 2.5 million patient
encounters every year in the three southernmost counties in California. We believe
that we are better together in a clinically
integrated network and higher standards
for that patient population,: stated Tuttle.
The creation of a binational
university to be sited in Chula Vista
was one of the projects presented at
the 9th Border Committee Meeting
of the San Diego Association of
Governments (SANDAG).
The proposal was moved forward
by Chula Vista’s City Council in late
January, and it is currently in the
process of creating a Board and a
foundation that would enable the
project to fund construction.
The idea behind the project is to
have a campus that could host one
or more universities from both
countries and offer degree courses
to students from both sides of the
border. The City already has almost
400 acres of land for the project,
just four miles north of the San
Ysidro border.
“The vision is to have a binational, bicultural, and bilingual
campus… and acknowledge the
workforce that sparks our region’s
economy”, stated former Senator
Denise Moreno Ducheny, who is
part of the project’s advisory team.
SANDAG members agreed that
the project could serve as a model
for higher education throughout
the border region.
“Successful projects could lead to
and catalyze other, similar projects
elsewhere along the border,” said
Elisa Arias from SANDAG’s
Planning Department.
With an estimated 15,000
Mexican students enrolled in U.S.
universities, it is essential for
projects like this one to be
promoted.

John Gómez:
Una Entrevista con el Mejor
Abogado de San Diego
POR KATIA
LÓPEZ-HODOYÁN
Abogados hay muchos,
pero en San Diego el Lic.
John Gómez ha sido reconocido por años como el mejor.
A pesar de tener una personalidad relajada, cuando se
trata de ganar un juicio surge
su lado agresivo. Ha sido
reconocido en varias
ocasiones, como el mejor
abogado del año a nivel local
y nacional, por U.S News and
World Report. El trabajo es
intenso y las horas son largas,
pero el ser abogado parece ser
más que nada, una vocación
para Gómez.
“Tengo la responsabilidad
de ejercer las virtues que Dios
me ha dado”, dice Gómez
durante una entrevista en
exclusiva con La Prensa San
Diego. “Esa responsabilidad
va más allá de ganar dinero”.
En los últimos diez años, su
firma de abogados: Gómez
Trial Lawyers, ha ganado en
conjunto más de $350
millones de dólares en juicios
y acuerdos legales, su record
habla por sí solo, pero el
llegar a este punto no ha sido
nada fácil. “De pequeño nos
mudábamos mucho, mi
mamá era madre soltera, no
tenía dinero y seguido nos
desalojaban y pasábamos de
una casa a otra”.
La inestabilidad en casa
provocó que Gómez fuera de
escuela en escuela, fue
alumno en Hilltop High
School, Mt. Miguel y también
en El Cajon Valley, aunque en
un momento, su prioridad
eran los deportes y no los
estudios, eventualmente se
transfirió a Grossmont
College, después a la
Universidad de San Diego y
finalmente a Yale Law School,
reconocida como la mejor del
país en el ámbito legal.

The locally based non profit association

delivery system in the country and now
seeks to continue to provide services locally

“Instead of waiting until people go to the
hospital or a clinic, [clinics] can now reach

The Unusual Las Patronas: El Rostro de la

Inmigración desde un Tren
BY ESTEPHANIA BAEZ
POR KATIA LÓPEZ-HODOYÁN
The San Ysidro Port of Entry is the
busiest border-crossing in the world.
More than 60,000 vehicle and
pedestrian crossings are processed
every day and inspected using a
top-tier operating system that
provides Immigration officers information for each person entering the
U.S., including name, fingerprints,
date of birth, picture, and even their
border-crossing history.
“We identify individuals who
potentially have warrants in the
system; The officer uses all the
information available, talks to each
individual, and based on that information decides whether to send the
person to Secondary Inspection either
to check their documents, see that
they have the right documents, to see
if they have the right status to enter
the United States, if there are potential violations or if they might be
smugglers trying to enter the United
States,” stated Sydney Aki, Director of

TOWN
FAULCONER OPPOSED X 2
Another challenger to SD Mayor
Kevin Faulconer has jumped into the
race. Former interim SD Councilman
Ed Harris, a Democrat, served for
one year when then-Councilman
Faulconer was elected mayor. Harris
is a former US Marine and career
lifeguard. Harris has supported labor
groups and environmental issues.
He joins another candidate, former
Democrat now Independent Lori
Saldaña who previously served 6
years in the State Assembly. Harris
may become a real nemesis to
Faulconer if the unions throw their
weight and money behind him.
LIKE LIGHTNER, LIKE LIGHTNER
SD Councilwoman Sherri Lightner
the current President of the Council,
is termed out this year. The newest
candidate to jump in that campaign
to replace her? Her husband
Bruce Lightner. He’s an engineer
and businessman. Sherri Lightner
a Democrat, voted with the
Republicans on the Council last year
to gain the post of President, much
to the annoyance of her Dem
colleagues. He joins three other
candidates, Barbara Bry, Louis
Rodolico, and Ray Ellis. Ellis ran
against Sherri Lightner 4 years ago
but lost.
DEMAIO ON THE BALLOT
Former SD Councilman, former
mayoral candidate, former
Congressional candidate, and now
radio host Carl Demaio is running for
office...again. After two high profile
political losses he’s running for
something a little lower profile; a
seat on the Republican Party’s
Central Committee. The usual
candidates are party activists and
political gadflies. Demaio should
enjoy much higher name ID than
them but if he loses this small race
it could be a huge embarrassment.
The upside? Free name tags at the
monthly meetings.
PERSPECTIVE
Rafael and Marco Antonio Sold
Out On Immigration Reform
A
merica has been the
dreamland for
millions of immigrants from around
world for over 200
years. The dream that has come
true for so many can be illustrated
in the stories of two fortunate
immigrant families that fought
hard to provide better lives for
their children in America.
One family came to the United
States from Cuba in 1956 when
Dictator Fulgencio Batista’s regime
stifled the economy through
corruption and misappropriation of
national industries which caused
economic hardship for middle class
families.
The family sought a better life in
the US. The parents and their
six-year old son settled in the heart
of Miami, among Florida’s expat
Cuban community. The father
worked as a bartender and the
mother as a hotel maid and stocker
at a KMart store. They soon had
another son, Marco Antonio, and
later a daughter, both native born
Americans.
Their son, Mario Antonio, went
on to graduate from the University
of Florida and later earned a law
degree from the University of
Miami. He became a lawyer and
later a professor at a local college.
The other family has an even
more interesting story. The father,
Rafael, fled Cuba in 1957 after
having been active as a teenager in
the revolution to topple Batista. At
age 18, his family bribed a Cuban
official to let him leave the country.
He fled with $100 sown into his
underwear. He settled in Austin,
Texas, and studied at the University
of Texas, living on a student visa.
After graduating, he got a good
job in the oil industry and married
an American woman named
Eleanor Wilson. Rafael was granted
political asylum when his 4-year
student visa expired.
They soon moved to Alberta,
Canada, to launch a business
supporting the oil industry. It was
there that their son, Rafael
Edward, was born. Rafael Sr.
applied for and became a Canadian
citizen.
A few years later, the family
relocated back to Texas where
young Rafael excelled in school and
eventually was accepted at the
prestigious Princeton University.
After graduating, he went on to
earn a law degree from another
elite university, Harvard, and
became the first Latino to ever
clerk for a Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court. He later enjoyed a
successful career as a lawyer.
How can the stories of these sons
of immigrant families get even
better? Well, both young men went
on to win elected offices and,
eventually, both were elected to the
most prestigious club in America:
the United States Senate.
Today, both of those ambitious
young men in their mid-forties are
vying to be the next leader of the
free world as they compete for the
Republican nomination for
President of the United States.
By now, you may have guessed
that these are the stories of Rafael
Edward (Ted) Cruz and Marco
Antonio Rubio.
Both their families immigrated to
the US like so many of our families
did. They sought better lives for
themselves and their children. They
believe that through hard work,
they too could achieve the
American dream. They had read
the words of the Statue of Liberty:
“Give me your poor, your tired,
your huddled masses.”
The beacon of freedom doesn’t
call out for the rich, well-to-do, and
affluent masses. It doesn’t ask what
country they are from or their
religion or the color of their skin.
America has beckoned those
hungry enough to want to be here
to come seek a better life.
The Cruz and Rubio families
came here under a system that
encouraged immigration in a
country that welcomed them and

Local Democratic Assemblywoman
Lorena Gonzalez has introduced a
constitutional amendment that
would lower the voting age in the
state to 16 years old for school
board and community college
elections. Gonzalez thinks 16 year
olds have the same maturity and
decision making ability as 18 year
olds. Another bill Gonzalez voted for
this week? A new law to raise the
legal smoking age from 18 to 21. So
16 year olds are as smart as 18 year
olds to vote but 18 year olds aren’t
smart enough not to smoke? Maybe
they should be raising BOTH to 21

understood that we are all immigrants from somewhere else. That
has been the promise of this
promised land.
But lately, the politics of hate and
division have taken over. The
candidates for the Republican
Party’s nomination have fought
each other to see who is more
anti-immigration, anti-immigrant,
and, frankly, more anti-social. And
leading that fight against immigration reform have been these two
blessed and privileged sons of
immigrants.
Both Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio
oppose meaningful immigration
reform. They both argue about
which one is more against a path to
legal citizenship for millions that
have fought to get here and have
stayed to raise their families, just
like the Rubio and Cruz families.
It’s one thing to fundamentally
disagree with a government policy
and oppose it, but it’s completely
hypocritical to benefit from it then
oppose it for political gain.
It’s time for both these firstgeneration American sons of
immigrants to honor the promise
of America and take a strong
position for a comprehensive
immigration reform package that is
both humane and just.
They owe it to this country that
has given them so much.
POR KATIA LÓPEZ-HODOYÁN
When it comes to high profile
attorneys, John Gomez tops the
list. The San Diego native may have
a laid back personality, but inside
the courtroom it’s always game
time. He has been named Trial
Lawyer of the Year, both locally and
nationally by U.S News and World
Report. Judging from his track
record, it’s easy to see why. His law
firm, Gomez Trial Lawyers, boasts
the best in the biz. It is hard work
and long hours, but being an
attorney seems more like a calling
for Gomez, rather than just a job.
“I have a responsibility to honor
whatever gifts I have been blessed
with,” said Gómez during a one on
one sit down interview with La
Prensa San Diego. “That responsibility goes way beyond making
money.”
Over the past ten years, his
accident attorneys have collected
over $350 million in verdicts and
settlements. His wins are impressive, but the journey has not been
easy. “When I was a kid, we moved
around a lot,” says Gomez. “My
mom was a single parent. She was
poor and we would get evicted or
we would move.”
Growing up in a broken home led
him from one school to the next.
From Hilltop High School to Mt.
Miguel and El Cajon Valley. He says
he was much more interested in
sports than studying. Even though
academics wasn’t a priority at first,
he transferred to Grossmont
Community College. Then to the
University of San Diego and
eventually to Yale Law School,
where he graduated in 1993.
“Once I figured out that there was
a path to success that I could
control through my efforts, then it
was very motivating. It continues to
be a motivation.”
That very motivation led him to
work for a Fortune 500 company:
Latham & Watkins and years later
as a federal prosecutor for the U.S
Attorneys Office, where he won 20
straight felony cases. But despite
the success, he says something felt
amiss.
“I did not necessarily identify
with a lack of leniency or of
flexibility, especially with Mexican
defendants who acted out of
financial hardships,” says Gomez.
“So I decided that I didn’t want to
do that anymore. I wanted to work
for the little guy, instead of the
government or big companies.”
He opened his San Diego law
firm in September 2005 which now
includes about 22 lawyers. The
team is all business in the courtroom, but the atmosphere in his
spacious downtown office is
surprisingly relaxed. There’s a
mock courtroom in the facility,
which can be used by lawyers to
train for a case or simply to teach
kids about the legal process. His
firm also has offices in Los Angeles,
Solana Beach and Orange County.
Looking back at his successful
career, he says one local trial
launched his national notoriety.
Dubbed the ‘American Beauty
Murder,’ Gomez led the case
against Kristen Rossum. A young
toxicologist from San Diego, who is

COVER STORY PG1
COMMUNITY CLINICS
After unveiling the newly
reformed association, Tuttle
revealed two subsidiaries of
Health Center Partners which will
aid in meeting HCP’s goals
The first subsidiary, Integrated
Health Partners (IHP), is a
network that brings together
health centers throughout our
communities with the aim of
raising quality care standards and
reducing the costs involved in .
Integrated Health Partners
leverages assembled data from
nearly 500,000 patients to find
the best solutions to the challenges that low income residents
face, and to improve effective
intervention in their medical care
needs while tending to the shift to
value based healthcare.
IHP will also help boost
improvements and quality of care,
through rigorous assessments of
performance and service quality
which is a measure taken to
continue success in the future.
Integrated Health Partners will
perform these duties while also
acting as a single unified voice
representing primary care
providers in the network.
A third subsidiary organization
which will be joining these efforts
was announced as well.
Health Quality Partners (HPQ)
will provide health outcome
analyses through community
action and programs to support
clinics and health centers aiding
the safety net population. HQP
will make use of available
resources and capital to bring
services and programs that would
otherwise not be available to
community partner organizations.
A wide range of programs such
as disease management, behavioral health, oral health, women’s
health and diagnostic services
and more will be made available
with high standards of attention
and quality at partner clinics.
With the advent of the affordable care act, many clinics in the
community are moving from
offering services to families to the
senior demographic, a community
which is often dealing with
overlapping chronic conditions or
illnesses that often go untreated
or without regulation due to a
lack to access to care.
With a steady rise in member
numbers, the launch of this
networking effort feels timely.
“Higher standards of care across
our system is something to look
forward to. Whether you seek care
in Alpine, San Ysidro, El Cajon or
Vista, our members will deliver
the same standard of care from
site to site. Patients will see
improved clinical care over time
because standards will be
increased and made tougher every
year,” Tuttle added.
“As we forge the road ahead, we
are focused on new strategic plans
which will drive up support
through 2020. Together we will
serve as the nexus for our
members and partners to transform our partners through
innovation and collaboration. We
will be the thought leaders and
drivers of change in the marketplace,” Tuttle added.
The San Diego Family Care
Clinic, where the conference was
held, is slated to open in six weeks
in the Linda Vista area where
thousands of community residents
will be served.

Adopciones
Homosexuales
en Estados

POR ALEXANDRA MENDOZA
26 de junio del 2015, un día
histórico para la comunidad
homosexual en Estados Unidos, la
bandera multicolor ondeaba más
fuerte que nunca, los esfuerzos de
cada uno de los miembros de esta
comunidad, quienes lucharon por
décadas por hacer valer sus
derechos, finalmente rendían frutos
y, es que ese día la Suprema Corte
de Justicia aprobó los matrimonios
homosexuales en todos los estados
de la Unión Americana. Esta
decisión también marcó un nuevo
rumbo para uno de los temas más
controversiales de los últimos
tiempos: La adopción entre parejas
del mismo sexo.
“Aunque sea legal a nivel federal
el matrimonio, todavía hay muchos
estados que se están oponiendo a la
adopción, hay estados que son muy
conservadores y depende de quien
está haciendo la solicitud, hay
estados que todavía están peleando.” Destacó Adriana Alcocer,
Directora de la Comunidad LGTB
del Condado de San Diego.
Aunque se ganó una batalla, la
guerra aún continúa, ya que la
comunidad LGTB asegura que aún
hay mucho por hacer.
“En odos los estados es diferente,
pero ahora con lo del matrimonio
esperemos que cambie la situación,
pero todavía hay mucho trabajo por
hacer en cuestiones de adopción, y
aparte de la adopción tenemos a
personas que quieren tener sus
propios hijos, por medio de ir al
banco de esperma”, Agregó Adriana
Alcocer, Directora de la Comunidad
LGTB del Condado de San Diego.
Los miembros de la comunidad
homosexual, aún enfrentan
barreras administrativas en los
procesos de adopción, especialistas
aseguran que este tipo de trámites
son tardados y costosos, por lo que
cuando se trata de una pareja del
mismo sexo se prolonga aún más.
“Una pareja tiene que someter
una petición al juzgado, tienen que
pagar su cuota para abrir un caso,
no es barato, es bastante costoso, el
proceso es difícil de predecir
porque va a depender de lo que
tome al condado en concluir las
entrevistas. Habrá que revisar todos
los records existentes, si tiene
antecedentes penales, tiene que
someterse a revisión de huellas,
todas las personas que van a vivir
con el menor tienen que someterse
a estos procedimientos”, agregó
Claudia García, abogada de derecho
familiar.
Pero eso no lo es todo, también
aseguran son víctimas de discriminación, ya que un número
significativo de organizaciones se
han declarado en contra de la
adopción entre homosexuales, ya
que aseguran que los menores no
crecerían en un entorno adecuado.
“Nosotros la comunidad gay
tenemos mucho amor para dar a un
niño, se nos ha atacado que porque
somos gay, vamos atacar a un niño
que puede ser sexualmente
abusado, eso es una mentira. No
importa la raza, no importa el sexo
mientras tu tengas tanto amor para
sacar a ese niño adelante” .
Manifestó Ernesto Villanueva,
miembro de la Comunidad Gay.
Entre los procesos, las parejas
homoparentales también deben
especificar su género dentro de la
La creación de una Universidad
Binacional en Chula Vista, fue uno
de los proyectos presentados ante
líderes de México y Estados
Unidos, en la novena reunión del
comité fronterizo de la Asociación
de Gobiernos de San Diego
(SANDAG).
A finales de Enero, la propuesta
avanzó en el cabildo de Chula
Vista, por lo que ahora, el proyecto
se encuentra en la etapa de
conformar una junta directiva y
una fundación que permita establecer un fondo para la construcción
de esta institución educativa.
El concepto consiste en construir
un campus que albergue a una o
más universidades de ambos países
y ofrezca licenciaturas para
estudiantes en ambos lados de la
frontera. Para ello, la ciudad
cuenta con un terreno de casi 400
acres ubicado a unas cuatro millas
de Tijuana.
“La visión es tener un campus
binacional, bicultural y bilingüe, y
reconocer la importancia de la
fuerza laboral que impulsa a la
economía de la región”. Mencionó
la ex-senadora Denise Moreno
Ducheny, quien forma parte de un
grupo de asesores en este proyecto.
La conformación de este
proyecto, podría establecer un
modelo educativo a lo largo de la
franja fronteriza, coincidieron
autoridades de (SANDAG).
“Es posible que los proyectos que
son exitosos, den pie y sean
catalizadores para otros proyectos
similares a lo largo de la frontera”.
Consideró Elisa Arias, del departamento de planeación de
(SANDAG).
Se estima que cerca de 15 mil
estudiantes mexicanos acuden a
universidades en Estados Unidos,
por lo que es indispensable
promover proyectos educativos de
este tipo.
“Sabemos que mucha gente de
Baja California, cruza diario para
oportunidades a todos niveles de
enseñanza en la región de San
Diego, y también que hay
proyectos para que haya más
estudiantes de San Diego en
Tijuana, por lo que todas estas
iniciativas son muy importantes
para la región”, abundó Arias.
El enfoque de este campus, sería
en carreras universitarias de
ciencia y tecnología, que beneficien
los intereses de esta zona
fronteriza.
“Vivimos en una región binacional, así que es un ajuste natural
el tener una universidad que se
enfocará en manufactura avanzada, ingeniería, medicina del
deporte, todo ello encaja con la
visión de esta comunidad”. Señaló
la alcaldesa de Chula Vista, Mary
Salas, entrevistada en un evento
previo a la reunión de (SANDAG).
Por lo pronto, la firma de
consultoría U3 Advisors,
contratada por la ciudad de Chula
Vista, trabaja en identificar
instituciones de educación superior, tanto en México como Estados
Unidos para formar parte de este
proyecto sin precedentes.
Tras una evaluación exhaustiva,
se determinará si este proyecto
será financiado como una institución pública, privada o
público-privada.

Panorama Electoral y
Racismo en EUA
POR ESTEPHANIA BAEZ
A lo largo de los años, Estados
Unidos ha sido considerado uno de
los países con mayor índice de
racismo, esto derivado al alto
número de inmigrantes provenientes de todas partes del mundo, a
pesar de ello, en los últimos años
las numerosas protestas a favor de
la igualdad de los derechos se han
hecho notar, y el porcentaje de
norteamericanos que participan es
cada vez mayor, un claro ejemplo es
el caso del candidato a la presidencia de la Unión Americana
Donald Trump, quien después de
sus comentarios racistas en su
lanzamiento de campaña, varias
empresas de renombre decidieron
cortar lazos con él.
“Cuando México nos envía a su
gente, no, nos están enviando a los
mejores, nos están enviando a
personas con muchos problemas, y
los están trayendo aquí, traen
drogas, traen crimen, son violadores.” Fueron las palabras del
precandidato que indignaron a
miles de latinos que viven en
Estados Unidos.
A pesar de todo lo ocurrido, el
empresario lejos de manifestar sus
disculpas ha reafirmado su postura
respecto a dicha comunidad, e
incluso propuso construir un muro
entre la frontera con México, bajo el
argumento de evitar que más
mexicanos se roben los puestos de
norteamericanos.
Por otra parte, esas frases que
denotan desprecio en contra de una
raza que no pertenece a su país, lo
han llevado a posicionarse como el
líder del partido al que representa.
De acuerdo a un estudio emitido
por la Universidad de Arkansas, el
número de simpatizantes a los
grupos en contra de los inmigrantes
incrementó durante el 2015, en
donde se han convocado más de un
centenar de protestas en diferentes
estados del país, la mayoría
aseguran haber sido motivados por
los discursos anti inmigrantes del
aspirante a la Casa Blanca. Las
encuestas realizadas arrojaron que
el desprecio de los norteamericanos
creció, sobre todo en contra de los
mexicanos y con ello ha opacado la

La Diva de la Danza Tijuanense
POR PACO ZAVALA
Dueña absoluta de un impresionante CV, la diva de la danza
tijuanense, la bailarina y maestra,
Minerva Tapia, impartió el pasado
miércoles en el Centro Estatal de las
Artes Tijuana (CEART), la charla
magistral “Danzas fronterizas”, con
el objetivo de dar un mayor impulso
a las artes y a la disciplina de la
danza en la región fronteriza,
promovida por el Instituto de
Cultura de Baja California (ICBC).
La maestra Minerva Tapia, es
Licenciada en Danza por la Escuela
de Danza, Gloria Campobello de
Tijuana, B.C.(1986), Maestra en
Danza especializada en coreografía
por la Universidad de California,
Irvine (2006), Doctora de Danza
por la Universidad de California,
Riverside (2014).
Minerva Tapia ha consolidado su
formación artística con estudios en
México, Nueva York, Los Ángeles,
Brasil, Canadá, Turquía y durante
siete años en Cuba. Su actividad
docente es reconocida en el
Noroeste de México y en Estados
Unidos, especialmente por su
fomento al intercambio artístico
entre ambos países. En 2004 el
Consejo de Desarrollo Económico
de Tijuana, y el Comité de Imagen
de Tijuana le otorgó el
reconocimiento”Paseo de la Fama”.
Es consigna permanente del
Gobernador del Estado, Lic.
Francisco Arturo Vega de la Madrid,
“Kiko”, “Impulsar todo movimiento
que fortalezca al tejido social”.
Ahora bien, la danza es una de las
disciplinas más atractivas y proliferas en nuestro entorno, y día a día
más miembros de la sociedad se
suman para impulsar y fortalecer
este arte, así lo comentó el
Coordinador del CEART Tijuana,
José Aguirre Lomelí.
En esta conferencia, Minerva
habla sobre la investigación que
está enfocada en las aportaciones de
la coreografía para el estudio de la
frontera; específicamente en un
estudio sobre la danza contemporánea en la región Tijuana-San
Diego. Dice Minerva: ” He estado
interesada en cómo la emigración,
el racismo, el contrabando, el
narcotráfico e identidad en ambos
lados de la frontera nos proporcionan información e interfieren en
la colaboración para dar forma a
coreografías de danzas binacionales,
resultando de esta mezcla un género
de danzas exclusivas a las que
denominamos danzas fronterizas,
usando el cuerpo como un escaparate político y económico”.
Manifestó a lo largo de la frontera
México- Estados Unidos.
La Diva de la danza, Minerva
Tapia, ha creado más de cincuenta
coreografías entre las que destacan:

y a una de las mismas
Patronas.
“Se empezó a hacer sin
querer”, cuenta Mariela Najero
Romero, una de las aproximadamente 14 Patronas que
forman parte del grupo, “Nació
de la nada y se ha convertido
en algo grande”.
Fue en 1995, cuando inmigrantes que caminaban por las
vías del tren, le pidieron algo
de comer a Norma Romero
Vásquez, ella les ayudó y
eventualmente más peticiones
surgieron. Poco a poco familiares y vecinos empezaron a
ayudar, con el pasar de los
años incrementó el flujo de
inmigrantes y con ello,
también el apoyo que brindan
Las Patronas. A pesar de sus
limitaciones económicas, el
grupo sigue preparando y
JOHN GOMEZ
CONTINUACION DE P.1
un camino que yo mismo podía
controlar, me motivé mucho “,
“De hecho, eso sigue siendo
parte de mi motivación”, dice
Gómez.
Su carrera como abogado ha
tenido un poco de todo, ha
trabajado en firmas legales de
renombre como Letham &
Watkins, la cual forma parte de
las llamadas “Fortune 500
Companies”, también trabajó
como procurador federal,
donde ganó 20 casos consecutivos. A pesar del éxito
profesional, sentía una
inquietud…
“No me identificaba con la
falta de flexibilidad del proceso
legal, sobre todo cuando se
trataba de casos que involucraron a mexicanos que habían
actuado por necesidad
económica”, asegura Gómez
“Decidí que no quería seguir
con este tipo de casos, al revés,
entregando comida, dia y
noche, para los inmigrantes,
cocinan por horas y con
bolsas de plástico en las
manos y con sus mandiles
aún puestos, esperan que
pase el tren para entregarle
la comida a los inmigrantes.
Aunque en un momento
pasaban desapercibidas 21
años después, se han ganado
premios humanitarios por su
labor, generando atención
internacional, todo se hace
gratis, su única compensación es ayudar al prójimo.
“Viene gente buena y mala
en el tren”, dice Romero al
hablar en USD, “Pero no es
nuestro trabajo ver quién es
quién, es Dios quién los
juzgará”.
Mientras gobiernos y
políticos descifran los
problemas en el sistema
migratorio, Las Patronas se
enfocan en lo básico. Su
quería defender a la persona
vulnerable y no al gobierno o a
una compañía
multimillonaria”.
En septiembre de 2005,
Gómez fundó su propia firma
legal, donde actualmente
ejercen aproximadamente 22
abogados, aunque el equipo
toma seriamente la responsabilidad de ganar en corte, la
oficina en el centro de San
Diego tiene un ambiente
relajado, incluso cuentan con
un salón que se ha convertido
en la réplica de un tribunal,
donde los abogados pueden
practicar para su próximo
juicio, o bien donde niños
pueden aprender más sobre el
proceso legal. También tiene
oficinas en Los Angeles, Solana
Beach y el Condado Orange.
Fue un caso local que lanzó a
Gómez al escenario nacional,
apodado por los medios de
comunicación, como el juicio
“American Beauty Murder”, el
servicio no se trata de
política o diplomacia, sino de
darle de comer a quienes
tienen hambre. Cuando
inmigrantes se han caído del
tren, Las Patronas les ofrecen
hospedaje hasta que de
nuevo se dirigen hacia el
norte, cuando algunos
resultan heridos, ellas
encuentran asistencia
médica y dentro de sus
posibilidades, cuidan a los
desconocidos quienes no
siempre hablan español.
El proceso no ha sido fácil,
Las Patronas también
dudaron sobre la legalidad
de su caridad y cuestionaron
si el ayudar a inmigrantes
centroamericanos, en su
mayoría de El Salvador y
Honduras, es legal en
México. Querían ayudar,
pero no meterse en problemas al hacerlo.
“Teníamos miedo”, explica
caso se enfocó en Kristen
Rossum, una toxicóloga joven
del Condado de San Diego, en
noviembre del 2000, fue
sentenciada a cadena perpetua
por asesinar a su marido con
un narcótico que se robó del
Departamento Forense del
Condado en donde trabajaba.
Gómez encabezó y ganó el caso
contra Rossum, pero también
demandó al Condado por
haber contratado a Rossum,
quien había sido una adicta.
En total, se le pagó $106
millones de dólares a la familia
de la víctima.
También está la demanda
conocida a nivel nacional como
“Runaway Lexus”, la cual
resultó en la muerte del agente
Mark Saylor de 45, su esposa,
hija y su cuñado. Gómez logró
un acuerdo de $10 millones de
dólares para las víctimas del
accidente del auto.
Pero ante tanto éxito,
también surge la responsabi-
Romero, “No sabíamos que
era legal o ilegal, hubo
quienes intentaron intimidarnos, nos informamos y
resulta que sí tenemos el
derecho de ayudarlos”.
El tema del abuso también
ha salido a relucir, México no
siempre le ha dado la
bienvenida a inmigrantes
centroamericanos, esto,
aunque su intención sea sólo
pasar por el país rumbo a los
Estados Unidos. En algunas
ocasiones, Las Patronas han
sido testigos del abuso de
poder de autoridades
migratorias mexicanas,
desde insultos , robos y hasta
violencia.
“Empezamos a preguntar”,
cuenta Romero “Veíamos que
a veces la policía municipal
les robaba dinero a los
inmigrantes, después nos
explicaron que la policía
municipal, sí tiene derecho a
redadas y detenciones, pero
no del abuso de poder”.
Mientras el tren pasa por
ese pequeño pueblo La
Patrona, Amatlán, Veracruz.
Las Patronas siguen dando
de comer a quienes están a
bordo, la llamada ‘Bestia’ se
ha convertido en un símbolo,
es un tren que va hacia
adelante, pero también deja
a muchos atrás, puede
encaminar a inmigrantes
hacia una vida mejor, pero
también los puede matar,
irónicamente el documental
recalca como algunas de Las
Patronas que ayudan a estos
inmigrantes, también sueñan
con un futuro más prometedor. Ellas también han
considerado dejarlo todo en
busca de algo mejor en los
Estados Unidos, y tienen un
recordatorio que literalmente
pasa a diario.
Una muchacha jóven,
quien forma parte de Las
Patronas, sale en la película
llorando, explicando que en
su pueblo no hay trabajo,
oportunidades o futuro.
“En el norte dice con
lágrimas en los ojos, que
puede darles una mejor vida
a sus hijos”.
A pesar de tener poco
dinero, Las Patronas nunca
han dejado de ayudar y
cocinar para los inmigrantes.
Algunas universidades y
grupos independientes le han
dado donativos al grupo para
que sigan con su misión, a lo
largo de los años, Las
Patronas le han dado de
comer a miles de inmigrantes
desconocidos, de vez en
cuando reciben una llamada
de quienes llegaron con éxito
a los Estados Unidos.
Llaman, para dar las
gracias….
lidad de mantener la
humildad.
“Siempre existe la posibilidad de que la arrogancia le
gane a los abogados, porque
son los que están dirigiendo las
cosas”, asegura Gómez “Pero
aunque se crean lo máximo, un
buen abogado tiene que ser
genuinamente humilde porque
a un jurado fácilmente puede
descartar a un abogado
arrogante”.
Gómez es un experto en el
campo legal, pero de vez en
cuando surge un poco de
superstición. Cuando encabeza
un juicio tiene una lista de
reglas sobreimpuestas que
siempre sigue, por ejemplo: Si
ve un indigente en la calle
mientras se dirige a la corte,
siempre le dá limosna, siempre
respeta los semáforos peatonales y no se cruza en rojo, y
más curioso aún, nunca usa
lentes de sol durante un juicio.
“Los lentes de sol pueden dar
desconfianza, dice Gómez con
una sonrisa”.
Aparte de asistir a la iglesia
“The Rock Church”, el ayudar a
la comunidad local también es
algo clave para el abogado, es
una responsabilidad a la que se
siente muy allegado, sobre
todo por los desafíos que vivió
de niño.
Apoya entre otros, al
Community Athletic Center de
National City, un gimnasio de
boxeo, donde en su mayoría
acuden niños del sur del
Condado, Barrio Logan y
Shelltown, “Padres de familia
que no tienen suficiente
dinero, pero que desean sacar
a sus hijos de un ambiente
negativo, deben recurrir a este
centro”, dice Gómez “Sobre
todo si se trata de jóvenes que
sufren de sobrepeso y de baja
autoestima”.
En cuanto al tema de la
inmigración, Gómez reconoce
que la mayoría de las familias
indocumentadas no contratan
servicios legales por miedo a
ser deportados o sancionados
por su estatus legal, pero
cuando se trata de ayudar a
víctimas, dice Gómez “El
estatus migratorio queda en
segundo plano”.
“La ley de este país está
diseñada para proveer protección a todos, pero sólo si
quienes han sido discriminados o tratados injustamente
dan a conocer su situación, o
le piden a alguien que abogue
por ellos”, dice Gómez.
Qué sigue para el abogado
con más éxito en San Diego?,
Gómez dice: “No me interesa
ser juez o postularme para un
puesto político, por ahora, me
interesa colaborar más con mi
iglesia, estar saludable, ser un
buen jefe de esta firma de
abogados y un buen padre
para mis hijos”.

This is a race in memory of two local teenage girls, Chelsea King and Amber DuBois, who went missing right in our backyard
in 2009 and 2010 respectively. This was a tragedy that hit too close to home and will be impossible to forget for the families of
these two girls and the San Diego community.
The King family managed
to bring something positive
out of this irreparable loss
and managed to bring forth
stricter laws against sexual
predators (Chelsea’s Law) and
the Sunflower Scholarship
Fund which benefits
outstanding students. We can
only hope that our community never has to bear the loss
of any of our children to such
tragedy ever again.
If you are free this Saturday,
be sure to stop by and support
the King Family and finish
what should have been a
routine run for Chelsea before
her life was taken six years
ago.
Here is a message from
the family:
“When our daughter
Chelsea went missing, and we
learned the terrible truth of
our loss, we struggled to find
air to breathe. Today, we are
able to see with such clarity
the people that provided us
our oxygen during our crisis.
It’s because of your response
to our crisis that we were able
to find the strength to choose
hope. It’s because of your
engagement that our state
now has the strongest laws in
the Country protecting our
9.3 million California children from known violent
predators and we are
expanding to other states. It’s
because of your support that
we are able to recognize and
honor phenomenal young
changemakers with college
scholarships. We invite you
join us and thank you for
continuing to help Chelsea’s
Light shine.”

Rummage Sale for Charity is Coming Soon!
BY MARIO A. CORTEZ
FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE SALE,
PLEASE VISIT THETHURSDAYCLUB.ORG.
Get your cash ready because
the largest rummage sale in
San Diego is coming soon!
The Thursday Club, a local
non profit organization
promoting educational,
cultural, moral and civic
activities, is hosting their
massive sale next weekend at
the Balboa Park Activity
Center for the 89th time.
Leslie Pedersen of The
Thursday Club, spoke with La
Prensa San Diego about the
organization and about the
upcoming sale.
“The Thursday Club is a
nonprofit organization that
was formed in 1921 by four
young women who wanted to
combine social and civic
activities with benevolent
projects. Our purpose is to
promote educational, cultural,
social, moral and civic
activities,” Petersen shared.
With 300 women of all ages
as active volunteers, The
Thursday Club works hard
year round in order to
organize their massive
rummage sale which has
raised more than $3 million
dollars for worthy causes in
San Diego over the years.
For the upcoming sale, The
Thursday Club has the
ambitious goal of raising over
$130,000 for numerous local
charities in the region.
Numerous items in gently
used condition will be
available for sale. Attendees
can expect to find furniture,
housewares, electronics,
holiday decorations, clothing,
art, bicycles, books and many
more items for sale spanning
the 10,000 square feet of the
Balboa Park Activity Center.
“After all of our expenses

Because the Rummage Sale is

community beneficiaries. We
also try to have a wide range
of recipient organizations. We
try to help organizations
aiding causes ranging from
children to the elderly, health,
veterans, arts, life skills,
animals, nature and education,” Pedersen continued.
Beneficiaries of the sale
include community organiza-
tions such as MANA de San

Veterans Museum at Balboa

Tender Loving Canines
Assistance Dogs and the
Travis Manion Foundation
among many more great local
causes.
The sale will be held on the

rummage donations starting
on Sunday March 6 and
Monday March 7 from 10 a.m.

follows:
SATURDAY, MARCH 5
Tottenham (54 pts.) vs.
Arsenal (51 pts.),
7:30AM/6:30C/4:30P on
NBC UNIVERSO with Andrés
Cantor and Manuel Sol. A key
match for the Spurs after tying
in mid-week against Leicester
City. If they prevail over
Arsenal and the Foxes lose
their own match, Tottenham
could take the league in the
tournament based on goal
difference, but Arsenal is
Manchester City (47) vs.
Aston Villa (16),
9:45AM/8:45C/6:45P on NBC

After falling to Liverpool
earlier this week, the Citizens
are eager for the three points
up for grabs in Saturday’s
match against Aston Villa,
currently last in the rankings.
A win would also keep them
one step ahead of rival
Manchester United; the
Mancunian teams are tied for
points, but the Citizens lead in
goal difference.
Watford (37) vs. Leicester
City (57),
12:25PM/11:25C/9:25P, on
NBC UNIVERSO, with Copán
Álvarez and Carlos
Hermosillo. The season’s big
surprise, first-place Leicester
City tied its mid-week game
against West Brom.
Fortunately for the Foxes,
their closest competitors
failed to gain any points,
leaving the first three spots in
the ranking practically
unchanged. A win over
Watford, combined with a
potential Arsenal victory over
Tottenham, would put them a
comfortable six points ahead
of second and third place.

EL CUBANO VIENE A LLENAR EL HUECO
EN LAS PARADAS CORTAS DE LOS PADRES.
POR LEÓN BRAVO
L
os Padres han tenido un
hueco muy grande en su
alineación defensiva, y
esperan que la llegada del
cubano Alexi Ramírez, sea
la solución al problema.
En siete temporadas, la escuadra
sandieguina ha utilizado a 18 jugadores
diferentes, en la posición de short stop.
Ese número, sólo muestra la inconsistencia que el club ha tenido en lo
que se considera la posición más
importante dentro del cuadro
defensivo.
En un intento por remediar la
situación, los Padres contrataron a
Ramírez, un experimentado pelotero
que desde 2008, llegó a las grandes
ligas con el equipo de los Medias
Blancas de Chicago.
“Estoy contento y agradecido por la
oportunidad que me están dando en
San Diego”, dijo Ramírez, quien firmó
un contrato de un año, y tres millones
de dólares con los Padres.
“Estoy emocionado, vengo a dar el
cien por ciento en cada juego”. Apuntó
el torpedero cubano de 34años de edad.
Los Padres se interesaron por
Ramírez, porque a pesar de ser un
veterano, ha participado en al menos
154 juegos en cada una de las últimas
seis campañas.
Además, el desenvolvimiento ofensivo de Ramírez durante la segunda
mitad del 2015, fue prometedor al tener
un promedio de bateo de .277 ocho
cuadrangulares y 35 carreras empujadas en 70 encuentros.
Ocupar la posición de short stop de
tiempo completo, será algo nuevo para
Alexi, quien durante su carrera ha
alternado entre la segunda y tercera
base.
“Alexi es un buen jugador que ha
mostrado gran interés en trabajar
fuerte, para mejorar sus aptitudes como
parador en corto”, dijo el mánager de
los Padres, Andy Green.
Alexi llegó al campo de entrenamiento de los Padres en Arizona, dos
días antes de que se abrieran las
prácticas formales, y esa es una clara
indicación de que está dispuesto a
aprender lo antes posible los secretos
de las paradas cortas.
“Estoy muy feliz, estoy aquí para
ayudar al equipo y también estoy aquí
para ganar”, afirmó el pelotero.

LA PERSPECTIVA DE SER LA

LAS PARADAS CORTAS.
EL EQUIPO DE XOLOS PREPARA SUS ARMAS PARA RECIBIR AL LEÓN EN EL ESTADIO CALIENTE EN LA JORNADA NUEVE DEL TORNEO. CORTESÍA/CLUB TIJUANA
POR LEÓN BRAVO
El torneo Clausura 2016 de
la Liga MX, ya rebasó la
mitad del camino y el saldo
que ha entregado Miguel
Herrera al frente de los Xolos
de Tijuana no es bueno.
En lo que va de la
campaña, el cuadro fronterizo suma 11 puntos de los
24 que ha disputado, para de
esa manera ocupar el octavo
lugar en la tabla general.
Esos números significan
que, Herrera ha ganado el 46
por ciento de los puntos en
disputa, un porcentaje muy
por debajo del 75 por ciento
que Antonio Mohamed ha
logrado como entrenador de
los Rayados de Monterrey.
Xolos no ha podido ganar
en su perrera del Estadio
Caliente, en la que suma tres
empates y una derrota.
Como local, el cuadro del
“Piojo”” Herrera no ha
podido anotar más de un gol
en cada uno de sus partidos
para sumar un total de cuatro
anotaciones a favor por seis
en contra.
De visita, el equipo de
Xolos suma dos triunfos y
dos empates con seis goles a
favor y cuatro en contra.
Más allá de los números, el
funcionamiento de club
tijuanense no ha sido el
esperado.
Herrera todavía no
encuentra la manera de
imprimirle dinamismo y
rapidez a su ataque, un sello
que lo llevó a grandes alturas
como técnico de las Águilas
del América.
A Xolos se le dificulta
generar llegadas de peligro al
área enemiga, sobre todo en
el césped artificial del
Estadio Caliente.
El punto brillante del
equipo de Tijuana en esta
primera mitad del torneo, ha
sido el rendimiento del
delantero colombiano, Dayro
Moreno.
El artillero sudamericano
suma cinco anotaciones, y se
encuentra a tres goles del
actual líder en ese rubro, el
francés Andre Pierre Gignac,
de Tigres.
El viernes Xolos tendrá
una nueva oportunidad de
buscar su primer triunfo en
casa, cuando reciba la visita
del Léon.
Los Panzas Verdes llegan a
este juego, arrastrando una
dolorosa derrota de 3-, que
sufrieron en su estadio ante
Jaguares de Chiapas.
León, ahora de la mano de
Luis Fernando Tena, ocupa el
tercer lugar de la tabla
general con 15 puntos.
Tijuana y León se han
enfrentado en 11 ocasiones,
con un saldo de seis triunfos
y cinco derrotas en favor del
cuadro de Xolos.

“In fact, I have three

“They abuse their

those people who will speak

People are left with a

a deep humiliation after

treatment, a Tijuana-San

program to protect these
travelers’ human rights.
“The Southern Border
Communities Coalition has a
program that consists of a
phone number people can
call if they feel their rights
were violated at a port of
entry. We have seen how
Border Patrol and Port of
Entry officers can use their
power in violation of human
values. Since CBP is
unwilling to provide data, we
have to collect it. We need
people to not remain quiet
when they are treated
disrespectfully by border
agents,” explained ACLU
spokesperson Ana Castro.
Mexican authorities have
expressed that, just like
Tijuana police officers have
been provided sensitivity

better serve foreign visitors,
the U.S. should take similar
measures in light of the huge

Rossum stole the narcotic

Gomez also led the so
called ‘Runaway Lexus’ case,
which resulted in the deaths

settlement was followed by a
massive recall.
But with so much success,

That includes a conscious
effort of staying humble.
More than just a ‘feel good’

in check, is also a practical
tool in the courtroom.
“There is always the
possibility or threat of

might think they’re the big
shot, but a good trial lawyer
has to be genuinely humble

lot of money and who want to
get their kids in a positive
environment, this is the
place,” says Gomez. “It’s
great. It can also help
overweight kids who have
issues with self esteem and
dieting.”
When it comes to low
profile cases, Gomez recognizes that reaching out to
lawyers is a problem for
many undocumented families. The fear of being turned
over to immigration authorities, often trumps their desire
for justice.
“The law is intended to
provide equal protection for
everyone. That can only
happen if people who suffer
harm, discrimination or
unjust treatment, find
someone who can stick up for
them,” he says. “Regardless of
who you are, if you are in this
country you should not suffer
treatment that is illegal or
unjust.”
So what’s next for one of
the best trial lawyers in San
Diego? Gomez says he is not
interested in being a judge or
running for office. For now,
he says it’s all about “my
contributions to my church,
staying healthy, being a great
leader of a law firm and being
a great dad.”

Las Patronas: Feeding Migrants one Train at a Time
BY KATIA LÓPEZ-HODOYÁN
From a small rugged town
in the Mexican state of
Veracruz, a group of women,
young and old, are shedding
light on a different, often
overlooked side of immigration. They are called ‘Las
Patronas,’ which makes
reference to the name of the
town they live in. Every day,
they help hundreds of
complete strangers who pass
by on a freight train, known
as ‘La Bestia’ or ‘The Beast.’
They don’t know these
people’s names, age or
nationality. The only thing
they know is that the Central
American migrants are
passing through Mexico and
heading north, hoping to
make it to the U.S. Their
interaction lasts only a few
seconds: They lock eyes. The
migrants stretch out their
arms from the moving train
and Las Patronas, almost
instinctively, start tossing
bottles of water and bags
filled with rice, beans and
tortillas. There’s no conversation, but the entire exchange
speaks volumes.
A film titled “All of Me,”
delves into the lives of these
women, showing how despite
being uneducated, poor and
marginalized, they are also
strong, devoted and
inspiring.
The University of San
Diego’s Trans-Border
Institute invited the film’s
producer and one of the
Patronas on campus, for a
screening of the film and
lecture on February 25th.
“It started off as something
small,” says Mariela Najero
Romero, one of the roughly
14 Patronas who make up the
group. “It really came out of
nowhere, but now it has
become something big.”
It was back in 1995, when
one of the founders, Norma
Romero Vasquez, says
migrants walking through
the railway tracks asked her
for food. She helped and
eventually reached out to her
family and neighbors, young
and old, to chip in. Years
passed, and as the number of
migrants grew, so did the
contributions of Las
Patronas. Despite their own
economic hardships, the
group continues to prepare
warm meals for the migrants
day in and day out. They
cook for hours and wait
patiently for the train to pass,
while still wearing an apron.
Twenty one years later, Las
Patronas have won awards
and garnered international
attention for their voluntary
work. They do everything for
free. Their only compensation is knowing they are
helping those in need.
“I understand there are
good and bad people on that
train,” says Romero as she
speaks at USD. “But it’s not
my place to judge them.
That’s up to God.”
While governments and
politicians highlight all the
problems with the immigration system, Las Patronas
focus on the basics. Their
mission is not about politics
or even diplomacy. On the
contrary, they simply see
hungry people and feed
them. When migrants fall off
the train and can’t manage to
get back on, Las Patronas
offer them a place to stay,
until they try their luck again
and head north. When
migrants get injured, they
find medical assistance and
care for them as best they
can.
But there have been doubts
along the way. There came a
point when Las Patronas
didn’t know if helping these
migrants, mostly from El
Salvador and Honduras, was
legal in Mexico. They wanted
to help, but they didn’t want
to get in trouble doing so.
“We were afraid,” says
Romero. “We didn’t know
what was legal and what
wasn’t. There were groups
who were trying to intimidate us. We got informed.
Turns out, we do have the
right to help them.”
The issue of abuse has also
been an issue. Mexico has a
reputation for not always
being welcoming to Central
American migrants, even if
their intention is to simply
pass through the country.

ENGLISH P.1
Delincuentes Por Accidente
POR ESTEPHANIA BAEZ
Es la frontera más transitada del mundo, con un
cruce diario de más de 60 mil
usuarios entre vehículos y
peatones, autoridades
migratorias, cuentan con un
sistema operativo de primer
nivel, en donde almacenan la
información de cada uno de
los ciudadanos que ingresa a
su país, tal y como nombres,
huellas digitales, fechas de
nacimiento, fotografías y
hasta el historial de cada
individuo.
“Los individuos potenciales
que tienen una orden de
aprehensión, los identificamos mediante el sistema, el
oficial utiliza toda la información que tenga de él, en el
sistema, habla con cada
individuo y en base a esa
información, él podría referir
a alguien a inspección
secundaria, ya sea para una
verificación de sus documentos, si los documentos
son apropiados, si tienen el
estatus apropiado para
ingresar a los Estados
Unidos, si hay una violación
potencial, si se trata de
contrabandistas ingresando a
la Unión Americana”.
Destacó Sydney Aki,
Director General del Puerto
de Entrada de San Ysidro y
Otay Mess
Sin embargo, a pesar de
contar con tecnología de
primera, la Agencia de
Aduanas y Protección
Fronteriza, ha cometido
errores, pues son cientos de
usuarios los que manifiestan
haber sido confundidos con
criminales, y aseguran haber
pasado el peor momento de
sus vidas.
“Me bajan, me esposan y se
llevan mi carro a revisar, sin
decirme nada, me llevan a un
separo. Me detuvieron un par
de horas, me sacaron huellas
digitales, checaron mi
identificación, todo el
proceso que ellos ejecutan, y
a final de cuentas resulta que
no soy al que buscaban. De
hecho tengo tres amigos que
se llaman igual que yo, y
también les ha sucedido lo
mismo. “ Platicó a La Prensa
Jorge García, un ciudadano
que reside en San Diego y
quien fue Víctima de los
Agentes Aduanales de CBP.
“Abusan de su autoridad, y
no lo tratan a uno como lo
deberían de tratar, como
persona, al ser humano, la
verdad yo si soy de las que
protesto, de hecho me dice
mi esposo “te van a quitar la
visa”, pero no pasa de que me
la quiten y ya, porque
tenemos nuestros derechos y
si nos dejamos con más razón
abusan.” Manifestó Cecilia
Zavala, una ciudadana que
cruza casi diariamente hacia
la Unión Americana.
Y es que dentro de su labor
de detectar e identificar el
flujo de drogas ilegales u
otros artículos de contrabando hacia Estados Unidos,
refuerzan sus operativos que
pueden consistir desde un
extenso interrogatorio, hasta
la inspección de las partes
íntimas de una persona.
Rabia, coraje, impotencia y
sobre todo un profundo
sentimiento de humillación,
es el sabor de boca que
sienten estos usuarios, al
haber sido tratados de
manera tan despectiva a
decir de ellos. Por ello, existe
un programa que protege sus
derechos humanos, se trata
de un programa implementado por activistas de la
región Tijuana –San Diego.
“Hay un proyecto que ha
lanzado una Organización, la
Southern Border Community
Coalition, acerca de un
número de teléfono, al que
puedan llamar las personas,
si sienten que les han
violado sus derechos en las
garitas. Estos agentes de la
patrulla fronteriza, y en la
garita, Hemos visto que la
manera en que ellos ejercen
su poder a veces va en contra
de los valores. Como la CBP
no quiere dar estos datos,
nosotros los tenemos que
recopilar y necesitamos que
la comunidad no se quede en
silencio. Si ve que se les trata
indignamente por la patrulla
fronteriza.” Explicó Ana
Castro, quien funge como
vocera de la Unión
Americana de las Libertades
Civiles.
Por otra parte, autoridades
mexicanas establecieron que,
así como se han implementado programas de
sensibilización y capacitación
a policías municipales de
Tijuana, para brindar mayor
y mejor servicio que requiere
la comunidad para dar
atención a visitantes extranjeros, exigen que se deben
tomar medidas similares en
territorio norteamericano, ya
que el número de quejas que
les llegan de parte de
usuarios que cruzaron la
frontera es considerablemente elevado.
Una nación de primer
mundo, con fallas
tecnológicas que según
defensores de los derechos de
los migrantes los colocan en
el tercer mundo.

Patronas have witnessed
cases where immigration
officials have abused their
authority by targeting
Central American migrants.
It can range from insults to
stealing money and even
violence.
“When we started asking
questions,” explains Romero,
“We learned that the local
police does have the power to
conduct raids and detain the
migrants. But what they
cannot do, is abuse their
power.”
So as the train continues to
pass through the town, Las
Patronas continue to feed
those on board. The train,
The Beast as it’s called, has
turned into a symbol of sorts.
It’s moving forward, but it
also leaves people behind. It
can lead migrants to a better
life, but it can also kill them.
Ironically, the film shows
how some of the women who
help these migrants heading
north, also have their own
hopes of maybe one day
making the same journey to
the U.S.
The film shows a young
Patrona crying, as she
explains that there are
virtually no opportunities or
jobs in her town. At least, up
north, she cries, she and her
kids can have a better future.
Money is tight, but they’ve
never stopped giving out
meals. A few non-profits and
Mexican universities have
chipped in with donations so
the group can continue to
feed passing migrants. Over
the years they’ve fed thousands of perfect strangers.
Every now and then, they get
a phone call from some of the
migrants who made it
successfully to the U.S. They
just call to say ‘thank you.’

TELEMUNDO
CONTINUED FROM P.8
Pachuca (17) vs. Dorados
(3), 9PM/8C/6P, on NBC
UNIVERSO, with Andrés
Cantor and Carlos Hermosillo.
Of the three teams fighting for
the lead in the Liga MX
standings, Pachuca has the
easiest task ahead of it in
Week 9, at least on paper.
After winning their away
game against Toluca last week,
the “Tuzos” are poised to take
advantage of a weak rival to
cement their hold on first
place, depending on the
results obtained by rivals
Monterrey and León. It will
also be a good chance for
Franco Jara, who has scored
five times in the tournament
so far, to catch up to the
league’s top scorer, Andre-
Pierre Gignac, who leads by
three.
Sunday, March 6
Week 29 of the Liga Premier
continues
Crystal Palace (33) vs.
Liverpool (41),
8:25AM/7:25C/5:25P, on
TELEMUNDO, with Andrés
Cantor and Manuel Sol. Fresh
from its 3-0 victory over
Manchester City last week,
Liverpool is eager to keep
accumulating the points it
needs to secure a spot in next
season’s European cups.
West Brom (36) vs.
Manchester United (47),
10:30AM/9:30C/7:30P,
