I've been in line for more almost two hours and I'm nervous," said [Fernando Ruiz], a 43 year old auto mechanic in San Diego. "I've already gotten two warnings for being late to work. "If I could afford it, I would move back to San Diego," Ruiz said. "But it's just too expensive. So I have to live through these wait times on a daily basis. I lose two, three hours a day sitting inside my car, in the long lines at the border." "Waiting in line at the border on a daily basis creates a lot of frustration," she said. "That frustration, in turn, creates impotence, a feeling of not being in control of your time, a feeling that makes you feel like you're not in charge of your life anymore. It might even make you feel as if you are at the mercy of the wait times at the border."
Sara Ruiz, madre de una joven de 15 años que fue secuestrada y asesinada impunemente por sus captores, expresó que la violencia tiene las proporciones de un "monstruo sin control" y que Tijuana se ha transformado en una "copia burda de las autoridades de Ciudad Juárez". Un día después de la marcha en Tijuana, los marchantes continuaron su camino hacia el municipio de Tecate. Antes de partir, se reunieron con los medios de comunicación locales para realizar un breve recuento de su recorrido y expresar sus opiniones en torno a las actividades en Tijuana. No solamente llegamos a los tres niveles de gobierno, también llegamos a la línea fronteriza, donde enérgicamente le pedimos a Estados Unidos que cumpla con su parte, porque sabemos que las cabecillas de las bandas delictivas de Tijuana ...

While in the United States, Sen. Córdoba spoke with representatives of the NAACP and TransAfrica and asked them to support her organization's push for peace in Colombia. The senator's group, Colombianos por la Paz, has recently faced obstacles from the Colombian media because they are so steadfast in their push for peace. Said Sen. Córdoba: "We are being labeled as terrorists by the government, but we've been able to instill in Colombians the idea that we cannot live in peace while some 50,000 people have disappeared or while some 6 million people have been displaced from their lands. Our money is going to fund the war instead of building schools or hospitals. We've gotten people to understand that we should at least have a dialogue about this.

Ruiz will speak on "Remember the Mexican Revolution," while [Kathleen Bruhn] will discuss "The Ghost of Pancho Villa: The Contemporary Relevance of the Mexican Revolution"; and [Alex Saragoza] will address "Cross-Border Meanings of the Mexican Revolution. The imposition of a strong-armed dictatorship headed by Porfirio Díaz from 1877 to 1910 opened Mexico to foreign economic control. This influence only exacerbated Mexico's disunity, he continued. The Mexican Revolution of 1910 not only successfully overthrew the Díaz dictatorship, but promoted a national identity centered on Mexico's mestizo, or mixed population and culture, as well as revived appreciation for its indigenous roots. Despite the violence and heavy loss of life, a more unified and nationalistic Mexico emerged following s...
En una conferencia de prensa conjunta, representantes del Frente Indígena de Organizaciones Binacionales (FIOB) en Los Ángeles, Fresno, San Diego y Santa María, en California, y en Tijuana, la ciudad de México y Oaxaca, hicieron un llamado a las autoridades mexicanas, y particularmente al gobernador de Oaxaca, Ulises Ruiz, para que generen las condiciones que permitan a dichos migrantes reincorporarse a sus comunidades de origen. Muchos oaxaqueños que trabajaban en la construcción han tenido que regresar a los campos. La cosecha de uva, por ejemplo, que por lo regular dura cuatro meses, esta vez duró cinco semanas, por toda la gente que trabajó ahí. Y no hay alternativa: en Los Ángeles acabamos de llegar al 7% de desempleo, no les va a ser fácil colocarse en otro lado", dijo. En México...
