Eduardo Reyes, candidate for Chula Vista schools board: “Education is my passion” By Pablo J. Sáinz Think about any educational level and Dr. Eduardo Reyes has worked there in one way or another. In his more than 22 years in education, he has worked in kinder through sixth grade, middle and high schools, adult education, Regional Occupational Program/Career Technical Education program, and at several colleges and universities. Now that Reyes is running for Seat 5 in the Chula Vista Elementary School District governing board in the November 4 elections, he said he will use all of that experience to bring a professional mindset to the table. Of the three candidates running for Seat 5, Reyes is the only one with real professional experience in education. “In addition to my 22 years of work experience in education, I have a doctorate degree in Educational Leadership, Educational Specialist degree in Education, and a master’s degree in Business Administration,” Reyes said. “The combination of these degrees allows me to have a deep understanding of the educational system and how we can best serve students.” He said that it is important to have board members who have vast experience in teaching and educational

administration because being a board member means serving students. “The ‘clients’ of school districts are children,” Reyes said. “When educating children, there is no margin of error. The goal is to successfully provide a quality education for all children. There needs to be people that know, understand, and have experience in education to be able to make the right decisions for students. Board members need to ask the right questions of the superintendent and provide meaningful feedback,” he added. ¸“Having worked as a classroo teacher and as a school administrator for many years this provides me with a ‘big picture’ vision of the needs of the district. However, I also know what is needed in the classroom, the everyday challenges teachers have, the needs of parents, and most importantly, I know how children learn and what they need to become successful,” Reyes said. The other two candidates are perennial candidate Willard “Doc” Howard, and Joshua Smith who list his profession as epidemiologist. Reyes warned that voters can’t risk electing someone with no professional background in education to the Chula (see Eduardo Reyes, page 8)

ACLU Lawsuit Settlement Staves Off Forced Deportations By Mark R. Day When American Civil Liberties Union attorneys began preparing a lawsuit in early 2013 to protect undocumented immigrants from being forced to sign voluntary departure papers by immigration officials, local immigration attorneys remarked that the idea was “crazy and unrealistic.” A year later, the ACLU won its victory in a class-action lawsuit, Lopez-Vanegas v. Johnson. It alleged that Border Patrol and Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials employed lies, deceptive and coercive practices to deport scores of immigrants who would have had strong claims to remain in the United States had they appeared before immigration judges. The ACLU attorneys, staff members and supporters celebrated their victory Oct. 25 with food, entertainment and an award presentation at San Diego’s Centro Cultural de la Raza. The lawsuit maintains that in order to convince immigrants to sign their own explusion papers, agents and officers “have intimidated and physically abused the plaintiffs, threatened to retaliate against their families, held them incommunicado, and presented them with false information.” Said attorney Anthony Stigler of Cooley, LLP, a partner in the lawsuit, “We expect that this lawsuit will lead to the cessation of these forced ‘voluntary departures’ and the reunification of the aggrieved individuals with their families.” Three of the nine plaintiffs in the lawsuit are Isadora Lopez-Vanegas, Samuel Nava, and Ana Maria

Duenas. Ms. Lopez-Vanegas and her autistic son were arrested by Border Patrol agents in 2011. The agents threatened that if she didn’t sign voluntary departure, she would be detained for several months and be separated from her son. Under this pressure she signed the “voluntary departure” form and she and her U.S. citizen son were expelled to Mexico. Samuel Nava is the husband of a U.S. citizen wife. He was arrested at traffic stop and taken to a Border Patrol station. Nava, too, was told that if he refused to sign he would be detained for months. The agents also misinformed him that he could obtain legal status through his fiancée, once in Mexico. The agents also made threats against Nava’s family. Under this pressure he signed “voluntary departure” and was expelled from the U.S. His fiancée was forced to leave and join Mr. Nava in Mexico, where they were married and have been living. Ana Maria Dueñas is the mother and grandmother of U.S. citizens. She was detained by Border Patrol agents while she was waiting for a bus in El Cajon. They told her she could not get relief from an immigration judge but that she could get legal status once in Mexico through her U.S. citizen children. Dueñas, like other immigrants, was told that if she refused to sign the form, she would be detained for two months—without informing her that she could be released on her own recognizance if she chose not to agree to “voluntary departure.” She signed the form and was expelled to Tijuana.

Los ex braceros y su apoyo al Dr. Mireles Por Abel Astorga Morales En un contexto nacional donde la violencia ha llegado a niveles escalofriantes, la represión se ha desatado, las manifestaciones endurecido y diversificado, y en general el descontento social se ha generalizado a raíz de hechos como los de Tlatlaya o Ayotzinapa, los ex braceros siguen manifestándose en México y solarizándose con diversas causas sociales. Desde el día 29 de septiembre el grupo de ex migrantes de Alianza Braceroproa liderado por Ventura Gutiérrez, iniciaron la “Caravana de Penal en Penal” con el objetivo de solidarizarse con el Dr. Mireles y los Auténticos Autodefensas. Esta movilización concluyó el día 13 de octubre con el arribo de decenas de ellos al Penal Federal Número 11, en Hermosillo, Sonora, con la pretensión de ver personalmente a los autodefensas encarcelados. Como se sabe, el día 28 de junio Fuerzas federales y elementos del gobierno de Michoacán, detuvieron a 83 personas en el Municipio de Lázaro Cárdenas, entre ellas a José Manuel Mireles Valverde, ex vocero y uno de los fundadores y líderes de los grupos de autodefensa en ese estado, hoy trasformados en la Fuerza Rural Estatal. Tras su detención, fueron puestos a la disposición del Ministerio Público de la ciudad de Morelia, y posteriormente enviados al Penal de Hermosillo. A Mireles y los demás detenidos se les intentó imputar cargos de portación de armas de fuego de uso exclusivo del ejército y delincuencia organizada, así como su posible participación en homicidios. Cuestiones que a decir de los ex braceros y otros grupos sociales, es falsa y más bien fue parte de una “invención” del Gobierno Federal Mexicano al advertir que el pueblo realmente puede organizarse para exigir sus derechos, y tratar de dar solución a las problemáticas que las autoridades no corrigen. La Caravana de Penal en Penal de Braceroproa inició el 29 de septiembre (Día Internacional del Bracero) con la manifestación afuera del Penal Mil Cumbres en Morelia, Michoacán, exigiendo la liberación de Mireles.

Tijuana Border Dump Generates More Controversy FRONTERA NORTESUR

An old landfill in the northern Mexican border city of Tijuana continues drawing binational scrutiny. In a recent meeting, San Diego City Councilman David Alvarez expressed concern to a Mexican counterpart that the closed El Jibarito dump site could endanger public health on both sides of the border. Felipe Ledezma, Tijuana city council member and president of the elected body’s environmental commission, said the possible run-off of contaminants from the dump in the direction of Playas de Tijuana and Imperial Beach in neighboring San Diego County was raised as an issue of concern. Beach pollution is among numerous environmental hazards traced to El Jibarito. Situated adjacent to several working-class neighborhoods, El

Jibarito was closed in 2002 but reopened in late 2013 by a private company operating under the new name Norbac until it was closed for business again last month. The waste facility has long been the target of protests waged by neighbors and the Agape group. Activists have documented 800 cases of sick people, mainly women and children, who’ve experienced allergies, cancers, reproductive disorders, birth defects, respiratory problems, and anencephaly, a condition in which a baby is born without parts of the brain and skull. Local residents blame the ailments on the dump. Ana Bella Aguilar, whose baby was born with anencephaly and died at birth when the mother was 18 years old, said she was in good health around the time of her pregnancy five

years ago when workers from the landfill moved machinery emitting strong odors only six feet from her home. “I would like to at least know what went on,” Bella said. Maria Cristina Guicho, a young resident who is now stricken with thyroid cancer, said a doctor’s instructions to move away from the dump are complicated by her inability to work, the lack of money, and higher living costs in other parts of Tijuana. “If I pay attention to her and don’t die of cancer, I could die of hunger,” Guicho contended. Albert Rivera, a pastor who works with residents opposed to the dump, assessed the environmental situation as grave. “We believe this is an environmental crime and somebody should go to jail,” Rivera demanded. Community activists assert

that their grievances have been answered with official neglect, bureaucratic foot-dragging and legal maneuvering. Recently, however, activists convinced Tijuana’s municipal traffic department to slap fines on a company that was subcontracted to transport trash to El Jibarito. But dozens of residents had much less luck with the legal system after they showed up in court to testify about the dump. They soon witnessed their case thrown out on a legal technicality because the complaint was filed against the company under its previous name. Norbac then obtained a legal order shielding the company from additional lawsuits. While the old dump still stands, some movement around the El Jibarito controversy is occurring in the different branches of the Mexican government. The Tijuana municipal gov-

ernment is attempting to determine who was responsible for allowing the dump site to reopen last year without an environmental impact study and proper land use permit. In a separate probe, the Federal Attorney General for Environmental Protection is investigating the exact nature of contamination at El Jibarito. Tijuana City Councilman Felipe Ledezma favors a permanent closure of the dump as well as an environmental remediation of the land. Baja California State Representative Fausto Gallardo has expressed a similar opinion on the matter.

Mexico’s Days of Love and Rage FRONTERA NORTESUR

Editor’s Note: Given the gravity of the events surrounding the government/ cartel killings and forced disappearances of students and civilians in Iguala, Mexico, on September 26 and 27 of this year, Frontera NorteSur is devoting special coverage to the growing repercussions of the Iguala Massacre, which some observers now compare in its possible impact on Mexican society to the 1968 student movement and Tlatelolco Massacre. The following is a summary of some of this past week’s major developments.

Public outrage over the police murders of six people and forced disappearances of 43 students from the Atoytzinapa rural teachers’ college in the southern Mexican state of Guerrero continued to snowball this past week. Parts of the Mexican Republic were virtually paralyzed by a 48-hour protest convened October 22-23 by student, labor, farmer, and social organizations. Significantly, actions ranging from the shut-down of university campuses and the takeover of government offices to the blockade of highways and international border crossings extended from the traditionally “politicized” zones of Mexico City and southern Mexico to many nooks and crannies of the country. The Mexican press reported actions in at least 18 of the nation’s 32 states, including usually less politically active entities like Colima and Nuevo Leon. On the evening of October (Vea Ex braceros, pag.8) 22, and for the third time this month, hundreds of people temporarily blockaded the Bridge La Prensa San Diego 651-C Third Avenue of the Americas between Chula Vista, CA 91910 Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, and Ph: (619) 425-7400 El Paso, Texas.

dents from the Saucillo school have been at the forefront of advancing the cause of the Guerrero students in Ciudad Juarez and other parts of Chihuahua state. Among numerous actions, an estimated 15,000 people demonstrated in Guadalajara, Jalisco, while 40,000 students joined in shutting down institutions of higher learning in the neighboring state of Zacatecas. For the first time in its 180-year history, students shuttered the University of Guanajuato Law School in protest. Meanwhile, in the southern border state of Chiapas, indigenous Zapatista communities lit candles for the Ayotzinapa students. In Mexico City, tens of thousands of students from public and private universities made up huge sections of a march through the capital city. “No violence, no violence,” chanted students from the University of Chapingo. “We’re witnessing the largest march of recent years, perhaps since the university movement of 1968,” wrote political analyst and Proceso columnist Jenaro Villamil. “It’s one without party affiliation, without electoral slogans and with a great indignation that is visible

on faces, on banners, on placards, in spray paintings, and with slogans that channel the anger in the direction of (President) Enrique Pena Nieto.” Interviewed prior to the march, an activist involved in the massive student strike for institutional democracy and accountability, public education and professional integrity still underway at Mexico City’s National Polytechnic Institute (IPN), voiced the heart-felt burst of solidarity with the Ayotzinapa students that is sweeping Mexican university campuses. “The rural teachers’ colleges and the IPN are sisters. What is happening to the (Ayotzinapa students) hits us in the guts; it’s family from the other side. We are linked. We were born as institutions for small farmers and workers. We share the same father, (President) Lazaro Cardenas,” said a female student identified as Magali. “One cannot think of these as isolated events. There are connections between the student teachers and the struggle of the Polytechnic…” In Guerrero the movement got a jump-start on the rest of the country as teachers, students and the citizenry in gen-

eral began occupying nearly two dozen city halls in different regions of the state early in the week. In Tixtla, thousands of people supported by armed members of the indigenous-led community police effectively took over the small city located near Ayotzinapa. By week’s end, protesters led by the Guerrero State Coordinator of Education Workers and Popular Guerrero Movement occupied Acapulco’s city hall for an “indefinite” time. On October 22, between 10,000 and 20,000 people demonstrated in Iguala, the scene of the September 26 crime, garnering enthusiastic support from the residents. A small group of young people broke away from the crowd and set Iguala’s city hall ablaze. Across Guerrero protesters demanded the safe return of the Ayotzinapa 43, punishment for the authors of killings and disappearances, medical attention for victims wounded in the September 26-27 attacks, and the ouster and trial of Guerrero Governor Angel Aguirre, whom protesters hold responsible for the violent circumstances prevailing in their state, now considered as the most violent place in the country.

As the week drew to a close, the protesters got part of their wish: Governor Aguirre announced he was requesting a leave of absence from office, in a move just short of outright resignation. “In this tragic scenario, I reject that the public debate should center on whether I remain as the governor in charge,” Aguirre said late Thursday, October 23. “The priority should be on continuing with the search for the missing young people.” Internationally, members of Mexico’s vast diaspora and supporters staged demonstrations for justice in London, Paris, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Madrid, Barcelona, Florence, Bogota, La Paz, Los Angeles, and other cities in at least 15 countries. On October 24, activists in Santa Cruz, California, plan a vigil for Ayotzinapa. But nearly a month after last month’s violence, it is still not confirmed if the dozens of charred corpses subsequently discovered in multiple, so-called “narco-graves” on the outskirts of Iguala belong to the missing Ayotzinapa students.

Eduardo Reyes, candidato a la mesa directiva de las escuelas de Chula Vista: “La educación es mi pasión” Por Pablo J. Sáinz Piense en cualquier nivel educativo y el Dr. Eduardo Reyes ha trabajado de una manera u otra en ese nivel. En sus más de 22 años en la educación, Reyes ha trabajado en escuelas desde kínder hasta sexto grado, en secundarias y high schools, en educación de adultos, en programas de carreras técnicas y en varios colegios comunitarios y universidades. Ahora que Reyes está contendiendo para el Puesto 5 de la mesa directiva del Distrito Escolar de Chula Vista en las elecciones del 4 de noviembre, dijo que va a usar toda esa experiencia para traer una mentalidad profesional a la mesa. De los tres candidatos que se postulan para el Puesto 5, Reyes es el único con experiencia profesional real en educación. “Además de mis 22 años de experiencia de trabajo en la educación, tengo un doctorado en Liderazgo Educativo, grado Especialista en Educación, y una maestría en Administración de Empresas”, dijo Reyes. “La combinación de estos títulos me permite tener un profundo conocimiento del sistema educativo y cómo podemos servir mejor a los estudiantes”. Dijo que es importante contar con miembros del consejo que tengan amplia experiencia en la enseñanza y la administración educativa, porque ser un miembro de la junta significa servir a los estudiantes. “Los ‘clientes’ de los distritos escolares son los niños”, dijo Reyes. “En la educación de los niños, no hay margen de error.

Friends of Humane Society of Tijuana By Mimi Pollack Animals don’t have nationalities. They will love you no matter who you are and where you come from. Unfortunately, humans’ treatment of animals varies greatly, depending on the country and culture. There are many strays and homeless animals in Mexico. The dogs and cats of Tijuana, Tecate and Northern Baja California, Mexico are lucky to have an organization here in San Diego, called Friends of Humane Society of Tijuana. This organization was founded to give direct support to the Humane Society of Tijuana and the same dedicated group of volunteers oversees both. Their mission is to promote the well being of the animals of Tijuana and Baja, including the more than 7,000 stray dogs, by setting up spay/ neuter clinics, “itchy/scratchy” clinics, giving assistance to people who rescue homeless dogs and cats, and programs to educate the public. Up until 2006, there was not even a Humane Society in Tijuana. That changed when Richard Massa, a retired dean and vice president of San Diego City College, Leticia Coto, a long time animal rights activist in Baja, and Alejandro Arias, a local lawyer, merged their vision and energies and founded the society. Leticia Coto is now the acting president. They do not have a building or shelter, but rather rely on dedicated fosters on both sides of the border who help them. All their clinics are also mobile which enables them to go around Tijuana and northern Baja, and to some of the poorer neighborhoods where there is a great need for their services. They want to foster

Hay una frustración justificada en nuestra comunidad. En estos últimos años hemos respondido al llamado a hacernos ciudadanos, a ejercer el voto, y a participar en los debates que afectan a nuestra comunidad, sobre todo en la reforma migratoria. Después de demostrar nuestro creciente poder electoral en el 2012, asentando que para llegar a la Casa Blanca se necesita el apoyo Latino, el Senado aprobó una propuesta bipartidista de reforma migratoria. Logramos un gran paso, y avanzamos a la Cámara de Representantes. Pero aun cuando había ahí un grupo bipartidista tratando de lograrla, los miembros extremistas de esa cámara amedrentaron al liderazgo republicano y bloquearon la reforma. Dado ese bloqueo, el presidente prometió utilizar su poder ejecutivo para traer alivio a nuestras comunidades, que están sufriendo el efecto de más de dos millones de deportaciones efectuadas por su administración. Pero después los amedrentados fueron un pequeño grupo de senadores Demócratas, que le pidieron al presidente esperar hasta después de las elecciones de noviembre. Y en eso estamos. En tiempos así, es fácil perderle la fe al sistema electoral y abandonarlo. Pero no lo hagas. Si algo nos enseña esta experiencia es que los políticos le hacen caso a las políticas del miedo, y es obvio que todavía no nos temen.

puedes votar, pásale el dato a tu familia y amistades. Esto se trata de nuestra comunidad, y todos podemos poner nuestro granito de arena para salir adelante. Acuérdate que en cada elección hay varios candidatos, y muchos de ellos, con tu apoyo, podrán competir contra quienes nos han hecho a un lado, del partido que sean. Pero sin tu participación, nos quedamos en las mismas. Cada año, casi un millón de jóvenes Latinos ciudadanos cumplirán 18 años y podrán registrarse y votar. Este noviembre, se espera que más de 7 millones de Latinos voten. Pero hay más de 12 millones de Latinos que podrían votar y no lo están haciendo. Trabajemos juntos para cambiar eso. Imagínate el miedo que les daría a los políticos votar contra nuestra comunidad, si todos los que podemos votamos este 4 de noviembre y en cada futura elección. El cambio tarda, pero empieza con cada uno de nosotros. No te quedes atrás.

Creen que no vamos a votar y exigir cuentas, o que nuestros números son pequeños en muchas contiendas por la cámara de representantes y el senado. Se les olvida que en estos tiempos, un número minúsculo de votantes puede determinar el resultado de una elección. Y por si acaso si seguimos votando, algunos políticos están tratando de obstaculizar el proceso de registración y de votar.

After 100 years, Neighborhood House Association remains “very true to its mission” By Pablo J. Sáinz The largest social services agency in San Diego County is culminating a year-long celebration of its centennial with an elegant and sophisticated event. Neighborhood House Association, which was founded in 1914, will have its 100 year black tie gala, Celebrating a Century of Service, on Saturday, November 8th, from 6 p.m. to 12 a.m., at the San Diego Convention Center, ballroom 20. The gala, which will serve as a major fundraising event, will gather community, civic and corporate leaders, to celebrate the agency’s century of success and community service. The Honorable James E. Clyburn, Representative of South Carolina’s 6th Congressional District will be the evening’s keynote speaker. Entertainment includes Jazz in Pink and CEO’s Rhythm Section. “This gala really wraps us a year of celebration,” said Rudolph A. Johnson III, NHA President and CEO. “It is the highlight of our year, celebrat-

ing our community service.” The centennial celebration kicked off back in January, when Neighborhood House Association held a ceremony at the Marston House Museum in Balboa Park. Community and business leaders came together to celebrate the agency’s achievements and commemorate the agency’s history and positive impact on the San Diego region. NHA also had other events during the year, including a Celebrity Chefs Table, a Celebrity Golf Tournament, and a Community Day of Service. For Johnson, these events reaffirmed NHA’s central role in promoting social justice and community service in San Diego County. “I think we had a very successful centennial celebration,” he said. “We were able to educate the public about the services we offer. Our clients were very enthusiastic during each event.” Founded in 1914 by a group of women, NHA began as a settlement house assisting Mexican and other immigrants in transitioning into the San Diego Community. NHA has been instrumental in support-

ing underserved communities throughout history’s most difficult periods, including the Mexican Revolution, the Great Depression and two World Wars. In early January, the California State Assembly recognized NHA for its 100 years of service. Although in a century NHA has grown into one of the largest human services organizations in San Diego providing service to more than 24,000 families each year, Johnson said that the agency hasn’t forgotten its roots. “We still make sure that it is an efficient operation that maintains its heart,” he said. Jacqueline Sherman-Rustin, NHA director of community affairs, said that the agency remains “very true to its mission” of serving others and promoting self-sufficiency. Johnson added that the founding mothers were ahead of their time by realizing that Mexican immigrants deserved the same rights and benefits as anybody else in San Diego. He said that about 40 to 45 percent of the people NHA serves is of Latino origin. With an annual operating

Además, en la medida de lo que podemos investigar, Reyes es el único candidato latino en esta contienda. Teniendo en cuenta que la mayoría de los estudiantes en el distrito es de origen latino, tiene sentido tener una perspectiva latina en el Puesto 5. “Uno de los elementos clave en la enseñanza es hacer la instrucción atractiva y relevante”, dijo Reyes. “Esto no puede suceder si las personas que toman decisiones no tienen ninguna conexión con la comunidad latina. CVESD tiene más del 60 por ciento de los padres latinos y estudiantes. Un porcentaje significativo de esta población se encuentra en el grupo de riesgo. Entiendo la cultura, las necesidades, los retos y oportunidades de esta población y estoy comprometido a continuar prestando apoyo a la comunidad latina y las demás poblaciones en situación de riesgo con el fin de cerrar la brecha en el

rendimiento”. Reyes, quien actualmente trabaja como director de un centro / escuela secundaria alternativa, ha sido respaldado por los sindicatos de maestros y empleados clasificados y por muchos educadores y funcionarios electos de todo el condado de San Diego. Reyes dijo que estos “avales significan confianza” porque “a lo largo de mi carrera he sido capaz de ganarme la confianza de un sinnúmero de personas y organizaciones para este trabajo. Significa que estoy en condiciones de trabajar y colaborar con los demás y que valoro la entrada de todas las partes interesadas”. En relación con el reciente acuerdo de contrato entre el sindicato de maestros y el distrito escolar, Reyes dijo que se trata de “ reconstrucción de la confianza en todos los lados”. “Es importante para mejorar la moral de los maestros y padres de familia. Un componente importante de la reconstrucción de la confianza es respetar a los maestros. Me he comprometido a escuchar activamente a todas las partes interesadas e incluir a los maestros, padres y miembros de la comunidad”, dijo.

San Ysidro School District to Receive Golden Bell Award The San Ysidro School District is being honored with a Golden Bell Award from the California School Boards Association. The award honors exemplary programs that highlight best practices in school governance, teaching and student learning. San Ysidro’s Viva la Girl program is a character education gender-responsive program where girls interact with positive peer and adult female role models. Viva la Girl focuses on social-emotional well-being by empowering girls to see past socio-economic boundaries, stereotypes, and gender roles, to show them that personal and professional goals are attainable if they work hard, stay positive, and have confidence in themselves. Interim Superintendent Cameron states, “We couldn’t be more proud of our staff and their commitment toward making this a model program that truly changes attitudes and feelings of self-worth.” The program is entering into its fourth year in the K-8th grade school district in San Ysidro, California.‘

Nov 4 is Election Day, will you vote?

M

any of the issues that face the Hispanic community: immigration, border security, racist public policy, education, housing, employment, all these and more and can be addressed on election day if Hispanic voters get out and vote! When Hispanics show up at the polls, politicians will have to sit up and take notice and take into account their relationship with the Hispanic community. If the Hispanic community in Escondido comes out and votes, that city would not respond to that community with stepped up ICE patrolling or police checkpoints targeting the Hispanic community. The draconian political actions taking place in Arizona, police stops, elimination of Chicano Studies and the banning of certain books, would not occur. There would be a political price to pay for anti-Hispanic policies. We have all talked about and continue to talk about the importance of voting. The block of Hispanic voters is much

sought after and can swing an election. The fear is that someday this block of voters will actually come out and vote! But as a community, the sad fact is that we do not vote. Since 1986 the Hispanic voter turnout has dropped from 38% to 31% in 2010. Blacks vote at a 44% rate and Whites vote 49% of the time. In 2010 there were 6.6 million voters out of 21.3 million eligible voters. Yet despite the low percentage, it was still a record number of Hispanic voters due to population increases. In 2014 there are 24.8 million eligible voters. If the Hispanics come out and vote at a rate equal to the Black voter that would equal 11 million voters. That would cause a seismic shift in attitudes and public policy toward the Hispanic community. But nothing much will change if the Hispanic voter choses to stay home and not cast their vote on Nov. 4. The ball is in the hands of you, the voter. What are you going to do?

Prop. B circumvents Democracy City of Chula Vista, Proposition B: City Council Vacancies Shall the City Charter be amended so that, if a City Council seat becomes vacant with more than 12 months and less than 25 months remaining in the term, the Council may fill the vacancy by appointment or call a special election; and so that in any special election to fill a vacancy, a candidate receiving over 50% of votes cast is deemed the winner with no run-off required?

P

rop B is one of those propositions that started out as a good idea and instead of stopping there, with the good idea, the politicians had to go and ruin the whole thing by adding on more than what was needed. The good idea part of this proposition was that when filling a vacant city council seat by special election, the ruling of a manditory runoff is scrapped if a candidate receives 50% of the votes cast. What this would do is eliminate the need for a runoff between the two top vote getters. This part would save the city hundreds of thousands of dollars. If the city council had stopped at this point, Prop B would have been a good proposition. But no they had to go and add more changes to the city charter. At present a vacant city council seat can be filled by appoint if there is less than 12 months left in the term. If there is more than 12 months left in a term,

CORRECTION: In our October 24 editorial about John McCann and Steve Padilla endorsement we made several factual errors that we would like to correct: We stated that John McCann went to Texas to interview Jesus Gandara for the Sweetwater Superintendent post. McCann did not. He was not yet elected to the school board. We in-correctly stated that Gandara was fired by the McCann led board after criminal charges had been filled. Gandara was fired before the investigations or criminal charges had been filed. The point we were trying to make was that Gandara should have been fired for cause

2014: ¿otra paliza para los demócratas? El presidente Barack Obama, doblando la curva de su último periodo presidencial, no figura directamente en ninguna boleta de las elecciones intermedias del 4 de noviembre, pero afectará los resultados en varias de las reñidas contiendas que determinarán si los demócratas mantienen o pierden el control del Senado. Al presente los demócratas tienen la mayoría del Senado con 55 escaños, incluyendo los dos independientes que votan como demócratas; los republicanos tienen 45 escaños. Éstos necesitan una ganancia de al menos 6 escaños para lograr la mayoría en un año en el cual el mapa electoral desfavorece a los demócratas porque tienen más escaños que defender: 21 en comparación con los 14 que defienden los republicanos. En el 2016 será lo contrario: los republicanos defenderán 24 escaños y los demócratas 10. De ahí que muchos concluyan que aunque los demócratas pierdan el control de la Cámara Alta este año, tienen posibilidades de recuperarla en 2016 porque el mapa electoral los favorecerá. Pero dos años en política son un mundo y nos ocupa la elección intermedia, la cual, si los sondeos aciertan, se perfila como gris para los demócratas y, por ende, para la agenda de salida del presidente Obama. Desconozco si será una sacudida como la paliza (shellacking) de 2010, catalogada así por el mismo Obama cuando la batalla por la pieza central de su legado, el Obamacare, costó escaños a los demócratas que entonces controlaban ambas cámaras del Congreso y la Casa Blanca. Obamacare avanzó sin apoyo republicano. La reforma migratoria quedó en el tintero. Ahora Obama enfrenta bajos índices de popularidad que salpican las contiendas, por lo cual sólo ha enviado emisarios a los estados más competidos en el Senado. Cada candidato también carga su penitencia, es decir, no es sólo culpa de Obama, sino de las particularidades de cada escaño. Hay cuando menos cuatro contiendas del Senado: Colorado, Louisiana, Georgia y Kansas, cuyo desenlace no queda claro y que determinarán los resultados que bien pueden conocerse en su totalidad la misma noche de las elecciones, o bien habrá que esperar a que se concreten probables segundas vueltas antes de saber exactamente cuál será el balance final de poder. En Alaska, Arkansas, Iowa y Carolina del Norte también hay luchas cerradas que abren las posibilidades de que los republicanos sumen los seis escaños que requieren. En Colorado, el titular demócrata Mark Udall defiende su escaño ante el republicano Cory Gardner. Udall apoya la reforma migratoria y

then the seat must be filled by the voters via a special election. The added change would be to extend the number of months from 12 to 25 months where the city council will have the option to appoint a board member. The option for the council to appoint a Councilmember with more than half a term left circumvents Democracy and allows for the possibility of three council members manipulating the city council by appointment. We have seen this process of electoral manipulation at the school board level in Chula Vista where at one time most of those board members had gained their seats via the appointment process. Once appointed, and with the incumbent tag, those “insiders” are practically guaranteed re-election to the seat. Men and women live and die to ensure our form of government and protect our rights as a Democracy. As citizens we have the right to elect our representatives. This expanded appointment process eliminates our right to elect that representation! The main argument in favor of this proposition is that it saves the city money. Our argument against Prop B is that our forefathers and our military men and women have paid a much higher price to ensure our right to elected representation. Let’s not cheapen that right just to save a few dollars on those rare occasions when a special election is called John McCann sets the record straight I was surprised and disappointed about your for. editorial and endorsement of my opponent for Vote NO on Prop. B City Council. I am additionally disappointed

no pidió el retraso de las acciones ejecutivas, pero la dilación parece estar afectándolo. Gardner ofrece respuestas dignas de Cantinflas cuando habla de inmigración y parece apostar a que nadar entre dos aguas puede suponerle votos latinos. Eso, aunque tenga el apoyo del antiinmigrante en jefe, Tom Tancredo. Alfonso Aguilar, director ejecutivo del Latino Partnership, del American Principles Project, está instando a los latinos de Colorado a votar por Gardner. El segmento de votantes latinos de Colorado para quienes el tema migratorio define sus preferencias tiene que elegir entre la decepción con el demócrata, el republicano antirreforma, o simplemente no votar. Los grupos de movilización luchan para garantizar que los hispanos voten en una de las contiendas que puede decidir el balance del Senado. El voto latino podría ser la diferencia entre el triunfo o la derrota de Udall. En Carolina del Norte, donde hay casi 124 mil votantes latinos registrados, la titular demócrata, Kay Hagan, también enfrenta una reñida contienda ante el republicano Thom Tillis. Hagan votó en contra del DREAM Act en 2010, votó a favor del plan de reforma migratoria que el Senado aprobó en 2013, pero favoreció eliminar los fondos al plan de Acción Diferida (DACA) e instó por el retraso de las acciones ejecutivas migratorias. “El dilema para los votantes latinos será no apoyar a Hagan y facilitar la elección al Senado, para un periodo de seis años, del republicano Thom Tillis, quien tiene una política aún más dura contra los inmigrantes”, indicó Rafael Prieto, periodista radicado en Carolina del Norte. Con todo, la potencial aspirante a la nominación presidencial demócrata, Hillary Clinton, hizo campaña por Hagan el sábado y fue cuestionada por los DREAMers para que aclare sus posturas más allá de decir que apoya la reforma migratoria. Después de todo, su esposo, el ex presidente Bill Clinton, promulgó en 1996 una de las leyes más restrictivas contra los inmigrantes con documentos que también implementó las prohibiciones de los tres y los diez años que han impedido que tantos individuos puedan regularizar su situación migratoria o reunirse con sus familias tras una deportación. Pero la presión sobre Clinton apenas comienza. Lo inmediato son las elecciones intermedias y paliza o no, por lo pronto, a votar. Maribel Hastings es asesora ejecutiva de America’s Voice

THE PUBLIC FORUM ... EL FORO PÚBLICO...

instead of receiving a golden parachute of $400K. Reasons for his firing included Gandara’s billing of hundreds of meals to a district credit card even though he was paid an $800-a-month allowance for that purpose; the infamous ‘money tree’ at his daughter’s bridal shower, where contractors had been invited; and his decision to hire a PR firm without trustee knowledge. These were just a few of the reasons but plenty evidence to fire for cause. Lastly we misstated when we said he ran for State Senate, he actually ran for State Assembly. John McCann wrote a letter in rebuttal to our editorial we invite you to read it.

because the editorial is riddled with untrue statements and inaccuracies. I do respectfully request that you correct the factual errors in your editorial. 1. I never took a trip to Texas or voted to hire Jesus Gandara. He had been hired well before me being on the school board. Fact is that I had only been on the Board a couple of months when I made the motion to terminate Gandara. So the statement “Then there was the hiring of Jesus Gandara under McCann’s watch, he actually went to Texas to interview him.” is completely false. 2. I terminated Jesus Gandara in 2011 and Gandara was not charged of any crime or anything else until 2012. I therefore terminated him prior to knowing anything about his crimes against the District. I never voted for and was not on the School Board when Gandara was given his very lucrative contract with a golden parachute. Therefore the statement “Then the firing of Jesus Gandara with a very attractive retirement package of more than $400,000 after corruption charges had been filed against him.” is completely false. 3. Both my boys are bilingual in Spanish and English. Both my boys played on the Xolos club team which was affiliated with the Tijuana Xolos professional soccer team. I even brought

my sons down to the Xolos stadium in Tijuana for soccer practice. My sister-in-law is also Hispanic and was born in Tijuana. When I was President of the School Board, I pushed for and renewed the compact for success with San Diego State. This is one of the most successful programs that helped thousands of students in the South Bay go to college, the majority of them Latino. My wife is a minority and we both speak basic Spanish. My opponent and his daughter don’t even speak Spanish. Therefore, calling me “anti-Hispanic” is clearly untrue and racially motivated. (As clarification we did not call McCann “anti-Hispanic.” We did state that when he ran for State Assembly in 2008, on his web page, he followed the Republican line of thinking on stricter border security. Based on this position we did say that McCann “was not the person to represent the Hispanic community.”) These are just a few of the inaccuracies of your article.

November 2014 election recommendations

By Eileen Wacker

STATEWIDE: Governor • Edmund G. “Jerry” Brown, Democratic: Jerry Brown has done a great job in his first term. Attorney General • Kamala D. Harris, Democratic: Harris has done an admirable job as Attorney General and is on the right side of the issues such as gun control, pro-marriage equality, anti-death penalty. Secretary of State • Alex Padilla, Democratic: The biggest difference between the two candidates for this office is that one is a Republican, not exactly a strong point in our opinion, and of course Padilla the Democrat. Other than that there is not much difference. When there is little difference between two candidates we will always endorse the Hispanic candidate. State Superintendent of Public Instruction • Tom Torlakson: The biggest difference between Marshall Tuck and Torlakson, is that Tuck is pro-charter schools, and is about creating more changes in education, and what we really don’t like about Tuck is that he sees the problems with education as a union issue and as such would like to dismantle many of the Union protections that teachers now have. The last thing the schools need today are more changes, hasn’t there been enough with the No Child Left Behind and now the poorly implemented Common Core! Tuck is procharter school which is contrary to the role of Superintendent of Public Instruction, this person should be working to improve public education instead of finding ways to siphon off money from public ed and funneling it into private enterprises. We believe that now is not the time for change, but a time for a steady hand on the wheel to help guide education and Torlakson is that person. Torlakson understands teachers and the issues they face and is not so quick to blame the teachers for all troubles in education.

I’ve just finished back to school and all the associated challenges and events for my four kids, aged 11 through 16. I’ve attended back to school nights, sports orientations and signed all the “I promise to be a reasonable sports parent” forms. Homework, instruments, and games have started and I even brought snacks yesterday for the team. I already have the dates for the parent conferences. With the overloaded routine approaching insanity… the thought of ‘holidays’ pushes me toward the edge. I am the holiday CEO (Chief Entertainment Officer), organizing the food, presents, traditions, clothes, travel, kennels, house sitters and more. As a mom, I feel great pressure to make the holidays special and fun. I’m the torchbearer of the traditions, either struggling to maintain cherished ones or create new ones for our family. Holidays are the basis of some of the happiest childhood memories. This translates into big expectations and PRESSURE. The good news is when I let it happen, my children bring back the magic of the holidays! It’s very easy to get caught up in their joy as each day gets marked off the calendar. The kids are working out what they will be for Halloween and planning their candy collection routes. But before the Halloween candy is even stale, the stores are gearing up for the holiday season. I have written a skit I think one of the late night Jimmys should put on. I’ve named it Back It Up Santa. The cast could be as follows: an assembly of ghosts, witches and fairies representing Halloween. Multiple turkeys, pilgrims and Indians could represent Thanksgiving. There would be a giant menorah with candleholder arms. And, there would be a few moms. Everyone present would have a say about Santa! A very mad turkey would yell, ‘Back up fatso! You have your own holiday in a month, stay out of mine!’ The menorah would scream, ‘Any adult who perpetrates a threat of coal for

a gift to children is just mean. And your big red suit and ugly beard scare the children. No one wants to sit on your lap!’ Halloween would be up next. The Halloween characters would crowd around Santa and threaten, ‘If you decorate one more store in October, we’ll send you into the afterlife! You’re nothing but a holiday hijacker!’ Lastly, as a mom, I would get my chance to vent the loudest. ‘Christmas is a time of joy, but you are making it too commercialized. We want happy memories, not more pressure on shopping. Stop introducing new Christmas shopping initiatives like Black Friday and cyber Monday. I’m too tired and it’s actually dangerous at Wal-mart! People are getting hurt! Come on Santa! Get some control over Christmas!’ I have one last gripe about Mr. North Pole. In second grade, my son approached me and asked earnestly, “Mom, please tell me the truth so I don’t look stupid on the playground. Is there a Santa Claus or is it really you and Dad?” Since he is the third of our four children, his older siblings knew the truth but we wanted to preserve the Christmas magic for the youngest ones as long as possible. I hesitated as I was debating wildly how to respond. Finally I said, “Okay, as long as you keep the magic of Christmas alive, I’ll tell you. Mom and Dad are Santa.” He shuffled his feet and said, “Oh…” and started to walk away. Then he turned around and said, “Thank goodness for the Tooth Fairy and Easter Bunny.” The elf on a shelf has made huge inroads into your fan base. He is very popular with children. So do all of us moms a favor and ‘back it up Santa’ and we’ll keep your magic alive!

Mesa College Interior Design Program and Students Win Top NKBA Awards In the course of the past month, the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) — the industry gold standard in kitchen and bath design — has recognized the San Diego Mesa College Interior Design Program and its students with some of the bath design industry’s most coveted awards. Mesa College offers the only NKBAaccredited academic program in Southern California. Mesa College was among 17 schools to receive the “2013 Excellence in Education” award for achieving excellence in kitchen design. The annual award recognizes NKBA-accredited schools that have demonstrated the highest standards of kitchen and bath instruction. As part of an annual requirement for accreditation, each school must submit two student-designed kitchen projects and attain the challenging goal

of earning average scores of at least 90 out of a possible 100 points on projects designed by their students. Under the direction of program director Holly Hodnick and instructor Helene Lindquist, Mesa student projects scored an average of 94.0 points. Interior design graduates Megan Siason and Jason Wass were also individually recognized by the NKBA. Megan Siason, who works at Marrokal Design & Remodeling, was among 30 exceptional young professionals recognized by the NKBA. Introduced in 2013, the 30 Under 30 program is designed to capture the voice of the next generation of kitchen and bathroom professionals, according to an industry press statement. She received interior design degrees from Mesa College and San Diego State University in 2012.

Eduardo Reyes:“Education is my passion” (con’t from page 1) Vista schools governing board. “We cannot afford to have people with absolutely no experience or knowledge in education making decisions for thousands of students,” he said. “It is frightening to think that people in completely different fields who have never been in the classroom, that don’t know or understand the different programs for students, and are completely disconnected from students, teachers, and parents, make decisions regarding the academic future of students.” Also, as far as we can tell, Reyes is the only Latino candidate in this race. Given that the majority of the students in the district are of Latino origin, it makes sense to have a Latino perspective in Seat 5. “One of the key elements in teaching is making instruction engaging and relevant,” Reyes said. “This cannot happen if the people making decisions have no connection with the Latino

community. CVESD has over 60 percent of Latino parents and students. A significant percentage of this population falls in the at-risk group. I understand the culture, needs, challenges, and opportunities of this population and I am committed to continue providing support for the Latino community and all other at-risk populations in order to close the achievement gap.” Reyes, who currently works as a principal of an alternative middle/high school, has been endorsed by the teachers’ and classified employees’ unions, and by many educators and elected officials throughout San Diego County. Reyes said that these “endorsements mean trust” because “throughout my career I have been able to gain the trust of countless people and organizations for this job. It means that I am able to work and collaborate well with others and that I value the input of all stakeholders.” Regarding the recent con-

tract agreement between the teachers’ union and the school district, Reyes said that he is all about “rebuilding trust on all sides.” “It is important to improve the moral of teachers and parents. An important component of rebuilding trust is respecting teachers. I am committed to actively listening to all stakeholders and avail myself to teachers, parents, and community members,” he said. But in addition to his vast experience as an educator, Reyes said the biggest asset he will bring to the Chula Vista Elementary School District governing board is his “deep and genuine care for students.” “I chose this profession because it is my passion. I plan to serve all stakeholders of CVESD with that same passion,” Reyes said.

Mexico’s Days of Love and Rage (con’t from page 2) and other government officials, several versions exist (disputed in part by Atoytzinapa attorney Vidulfo Rosales Sierra) of why the students, who were in Iguala collecting monetary donations from the public in order to be able to attend the annual commemoration of October 1968 Tlatelolco Massacre in Mexico City, were so viciously targeted by municipal police and Guerreros Unidos cartel gunmen in the first place. Implicated as the authors of the violence, now-fugitive Iguala Mayor Jose Luis Abarca and his wife, Maria de los Angeles Pineda Villa, who has been identified as the sister of founding members of Guerreros Unidos, were reportedly incensed at the Ayotzinapa students’ presence in Iguala while a ceremony and dance attended by the couple was in progress on September 26. Consequently, either Abarca or his wife- or both- ordered that a harsh lesson be given to the young people. A related explanation for the mass abduction that climaxed the police shootings of the students and passing members of the public is that corrupt city officials and Guerreros Unidos made a monstrous misjudgment in confusing the students with “Los Rojos,” a rival organized crime group. So far, more than 50 people have been detained in connection with the violence, including Iguala policemen and alleged Guerreros Unidos members, according to Attorney General Murillo. In comments about this week’s political upheaval, President Pena Nieto reiterated his government’s

commitment to locating the missing students and applying justice. “The President of the Republic makes the sentiment of indignation his own…,” Pena Nieto said. While the Iguala atrocities are far from unique in Mexico, the September 26-27 violence has perhaps no better exposed in one fell swoop the collusion of government and organized crime, the criminal infiltration and corruption of political parties, the cold hand of official repression, and the incapability or disinterest of the state in guaranteeing the security of its civilians. A central message of protesters this week: Iguala was a crime against humanity committed by the state. Analysts and commentators of all stripes weighed in on the turmoil. “Preceded by the scandal around the (June 30) firing squad execution of 22 people by the army in the Mexico state village of Tlatlaya, the case of the disappearance of the 43 Ayotzinapa students turned on its head the government of Enrique Pena Nieto, which was acting triumphant because of its structural reforms- especially the energy one- and that were displayed abroad as a modern and vanguard government,” wrote Proceso’s Jose Gil Olmos. “Nonetheless, Pena Nieto’s government is completely overwhelmed by a social, political and economic crisis…” Columnist Jorge Ramos, the star broadcaster of the Spanish-language television network Univision that is beamed into millions of U.S. house-

holds, was no less poignant in a column this past week. “The dead of Mexico can no longer be hidden. The massacres of Tlatlaya and Iguala show the worst of the country: the army massacring civilians and the police murdering students. This is Barbarous Mexico. And the government of President Enrique Pena Nieto is almost deaf, paralyzed and overwhelmed, as if the fault was not its own,” Ramos wrote. “Mexico smells rotten; it smells of the old PRI (President Pena Nieto’s Institutional Revolutionary Party). Students the country over, with marches and protests, no longer swallow the old (government) tale that we will search and punish. The lines are drawn: the government, its army and police are not with the students, with the victims of violence, or their families. Mexico was broken in Iguala…” Ironically, the outcomes of the massacre in Iguala, the very place where Mexico’s independence from Spain was formalized in 1821, could well lead to a new day for the nation-or its demise. As one Ciudad Juarez activist remarked to FNS, the great challenge of the youth and popular uprising of October 2014 will be to maintain the grassroots momentum while organizing and articulating the movement in a way so genuine, lasting changes result.

Los ex braceros y su apoyo al Dr. Mireles

(con’t from page 2) Morelos y Pavón, los ex braceros se manifestaron mientras se desarrollaba el acto oficial. A las reuniones en Morelia, siguieron asambleas en Cuitzeo el 1 de octubre, el 2 en Puruándiro, el 3 en La Piedad, y los días 4 y 5 en Tierra Caliente, todos esto en el estado de Michoacán. Posteriormente -el día 6estuvieron en la Plaza de Armas de Guadalajara, donde los manifestantes hablaron sobre el caso de los autodefensas, y su líder Binacional Ventura Gutiérrez comentó: “la mayoría de la gente con quien platico ya no sabe quién es quién cuando se habla de los autodefensas. Porque enfrentan una dinámica parecida a la de los partidos, donde no se sabe a quién irle. Esto debido a que tanto el gobierno como el crimen organizado tiene y financia sus propios grupos”. Por tal motivo consideraron los ex braceros, en su mayoría los “verdaderos, Auténticos o legítimos” autodefensas están en los penales de Michoacán y en otros estados del país. Al término de la reunión informativa en Guadalajara, todos en coro repitieron las consignas del recorrido.

“¿Peña, Cuando los Ex braceos?”, y “Castillo, NO es un Crimen Defenderse”, al mismo tiempo que firmaban el escrito dirigido al Dr. Méreles y el Formato en apoyo a la Ley de Amnistía presentada en el Senado de la República. Al día siguiente, 7 de octubre, los manifestantes hicieron lo propio en Tepic, Nayarit; y el día 8 en Culiacán, Sinaloa. Finalmente, el 13 de octubre miembros del Comité Nacional Ejecutivo de Braceroproa, decenas de ex braceros y su líder Ventura Gutiérrez acudieron al Penal de Hermosillo con la intención de visitar al Dr. Mireles, pero únicamente le fue permitido el paso al Licenciado Salvador Molina Navarro, uno de los abogados de los autodefensas. Con estas acciones -a decir de los líderes de Braceroproa- se cumplió el objetivo de presentar el escrito de solidaridad dirigido al Dr. Mireles y demás Auténticos Autodefensas presos. En el lugar, Ventura Gutiérrez declaró: “ahora solo esperaremos la libertad del Dr. Mireles y los autodefensas, para seguir respaldando la lucha que ellos decidan seguir dando…”.

Hoy en día los ex braceros no sólo se manifiestan a favor de su causa, la realidad nacional y la ebullición de protestas y grupos sociales vejados, los han hecho solidarizarse con otras causas. Sus manifestaciones continuarán. La próxima semana líderes de Braceroproa estarán en Baja California y Los Angeles con el fin de sumarse a la ola de voces que exigen una Reforma Migratoria que beneficie a los millones de mexicanos indocumentados en Estados Unidos. Mientras que, sobre el caso de sus ahorros perdidos y la lucha que desde 1998 mantienen por su recuperación, el líder Binacional consideró: “el gobierno de Enrique Peña Nieto le sigue dando la espalda a la causa histórica de los ex braceros”. Además de recalcar: “pareciera ser que para él (el presidente) no existieran los ex braceros, pero sí los dueños del capital en el extranjero y sus socios vende patria mexicanas”. A decir de los ex braceros, si el gobierno federal mexicano continúa dándoles la espalda, “¡que se le eche mas leña al fuego que ya incendio Enrique Peña Nieto!”.
