My city was broken but my people were not. I returned to Mexico just to find some of the streets I grew up on, and not recognize them. There are dozens of buildings slumped by the 7.1-magnitude earthquake which pieces of burbled cement are covered by a blanket of blue, red and white helmets. The workers stop, raise their fists and ask for silence. It is the sign that, perhaps, they have found someone alive among the rubble. Then, they lower their arms and that multicolored blanket moves again looking for another opportunity. Not far back, behind a police tape, are waiting hundreds of relatives. It is two o’clock in the morning and they have not left. Nor will they leave, until they know if their mother, if her brother, if her son, is among the dead. The behavior reflects the best of Mexico. In addition to marvelous solidarity, Mexicans have demonstrated an extraordinary response capacity following the earthquake. And I’m sure this will extend to many other things. We Mexicans c...

The Venezuelan community of South Florida was divided Monday on the decision of the administration of Donald Trump to restrict  entry to the United States to certain citizens of the oil country linked to the regime of Nicholas Maduro.
