Escalones del Sagrado Corazon

There's something very nice about seeing family waiting on the church steps before and after a wedding. Here, my Mom (holding her nieta Pilli), my sister's father-in-law, my Dad and my brother Danny watch as my cousin Elvia, the bride, takes pictures on the steps of the Sagrado Corazon church in Lincoln Heights. I am glad Elvia chose to get married at the Sagrado Corazon. I still remember when we were all here more than 15 years ago, on the same steps, celebrating her First Communion.  

Taco Town & Beyond

Decades later, the Rivas family reunited with the Lopez family. During the early 1970s, the couple pictured in the center were my parents' landlords in historic Boyle Heights. Back then, my sister and I were the only children in our household, and the Lopez family treated us extremely well. My mom still recalls how La Senora Lopez arrived with a huge basket of gifts after I was born. Here, we are all celebrating my cousin Elvia's wedding on the front steps of the Sagrado Corazon church in Lincoln Heights.

The Lopez family owned a four-unit apartment building in Boyle Heights, near the corner of Cincinnati and Brooklyn Avenue (now Avenida Cesar Chavez). To this day, the Rivas family continues to have great memories of "La Cincinnati," remembering how great it was to live one block north of "La Brooklyn," the main artery in East LA.

The Lopez family also owned several Mexican restaurants, one of which was called "Taco Town" in Pico Rivera. Back in the 1970s, my father had several jobs trying to make ends meet. One of the jobs he had was the night shift cleaning the "Taco Town" restaurant. In those days, my mom, my sister and I would all go to the restaurant and help my dad mop, sweep and pick up after all the patrons had left. The nostalgic mexican music coming out of the juke box kept us going. The Lopez family still claim that my dad and his cleaning team are the best they have ever had!

El "Taco Town" in Pico Rivera was an important place for the young Rivas family during the 1970s. And in 2006 more than ever, the term "Taco Town" brings back memories of those unforgettable tacos in East LA!


 

Latino Youth Make History

Latino youth make history in the City of Los Angeles as thousands of brave and politically aware students walk out of their high schools in protest of the proposed legislation on immigration. It is beautiful to see so many young people taking an active interest on what is going around the country. In an age of apathy, one has to wonder, where is MTV? MTV was nowhere in sight as thousands of Latino youth took their opinions to the streets and made their statements in one of the largest civic gatherings in the history of the United States. Viva USA! Viva Mexico!

People are very quick to criticize the presence of Mexican flags in these protests, but they do not realize that Mexicans and Mexican-Americans have lived under decades of prejudice and discrimination, constantly targeted by laws that seem neutral on the surface, only to reveal a discriminatory tone in their underbelly. The Mexican flags simply point out the elephant in the room.
 

"Don't Panic, We're Hispanic"

Students March on Behalf of Immigrants for 5th Day
By Cynthia H. Cho and Anna Gorman, Times Staff Writers
12:31 PM PST, March 28, 2006

Thousands of teenagers braved heavy rains this morning to walk out of school and push pro-immigrant demonstrations into a fifth straight day in the Los Angeles area.

Some 7,075 students, mainly from middle schools, had walked out as of 11:15 a.m. A total of 45 schools were impacted.

"That's less compared to yesterday, a lot fewer than yesterday, but that's still a pretty large number of kids out of school," said Susan Cox, spokesperson for the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Cox said all secondary school campuses were locked down today, meaning no students who entered school grounds were allowed to leave.

Participation today paled in comparison to the nearly 24,000 students at LAUSD and a total of 40,000 students from across Southern California who staged walkouts to protest proposed immigration legislation Monday, blocking traffic on four freeways and leaving educators concerned about how much longer the issue will disrupt schools.

Districts lose payments of $28.13 per student per day. The state makes the payments to support local schools.

"Discipline is up to each individual school," Cox said. "Students will be held accountable for attendance and for missing work."

With steady rain falling this morning, a scattering of walkouts were reported, including one in Compton and another in Wilmington.

Television broadcast reports showed a small group of students, holding their hands over their heads, as they were detained and later escorted by police along one road in San Pedro.

Monday's protests are believed to eclipse in size the demonstrations that occurred during the anti-Proposition 187 campaign in 1994, and even a famous student walkout for Chicano rights in 1968.

Some principals put their schools on lockdown Monday to keep students from leaving campus, and Los Angeles Unified School District officials said all middle and high schools will be on lockdown today.

Monday's demonstrations appeared to start in Los Angeles but quickly spread to San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino, Orange and Ventura counties. Though the protests were mostly peaceful, there were a few clashes and several arrests.

Motorists were left in gridlock as youths marched down Sunset Boulevard, Melrose Avenue, Laurel Canyon Boulevard and other major thoroughfares.

At one point, protesters marched onto the Hollywood Freeway in downtown Los Angeles and two sections of the Harbor Freeway, downtown and in San Pedro, briefly halting traffic.

Students in Orange County briefly blocked the Riverside Freeway and Santa Ana Freeway in Fullerton, waving Mexican flags and tossing a rock that smashed the window of a CHP cruiser.

By noon, thousands of youths had gathered in front of Los Angeles City Hall, with student leaders meeting privately with Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. The rally took on a festive tone, with many waving Mexican flags and yelling, "Latinos Stand Up!" and "Viva Mexico!"

"It was my dad's and grandfather's sweat and tears that built the city of Los Angeles," said Marshall High School senior Saul Corona, whose father came to the United States illegally before getting a green card. "People like them did things no one else wanted to do because they wanted me to have a better future."

The protests appeared to be loosely organized, with students learning about them through mass e-mails, fliers, instant messages, cellphone calls and postings on myspace.com Web pages. By contrast, the massive rally Saturday that drew 500,000 people to downtown Los Angeles was highly organized, with demonstrators urged to wear white and bring American flags.

Many students said they were marching in opposition to a bill sponsored by Rep. F. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) that passed the House in December. The bill would give police more power to enforce immigration laws and would lead to 700 miles of additional fencing along the border.

Even as the students marched, a Senate committee approved an immigration package Monday that would enable some of the 12 million undocumented immigrants in the country to become U.S. citizens.

As immigrants or children of immigrants, several marchers said they would be personally affected by Sensenbrenner's pending bill.

"If this law passes, what will happen?" said Yadira Pech, 16. "There would be no more Los Angeles High School. Nearly all of us are immigrants."

Added Antonio Chavez, an eighth-grader at University Heights Middle School in Riverside: "Our parents, our families came here from Mexico. We want other families to be able to come here too."

Some students said they did not know exactly what the bill said but believed that it was part of an anti-immigrant movement taking hold nationwide.

"We just walked out because we didn't want to be at school," said Diana Hernandez, a senior at Dorsey High School in Los Angeles. "But we also believe [the legislation] is wrong."

The demonstrations became violent in some areas. In San Diego County, two dozen protesters were arrested in Escondido after refusing orders from police to disperse. Two patrol cars were reportedly vandalized.

In Riverside, a peaceful student protest unfolded downtown as six youths and one adult were arrested across town after scuffles with police clad in riot gear and carrying nightsticks, authorities said. After following students throughout the city and calling for them to disperse, officers confronted the group. Students responded by hurling rocks and bottles at police.

"They're pushing us around," said Pati Sanchez, a Norte Vista High School senior. "People should be able to say what they think."

In Santa Ana, officers used nightsticks and pepper spray to control students throwing bottles and rocks. They also set up barricades to prevent the protesters from disrupting traffic. One student was arrested and a few others suffered minor injuries, police said.

Four adults were arrested during a protest in Van Nuys, but no major violence occurred in Los Angeles County. The demonstrations prompted a tactical alert by Los Angeles police so the department could deploy officers to areas where they were needed.

"They're noisy but well-behaved," said LAPD Chief William J. Bratton as he walked through the downtown crowd. "Let them have their say."

In a district with about 358,000 middle and high school students, an estimated 26,000 walked out of more than 50 Los Angeles Unified campuses. Teachers, principals and school police urged students to demonstrate on campus, but students flooded through gates and onto city streets and sidewalks.

"It's very disruptive," said Ellen Morgan, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles Unified School District. "We want them to express their opinions, but there are venues, there are forums for them to do so. We'd like them to stay in school and get an education."

Not only did the mostly high school students miss class time, administrators said, but the district could lose money if students did not show up. And with postings on myspace.com promoting more walkouts today, principals were doing whatever they could to encourage students to stay on school grounds.

Teachers are planning lessons on the immigration issue, and administrators are setting aside spots on campus for rallies and sit-ins. Some school officials plan to punish students who left campus with enforced attendance at Saturday school.

In Los Angeles, principals sent notes home that urged parents to tell their children to stay on campus and warned of disciplinary action for those who did not.

Lucy Delgadillo, whose children attend South East High School in South Gate, said she knows that lockdowns promote school safety.

"There are some kids who don't know what the protest is about," she said. "But there are kids who understand and feel strongly about this, and I think they should be allowed to protest."

At some campuses where students did walk out, staff members marched alongside the youths to ensure their safety, officials said. In addition, Los Angeles school administrators dispatched about 30 buses to City Hall and other locations to ferry students back to their campuses in the afternoon.

In a noontime speech outside City Hall, Villaraigosa told the students that he opposed the Sensenbrenner bill.

"I know that all of you are fearful about what's going on," Villaraigosa said, referring to the pending legislation. "I know it would criminalize 12 million people."

But later in the afternoon, when he came out to tell students to go home, he was met with chants of, "Hell no, we won't go."

Administrators expressed differing views on the protests, which took place on the Cesar Chavez holiday. Some complained about a wasted day, while others praised the youths' activism.

"What pleases me is that our kids are politically active," said Ventura Unified School District Supt. Trudy Arriaga. "Isn't that what we want for the future?"

But Oxnard Union High School District Supt. Joy Dunlap said she hoped that it was over and that students had fulfilled their need to express their opinions.

"They've had that opportunity and now they'll come back and get back to studies on a normal basis," she said.

Santa Ana Unified School District Supt. Al Mijares said the students should use the classroom to engage in the immigration debate.

"The students are generally interested in the subject," he said. "But our quest is to make sure they're safe. We don't want them to miss school."

For the most part, students were met with support from honking motorists and cheering observers. (The demonstrations occurred a week after HBO premiered a movie about the 1968 student walkouts in East Los Angeles to protest the treatment of Chicanos.)

"I'm so proud of these kids," said social worker Robin Sheiner, as she watched the crowd pass on Melrose. "They're showing what they believe in."

A Sleeping Giant Awakens

500,000 Pack Streets to Protest Immigration Bills
The rally, part of a massive mobilization of immigrants and their supporters, may be the largest L.A. has seen.
By Teresa Watanabe and Hector Becerra, Times Staff Writers
March 26, 2006

A crowd estimated by police at more than 500,000 boisterously marched in Los Angeles on Saturday to protest federal legislation that would crack down on undocumented immigrants, penalize those who help them and build a security wall along the U.S.' southern border.

Spirited but peaceful marchers — ordinary immigrants alongside labor, religious and civil rights groups — stretched more than 20 blocks along Spring Street, Broadway and Main Street to City Hall, tooting kazoos, waving American flags and chanting, "Sí se puede!" (Yes we can!).

Attendance at the demonstration far surpassed the number of people who protested against the Vietnam War and Proposition 187, a 1994 state initiative that sought to deny public benefits to undocumented migrants but was struck down by the courts. Police said there were no arrests or injuries except for a few cases of exhaustion.

At a time when Congress prepares to crack down further on illegal immigration and self-appointed militias patrol the U.S. border to stem the flow, Saturday's rally represented a massive response, part of what immigration advocates are calling an unprecedented effort to mobilize immigrants and their supporters nationwide.

It coincides with an initiative on the part of the Roman Catholic Church, spearheaded by Cardinal Roger M. Mahony, archbishop of Los Angeles, to defy a House bill that would make aiding undocumented immigrants a felony. And it signals the burgeoning political clout of Latinos, especially in California.

"There has never been this kind of mobilization in the immigrant community ever," said Joshua Hoyt, executive director of the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights. "They have kicked the sleeping giant. It's the beginning of a massive immigrant civil rights struggle."

The demonstrators, many wearing white shirts to symbolize peace, included both longtime residents and the newly arrived, bound by a desire for a better life.

Arbelica Lazo, 40, illegally emigrated from El Salvador two decades ago but said she now owns two businesses and pays $7,000 in income taxes each year.

Jose Alberto Salvador, 33, came here illegally four months ago to find work to support the wife and five children he left behind. In his native Guatemala, he said, what little work he could find paid $10 a day.

"As much as we need this country, we love this country," Salvador said, waving both the American and Guatemalan flags. "This country gives us opportunities we don't get at home."

On Monday, the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to resume work on a comprehensive immigration reform proposal. The Senate committee's version includes elements of various bills, including a guest worker program and a path to legalization for the nation's 10 million to 12 million undocumented immigrants proposed by Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Edward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.)

In addition, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) has introduced a bill that would strengthen border security, crack down on employers of illegal immigrants and increase the number of visas for workers. Frist has said he would take his bill to the floor Tuesday if the committee does not finish its work Monday.

Ultimately, the House and Senate bills must be reconciled before a law can be passed.

President Bush has advocated a guest worker program and attracted significant Latino support for his views.

In his Saturday radio address, Bush urged all sides of the emotional debate to tone down their rhetoric, calling for a balanced approach between more secure borders and more temporary foreign workers.

Largely in response to the debate in Washington, hundreds of thousands of people in recent weeks have staged marches in more than a dozen cities calling for immigration reform.

In Denver, police said Saturday that more than 50,000 people gathered downtown at Civic Center Park next to the Capitol to urge the state Senate to reject a resolution supporting a ballot issue that would deny many government services to illegal immigrants in Colorado.

Hundreds rallied in Reno, the Associated Press reported.

On Friday, tens of thousands of people were estimated to have staged school walkouts, marches and work stoppages in Los Angeles, Phoenix, Atlanta and other cities.

In addition, several cities, including Los Angeles, have passed resolutions opposing the House legislation. At least one city, Maywood, declared itself a "sanctuary" for undocumented immigrants.

Despite the significant opposition to the crackdown on illegal immigrants shown by the turnout in recent rallies, a recent Zogby poll found 62% of Americans surveyed wanted more restrictive immigration policies, and a Field Poll last month found that the majority of California voters surveyed believed illegal immigration was hurting the state.

"Polling has consistently shown that Americans don't want guest workers or amnesty," said Caroline Espinosa, spokeswoman for NumbersUSA, a Washington-based immigration control group that says its e-mail list of 1 million and 140,000-member roster of activists have more than doubled in the last year.

Espinosa said current levels of both legal and illegal immigration would push the U.S. population to 420 million by 2050, "leading to a tremendously negative impact on the quality of life in the United States."

According to a U.S. Census Bureau survey a year ago, the nation's 35.2 million immigrants — legal and illegal — represent a record number. California led the country with nearly 10 million, constituting 28% of the state's population overall and one-third of its work force.

The swelling number of immigrants has clearly influenced the political calculus of those involved in the issue, including political and religious groups. The Republican Party, for instance, is split among those who want tougher restrictions, those who fear alienating the Latino vote and business owners who are pressing for more laborers — mostly Latin Americans — to fill blue-collar jobs in construction, cleaning, gardening and other industries.

Some Republicans fear that pushing too hard against illegal immigrants could backfire nationally, as with Proposition 187. Strong Republican support of that measure helped spur record numbers of California Latinos to become U.S. citizens and register to vote. Those voters subsequently helped the Democrats regain political control in the state.

"There is no doubt Proposition 187 had a devastating impact on the [California] Republican Party," said Allan Hoffenblum, a Republican political consultant. "Now the Republicans in Congress better beware: If they come across as too shrill, with a racist tone, all of a sudden you're going to see Republicans in cities with a high Latino population start losing their seats."

The effects of the nation's growing Latino presence also are evident in religious communities. This week, for instance, the president of the 30-million-member National Assn. of Evangelicals is scheduled to issue a statement supporting immigration reform, including a guest worker program. It will be in concert with the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, said the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, conference president.

Rodriguez, whose Sacramento-based group serves the nation's 18 million evangelical Christian Latinos, said it took "a lot of persuasion" to broker the joint statement with Ted Haggard, president of the evangelicals group. Rodriguez said he warned the group that failure to support comprehensive immigration reform would have long-term political repercussions.

Latino evangelical Christians voted for Bush at a 40% higher rate than Latinos overall, he said, but they would probably turn away from conservative candidates and causes without support on immigration.

"I had to do a lot of asking: Will Hispanics ever vote for conservative candidates again, or partner with white evangelicals if they were silent while our brothers and sisters and cousins were being sent out of the county on buses?" Rodriguez said.

Churches were just one force behind Saturday's rally.

Several immigrant advocates said that the ethnic media were a significant factor in drawing crowds. News outlets repeatedly publicized it and even exhorted marchers to wear white shirts. Churches announced the rally too. Although a police spokeswoman estimated the crowd at 500,000 based on helicopter surveillance, rally organizers said it was closer to 1 million.

Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa briefly addressed the rally.

"We cannot criminalize people who are working, people who are contributing to our economy and contributing to the nation," Villaraigosa said.

In contrast to demonstrations 12 years ago against Proposition 187, Saturday's rally featured more American flags than those from any other country. Flag vendors were soon overwhelmed by demonstrators holding out dollar bills.

Father Michael Kennedy, a longtime immigrant advocate and pastor of Dolores Mission Church in Boyle Heights, said that past demonstrations were more heavily Mexican or Mexican American, but the House bill had rallied protesters across religious, national and ethnic lines.

One was Korean immigrant Dae Joong Yoon, executive director of the Korean Resource Center in Los Angeles. Yoon said the Korean community was more inflamed over the House bill than Proposition 187 because it would penalize not only undocumented immigrants but also businesses that hired them and anyone who helped them.

He said the Korean-language media has intensified coverage of the House bill in recent weeks.

"The Korean community is shocked and outraged over this inhumane legislation," Yoon said. "Everybody would be affected by it."

Bruins - Ready for the Madness!

We are Bruins. Y que? Yes, they said we couldn't do it, but Gonzaga learned the hard way. When you challenge Bruins, you gotta be ready to go to the very end. Viva UCLA!! NCAA March Madness here we come!  

UCLA Victory - Blue Heaven

This UCLA Victory Is Blue Heaven
March 24 2006

OAKLAND — Wait one Wooden minute.

Why are those Bruin players running across the court? Cedric Bozeman screaming at the crowd? Ben Howland dancing in his wrinkled suit?

And why is Gonzaga's Adam Morrison stretched out on that court, heaving, crying, crumpled?

Wait one Walton second.

Gonzaga won, didn't it? The Bulldogs led by 17 points in the first half, by nine points with 3:27 left, by five points in the final minute, right?

They had bullied the Bruins, outsmarted the Bruins, shoved them into next season, it was over, finished, done.

What happened?

"We dug deep," said Jordan Farmar, pale, breathless.

And up came UCLA basketball.

That's what happened.

On this most amazing of nights in the NCAA regional semifinals at the Arena, tradition happened, history happened, the greatness that once was Bruin basketball happened.

"Once again, UCLA basketball has a belief that we are among the best in the nation," said Dan Guerrero, athletic director.

It was a belief in the unbelievable, a 73-71 victory over Gonzaga that even this courtside witness still has trouble fathoming, and I'm not alone.

"I can't explain it, I can't try to explain it, I don't know what happened or how it happened," said Ryan Hollins after waltzing around the court with Bozeman. "I just know it happened."

It was a game in which the Bruins led only once.

It was a game in which the Bruins had to stop the Zags from scoring on their last six possessions, and did.

It was a game in which the Bruins needed a last-second steal, and got one.

All of which set up a play that is symbolic of a burgeoning era, the Ben Howland era, a coach who has his team so disciplined, it can pull out a comeback win even though he blew his last timeout with 4:53 left.

Start with the Farmar steal of Gonzaga giant J.P. Batista on a full-court press in the last seconds with the Bruins trailing by one.

It came on a trademark Howland trap, Farmar and Bozeman harassing Batista into losing the ball.

"I don't know where we got it from," said Farmar, but everyone knows.

Now, look at Farmar's pass to Luc Richard Mbah a Moute after the steal, the guard finding his teammate under the basket even though some guards would have jacked the shot themselves.

"As soon as Jordan got the ball, he looked at me," said Mbah a Moute. "I knew it was coming. I couldn't wait."

Now, look at what happened after Mbah a Moute made the layup with a couple of seconds left to give the Bruins their only lead.

Did he celebrate? Did he wander around looking for someone to hug?

No, he ran back downcourt to defend, ran into Gonzaga guard Derek Raivio and forced a loose ball.

"We are always taught around here, the game is never over," Mbah a Moute said. "There is always more time."

And when the ball hit the ground, Mbah a Moute showed something else they are always taught.

"We always know about the possession arrow, and I knew we had it, so I knew if I could get a jump ball, it would be ours," he said.

So he dived, locked up Raivio, and the Bruins controlled the game, finalizing the score with an Afflalo free throw.

This same Afflalo who picked up his fourth foul with 15:24 remaining on Morrison's three-point basket, leading to a four-point play that gave the Zags a 10-point lead.

At that point, I'll admit it, I pronounced the game over.

With UCLA's deliberate offense missing its leading scorer, how could it come back fast enough?

With UCLA's defense missing its best defender, who was going to stop Morrison?

"It was desperation time," admitted Afflalo.

But with Howland shouting the plays on offense, and running up and down the sidelines as if trying to play defense, the Bruins slowly climbed back.

One minute, it was reserve Darren Collison going coast to coast with a runner and a shout.

"No quit anywhere, we just couldn't find any quit," Collison said.

The next minute, it was the slight Hollins fighting over the Gonzaga elbows.

"I think most of us are too young to understand the impact of what just happened," Hollins said. "We just know that it's pretty amazing."

In the end, a team that missed its first eight shots of the game couldn't miss.

In the end, a team that committed four consecutive turnovers at one point in the first half held tight.

In the end, it was Ben Howland waxing.

"It's really just a testament to the character, the toughness, the heart of our players," he said.

In the end, it was Adam Morrison weeping, with Afflalo and Hollins walking over to pick him up and hug him.

"That' s just a sign of obviously a great program," Morrison said, adding, "They had enough guts as a man to come over in their moment of victory, pick somebody up off the floor."

In the end, it was Bruin fans remaining in the stands long after their team had left the court, clapping, chanting, howling loud enough to be heard from Westwood to … Indianapolis?

"U-C-L-A."

Sound familiar?
