Silver Wing Elementary parents:
“We were ignored”
By Pablo J. Sáinz
Parents from a south San Diego
elementary are claiming that Chula
Vista Elementary School District
admnistrators left them out of the process of permanently placing a charter high school on the elementary
school’s campus.
At a Feb. 26th special meeting the
district’s board approved the construction bid for Chula Vista Learning Community Charter High School
on Silver Wing Elementary’s campus,
something the parents said they had
no voice in.
“We were totally blindsided,” said
Rosa Surber, a mother of a 5th grader
at Silver Wing, during a recent meeting of several concerned parents at
an off-campus location to discuss
how they will respond to the issue.
“Parents weren’t part of the project.
We were ignored.”
But the issue goes back almost two
years, when in May 22, 2013, the
school district board approved several items for the high school to be
placed on the Silver Wing campus.
Since then, the high school and the
elementary school have shared the
campus, only separated by a chainlink fence.
Surber said parents didn’t know
about it then, and for two years the
school principal and district administrators didn’t address parents’ concerns. She added that it wasn’t until
a February 18th baord meeting last
month that parents were told about
the district’s decision to place
CVLCC High School permanently on
the Silver Wing campus.
Padres de una primaria en el sur
de San Diego están alegando que
administradores del Distrito Escolar
de Chula Vista los dejaron fuera del
proceso de la colocación de una high
school tipo charter en el campus de
la escuela primaria.
En una junta especial el 26 de
febrero la mesa directiva del distrito
escolar aprobó el contrato de construcción de la Chula Vista Learning
Community Charter High School en
el campus de la Silver Wing Elementary, algo que los padres dijeron no
tuvieron voz en el asunto.
“Nos mantuvieron fuera”, dijo
Rosa Surber, madre de un estudiante
de quinto grado en Silver Wing, durante una junta reciente de varios
padres preocupados en una ubicación
fuera de la escuela para tratar cómo
responderán al asunto. “Los padres
no fueron parte del proyecto. Fuimos
ignorados”.
Pero el tema ya tiene casi dos
años, cuando en la junta de la mesa
directiva del 22 de mayo del 2013, la
mesa directiva aprobó varios asuntos
para que la high school fuera colocada
en el campus de Silver Wing. Desde
entonces, la high school y la primaria
han compartido las instalaciones, solo
separadas por una barda de malla
ciclónica.
Surber dijo que los padres no
sabían nada sobre lo que iba a
suceder, y por dos años la directora y
los administradores del distrito escolar no hablaron del tema con los padres. Añadió que no fue hasta la junta
del 18 de febrero que los padres

Although many people consider
marches in favor of the 43 missing
college students in southwestern
Mexico worthless, an uncle of one of
the students said that these events of
solidarity give their families hope and
courage.
“My brother is devastated because
his son, Jorge, has been gone for five
months, but when he told that when
he sees these shows of affection and
solidarity from so many people across
the world, he gets new energy and a
new hope,” said Raul Alvarez at a
recent march from the Mexican Consulate in Little Italy to the NBC news
studio in downtown San Diego.
The march, which took place on
Saturday, Feb. 28th, was organized by
Comité Acción Ayotzinapa, a local
organization that has been at the forefront of this movement in San Diego
in favor of the missing students’ families.
The 43 missing students were kidnapped five months ago, in September, in the Mexican state of Guerrero,
alledgely in the hands of local authorities and drug traffickers. The 43 missing were students at a rural teachers
college.
The purpose of the march was to
remind people in San Diego that the
families of the missing students are
still demanding justice from the Mexican government.
“The base of this movement is support and human solidarity, and this
march is to echo San Diego’s presence in this worldwide struggle for
justice, to find the 43 students and in

supieron de la decisión del distrito de
colocar la high school de manera
permanente en el campus de la
primaria Silver Wing.
La mesa directiva pospuso su
decisión final en esa junta y los
administradores del distrito escolar,
incluyendo a la directora Ruth Díaz
de León, aceptaron que el distrito no
se había comunicado de manera
apropiada con los padres.
Pero Anthony Millican, director de
comunicaciones para el Distrito Escolar de Chula Vista, dijo que la
supuesta falta de comunicación entre el distrito y los padres es cuestión
de opinión.
El miembro de la mesa directiva,
Eduardo Reyes, quien fue electo junto
a otros dos nuevos miembros en
Noviembre, dijo que la colocación de
la high school fue aprobada desde
antes que los nuevos miembros
llegaran a la mesa directiva.
Reyes dijo que cuando supieron de
este tema, todo lo que quedaba era
votar por la selección de la compañía
constructora que se encargará de
construir el edificio de dos pisos.
“Nuestras manos estaban atadas,
esto ya había sido aprobado”, dijo.
Hay varias preocupaciones de
seguridad que los padres de Silver
Wing han declarado acerca de tener
una high school en las instalaciones
de una primaria, no solo el haber sido
mantenidos fuera de la discusión.
Una maestra de Silver Wing, que
pidió permanecer de manera anónima
por miedo a represalias, resumió esas
preocupaciones:

San Diegans ask for justice in Ayotzinapa
The school board tabled that decision at that meeting, and district administrators, including Silver Wing
Principal Ruth Diaz de Leon, accepted the district had not communicated properly with parents.
But Anthony Millican, director of
communications for the Chula Vista
Elementary School District, said that
the supposed lack of communication
between district and parents is a matter of opinion.
Board member Eduardo Reyes,
who was elected along with two other
new board members in November,
said placement of the high school had
been approved since before the new
board members came on board.
Reyes said that by the time they
were told about this issue, all that was
left to do was to vote on the construction bid for a two-story building.
“Our hads were tied, this had already been approved,” he said.
There are several safety concerns
Silver Wing parents have voiced
about having a high school on the elementary school campus, not only
having been left out of the discussion.
A Silver Wing teacher, who asked
to remain anonymous for fear of retribution, summed up those concerns:
“It is completely inappropriate to
have high school students on the same
campus (as elementary school students),” the teacher said. “I have an
extensive background in child development. It’s just wrong developmentally. Besides the fact that stakeholders did not have an opportunity to
share, the parking is going to be a real

The Anointed Son
By Mimi Pollack
It couldn’t always have been easy
growing up as part of “Chicano theater royalty” or a Latino dynasty, yet
Lakin Valdez, son of Luis and Lupe
Valdez, comes across with ease and
grace. The youngest of three brothers, all of them working in various
aspects of theater, film, and television,
Lakin is unassuming, smart and
thoughtful.
He glowed with pride when talking about his older brothers, Kinan and
Anahuac. He was aware of the
legacy he is following as the son of
Luis Valdez, the man who founded
El Teatro Campesino, wrote and directed Zoot Suit and directed La
Bamba. It is obvious that the Valdez
clan is very close, and they take pride
in each other’s accomplishments.
Lakin had an unusual childhood as
he grew up traveling around the
country with a large group of Latino
community artists committed to social change. He was even born on
the same day his father finished writing Zoot Suit. His whole life, he has
been surrounded by artists, such as
Edward James Olmos, who had one
of the leads in Zoot Suit.
Lakin wryly observed that the performance troupe Culture Clash had
played roles in his father’s productions, and now he was playing roles
in their productions, such as El Henry,
written by Herbert Siguenza, which
SD REP presented last summer.
This is the second time Lakin will Lakin Valdez, considered “Chicano theater royalty”, will star

upbeat. A roaming belt seller,
Estrada said sales had increased a bit since January, the
notorious Mexican month of
bill-paying for everything from
government taxes to the family vacation over the Christmas
holidays.
Perhaps best of all, Estrada
noted that he had sold four
belts on this day to “Americanos,” the writer included.
“Barely this year (US tourists)
started coming,” the street
vendor said. Although Estrada
said inspectors had confiscated
two belts from him earlier in
the day, he was quick to add
that making a living selling the
products “was worth the risk.”
Above all, downtown Juarez
on weekends resembles a musical carnival. At the intersection of Avenida Juarez and
16th de Septiembre, an indigenous Raramuri man dressed
in traditional garb played a
sweet violin.
Stationed up the plaza near
the cathedral, German Martinez
and fellow members of Tamborazo Zacatecano pounded
out a brassy, percussion-driven
sound, the musical genre that is
the massive soundtrack every
year to Aguascalientes’ San
Marcos Fair, Mexico’s largest
spring fair.
Band spokeswoman Estefania Romo defined the tambora sound as a sort of “country music” that is popular in
Veracruz, Tamaulipas, Zacatecas and other states. In addition to playing for tips in the
downtown plaza, Tamborazo
Zacetacano does parties and
other events, she said.
Not far from the frenzied
beats and foot-stomping bursts
of trumpet, another band let
loose with an entirely different
sound. Attracting an enthusiastic and largely older crowd,
Juarez’s La Franja Fronteriza,
or The Borderline, ground out
their covers of “Let it Be” and
“Proud Mary.” Inside a large
human circle surrounding the
musicians, older women and
couples with big smiles and joyful eyes flashing from their
faces danced on the street to
the anthems of their youth.
Ranging in age from their
40s to 70s, the members of La
Franja Fronteriza are seasoned
veterans of Juarez’s rock music scene. Formed about five
years ago, La Franja Fronteriza
is composed of drummer and
singer Paco Martinez; Ricardo
“Kalin” Lujan Gonzalez, guitar
and keyboards; Victor Hugo
Arecco, drums and percussion;
Fernando Flores, lead guitar;
and Demetrio Garcia, bass guitar.
“It’s our intention to preserve
the musical genre that moved
Juarez before,” Martinez told
FNS. Like the other street musicians, La Franja Fronteriza
relies on tips to keep the music
flowing. Martinez said the tip
money beats the long hours and
low pay many musicians put in
at the city’s many bars.
“It’s better here,” the rockn-roller insisted. “We don’t
want to turn ourselves into
slaves. Many colleagues are
working like that because they
have no other alternative.”
Paco’s brother, Mauro Martinez, contended that the downtown revitalization and the
opening up of the big plaza has
served both the musicians and
public well. “It’s better than
before. People walk easier and
more peacefully,” Mauro said.
Featuring English-language
lyrics, La Franja Fronteriza has
something of a following on the
other side of the border. Paco
Martinez said the group had
been invited to perform in El
Paso, Los Angeles, Chicago
and other U.S. cities, but could
not comply for one simple reason. “We don’t have visas,” the
singer sighed. Meantime,
Martinez implored his northern
neighbors to come and see the
group on its home turf.
“Don’t be afraid to visit the
neighbor city of Juarez,”
Martinez urged. “We love you,
USA!”
If anything, the accent on
downtown Juarez’s outdoor
musical scene is on rock. Every Saturday and Sunday, from
late morning to early evening,
visitors can catch many electrified bands in a large zone extending from the big plaza to the

outdoor Velarde Street commercial corridor off Avenida
Vicente Guerrero. On Sunday
afternoons, the scene is even
bigger with additional bands
performing at the Bazar del
Monu held astride the Benito
Juarez Monument farther down
on Vicente Guerrero.
At the Velarde Street corridor’s entrance, the three members of Los Lagartos, or The
Alligators, took a pause in their
afternoon repertoire of “Rollover Beethoven” and other
songs heartily delivered in the
rockabilly style. An aspiring
songwriter, Alberto Griego,
tagged along with the crew.
A singer with an Elvis-like
inflection who plucks a mean
cello bass, 23-year-old Dorian
Rodriguez took a moment to
speak with FNS about the
group’s music and recording
plans.
Rodriguez rattled off several reasons why he likes
rockabilly: “The rhythm, the
style of the time, the dance,
how it was danced, the style
of dress.”
Besides Dorian, the trio includes his 22-year-old brother
Edwin Rodriguez on guitar and
Juan “The Ghost” Silva on
drums. A young man with a
stubble beard and a healthy
head of hair, Edwin was dressed in a psychedelic colored tshirt emblazoned with the
name “Woodstock” on the
front. The t-shirt was a gift, he
said.
Many musicians are flocking to the downtown street
scene, putting a cramp on tips,
Dorian said. “We started out
good but it’s slowed down,” the
bassist said about the weekend
take. “There is a lot of competition. There are a lot of bands
in the downtown.”
By late afternoon, another
band kicked out the jams near
the spot where La Franja
Fronteriza earlier played. Distinct from the softer rock of La
Franja Fronteriza or the rockabilly of Los Lagartos, the three
players of Roller Papers create a heavier sound in their renditions of classics like “Crimson and Clover” and “Radar
Love.”
Guitarist and singer Esteban
Martinez mentioned The Doors,
Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and
Jimi Hendrix as other favorites
of the band. Attired in check-
ered shirts with long hair tumbling over the their shoulders,
Martinez and the bassist look
like countercultural twins, while
the drummer sports a Jimi
Hendrix Afro in the making.
But make no mistake about
it. Roller Papers is a young
band, and Martinez a crossborder baby. Only 24 years of
age, he grew up seeped in rock
n’ roll as he learned English
on a seven-year journey into
the deep reaches of Migrant
America-El Paso, Kansas City,
Denver City in Texas and the
little town of Cuba, New
Mexico.
“It’s a border and we share
two cultures,” Martinez commented on the popularity of rock
in Juarez. The young rocker
and his band mates are part of
a musical community that now
transcends multiple generations.
If the veteranos like La Franja
Fronteriza are the grandfathers
and fathers, groups such as
Roller Papers and Los Lagartos
are the children and grandchildren following in their rock elders’ boogie steps.
“We’re friends, we all know
each other,” Martinez said.
Roller Papers’ front man even
credited an earlier collaboration with Edwin Rodriguez for
helping spur the current outdoor scene with performances
at the Velarde Street corridor
several years ago.
But like La Franja Fronteriza, Roller Papers probably
won’t be playing at a U.S.
venue anytime soon. That’s
because of a problem related
to a word in the group’s name.
“We don’t have papers, passports,” Martinez said. Instead,
the musician extended an inviting hand to music lovers in
El Norte. “Every weekend, the
downtown of Juarez is a party,”
Martinez added. “It’s very
beautiful here in Juarez. You
have to get to know it, not only
the bad.”
Shifting philosophical gears
into overdrive, Martinez laid out
his group’s heady mission.
“Our purpose is to make sure
rock n’ roll doesn’t die,” the
border rockero vowed.

The San Diego Latino Film Festival
In Its New Home
By Geneva Gámez-Vallejo
Come March 12 -22 expect
more traffic than usual at the
mall, as The San Diego Latino
Film Festival makes it’s 22nd
round with much anticipation
at its new venue. For many, it’s
become almost habit to expect
the festival to be at Mission
Valley’s Hazard Center, however, as the festival continues
to grow in every angle, so does
its ambition to garner more
ticket sales and sponsorship
opportunities. As a result, this
year, the SDLFF has launched
into a new venture hand in hand
with AMC’s Fashion Valley 18
theaters, calling it its new home
for the duration of its run.
Ethan Van Thillo, Director
and Founder of The San Diego Latino Film Festival expressed great enthusiasm towards this brave move. “With
the film festival now being at
one of San Diego’s number one
destinations (i.e. Simon Fashion Valley Mall), we not only
expect more attendees, but we
also expect more organizations
and corporate partners to get
involved. The Simon Fashion
Valley Mall attracts over 18
million visitors per year. Additionally, many of the stores in
the mall are partnering with us
this year.”
With that in mind, make sure
to take the Friars Rd. exit west
when attending. Other notable
changes for the festival include
the first-ever Creative Careers
Expo. That’s right, who
would’ve thought going to the
movies = career opportunity.
The Expo is looking beyond just
film and media says Van Thillo.
“We’re partnering up with the
Jacobs Center for Non-Profit
Innovation on this Expo, because the lack of diversity in
most creative careers is staggering. We need more young
Latinos, African Americans
and immigrant youth to get involved in careers in technology,
software, visual arts, journalism, film/video, music, fashion
and more.” The event is free
with keynote speakers, guest
celebrities, booths representing
over 11 creative industries,
hands-on workshops, live music and video game competitions. The Expo will take place
on Saturday, March 14 from 10
a.m. - 4 p.m.
As it is tradition, with the festival come latin films from all
over and with them some of
their celebrity artists. In the
past, SDLFF has had the honor
of being host to filmmakers like
recent Oscar winner Alejandro
González Iñarritu, also Oscar
winner Alfonso Cuarón, Gaél
García Bernal among others.
This year’s celebrity line-up
includes Kate del Castillo, Edward James Olmos, Sandra
Echeverria, Maria Rojo, and
Adal Ramones to name a few.
There’s no additional cost to
meeting the artists, they will
also answer Q & A’s before
their films.
There are a number of films
you should take advantage of
during the festival, some cre-
ate a lot of buzz because of the
renowned participation of the
actors in them, others because
you’ve seen them advertised.
Don’t bypass those films you
normally wouldn’t have the
opportunity to see though, for
example, short films usually
surprise with remarkable creativity and often get overshadowed. If you’re undecided on
which ones to see, “Transito”
and “Los Contreras Family”
sound like a good start. The
must see movies according to
the very guy bringing it all to
you are: “Messi”, a documentary about an Argentinian boy
who dreamed of becoming a
professional soccer player and
instead became the world’s
greatest soccer player ever.
“Iglesia’s brilliant cinematic
lens captures Messi’s awe-inspiring prowess of the sport. A
true experience for any supporter of the beautiful game”
confirmed Van Thillo.
He also recommends “El
Objeto Antes Llamada Disco” , a concert documentary
that follows the rock band,
Café Tacvba, as they record
their most recent album. Another music related feature this
year is “Gloria”, controversial pop icon, Gloria Trevi, delivers the biopic many have
been waiting for about how
she made it to stardom, her time
behind bars and her release.
“Muerte In Buenos Aires” is
a new thriller starring Oscar
nominated actor, Demian Bichir, where he plays a family man
and a detective who must solve
a mysterious crime. All takes
plays in Buenos Aires in the
1980s. Finally, if you’re in for
a little laugh don’t miss “Delirium” about three friends
who decide to make a low budget film. The production goes
unsurprisingly off-course, leading to a situation that catapults
the trio into the center of the
public’s eye for all the wrong
reasons.
There seems to be a little
something for everyone at festival, for example the Student
Outreach Screenings. This is
a program that allows elementary thru high school students
from local schools to attend the
film festival for free. “This
year’s free screenings will
take place March 16-19, from
10 a.m. -12 p.m. It’s a great
opportunity for youth to see
Latino Cinema for the first
time and experience the film
festival” says Van Thillo. He
hopes that students will in turn
continue to attend the festival
as they get older.
SDLFF definitely plays an
important role in the region’s
cultural landscape, attracting
over 20,000 people each year,
promoting the region and bringing in tourism from Baja California; as well as from Los
Angeles, Riverside, Orange
County, and Imperial Counties.
The festival, however, is just
a part of a much larger impact
that the overall organization has
on the region.
Van Thillo explains that “over
the years, Media Arts Center
San Diego has provided over
two million dollars via its production opportunities, fiscal
sponsorship or teaching opportunities back to local San Diego/Tijuana filmmakers/media
makers. Additionally, MACSD
has educated thousands of
youth and adults in video production/technology training, allowing these individuals to get
careers in the industry or find
new educational opportunities.
Finally, MACSD’s redevelopment and community development efforts in connection
with its’ Digital Gym community technology center and
movie theater, has helped transform a once underdeveloped
area in North Park. Now, in
addition to our facility, local restaurants have come in, new retail stores have arrived, and
we’ve create a vibrant and
growing neighborhood.”

appear in a SD REP production. Last summer he starred
in “El Henry”. This time, he will
star in “Oedipus El Rey”, a
new play, written by Luis
Alfaro and directed by Sam
Woodhouse that will run March
7th through March 29th at the
Lyceum Theater. In both plays,
his role was and is that of the
prodigal or anointed son coming home and struggling with
his destiny.
In real life though, Lakin
doesn’t seem to struggle at all.
He is grateful for every opportunity and takes pride in all that
he has done.
He has worked as an actor,
writer, and director. He served
as El Teatro Campesino’s Associate Artistic Director from
the years 2000-2005.Since
2004, he has written, directed
and performed in over a dozen
plays, culminating in work that
reflects the rich history and vibrant culture of the Latino/
Chicano community. He is the
recipient of two NPN Creation
Fund awards, a Zellerbach
award, and an NEA Access to
Excellence award for his generative work. As a stage actor, he has performed with
Campo Santo, San Jose Rep,
San Diego REP, La Jolla Playhouse, Goodman Theatre,
Marin Theatre Company,
Magic Theatre, L.A. Theatre
Works and El Teatro
Campesino.
Oedipus El Rey is the acclaimed playwright Luis
Alfaro’s vision of the Greek
classic, blending Greek mysticism, Mexican ritual and Southern California’s barrio culture.
Lakin commented that Alfaro’s
talent is in giving new meaning
to something relegated to the
past, and making it relevant
now. Lakin confided that it was
a way of taking a classic and
transforming it into a modern
play of youth and hubris, of
young men of color looking for
opportunity and options and
finding none, unless they can
transcend their fate. Of course,
it is also a play of the passionate love of a mother and son
and promises to be a play full
of tension, desire and eroticism.
It is a role that Lakin was
born to play with his natural
sensuality and social consciousness.

support of their parents,” said
Elena Marques, co-coordinator for the Comité Acción
Ayotzinapa.
Some 30 people joined the
march in front of the Mexican
Consulate around 1 p.m. From
there, the march continued to
the NBC news building in
downtown San Diego.
“Parents of the missing students have keep telling the
world, ‘Please don’t forget
about us,’ so this is our way of
telling them we won’t forget
about their plight,” said Marques, who is of Portuguese origin.
Manny Aguilar, an activist
from Los Angeles who came
to San Diego to join the march,
said that he wanted Latino
youth in San Diego “to stop
being so indifferent to what is
happening and to stop worrying about the Chargers stadium,
and instead to focus on the social issues going on around the
world, which affect all of us.”
Aguilar added that “our
people whould stop wasting
time in front of the computer
all day long, and they should
learn what is really happening
in Mexico and even in the
streets of the United States.”
During the hour that the activists were in front of the
Mexican Consulate, the offices
were closed, being a Saturday.
Clara Gomez, a mother who
lives and San Diego but emigrated from Mexico, said she
wanted to join the march to
raise her voice.
“I’m very mad for what is
going on in Mexico”, she said.
Alvarez, the uncle of one of
the 43 missing students, said
that his brother’s life has
changed so much since his son
went missing.
“He doesn’t eat, he is only
focused on finding my nephew,” he said. “He cries a lot,
but he doesn’t give up. When
he sees people around the
world marching and protesting
like today here in San Diego,
he said he doesn’t lose his faith
that he will find his son alive.”

Silver Wing Elementary parents: “We were ignored” Calendar of Events:...............................

issue as well. There is already
a lot of traffic. They are on a
scattered schedule but parents
get into arguments all the time
and some staff at the high school
keep telling the parents that the
parents cannot use the overflow
parking. Ms. Diaz De Leon said
that it is shared. And that is not
happening. They put up a fence
and then they put green plastic
around it. I think students will
be more curious than ever.”
Surber said that she thinks
this wouldn’t have happened if
Silver Wing was in the eastern
side of the school district, in the
Eastlake or Otay Ranch areas.
“For too long our community
has been ignored, but we will
raise our voices, and will de-
mand an explanation,” she said.
Surber said they have reached out to local elected officials
for help.
San Diego Councilmember
David Alvarez, which represents the area where Silver
Wing is located, sent a representative to the February18th
board meeting to learn more
about this issue.
“The charter school siting at
Silver Wing Elementary School
was recently brought to my
attention by concerned parents
and members of the community,” Alvarez said. “Although
plans for the charter school
began in 2012, it is apparent
that community input and communication were left out of the
process. It is always important
for public entities to find ways
to remain open and transparent with the public. I have requested that the Chula Vista
School District keep my office
informed on this project, as well
as future projects impacting the
community.”
At the end of the day, the
Silver Wing teacher said that
“I do not think there was transparency in this case. There
was a lack of communication
since May 2013.”
Surber and other parents said
they will continue to press the
school district to stop construction of CVLCC High School on
the Silver Wing campus.
“Even if nothing changes,
we want our voices to be
heard,” she said. “They will not
ignore us anymore.”

El regidor David Álvarez,

a un representante a la junta

“La escuela charter ubicada
en la Primaria Silver Wing fue
traída a mi atención recientemente por padres preocupados
y miembros de la comunidad”,
dijo Álvarez. “Aunque los
planes de esta escuela charter

MARCH 6, 2015
LA PRENSA SAN DIEGO
A Charter High School on an Elementary
School Campus??
I
t is hard for us to wrap our mind
around the fact that a school board
and the district superintendent
would think that it would be a good
idea to put a charter high school on a
public elementary school district campus! Yet that is what has occurred at Silver Wing Elementary School in Southwest Chula Vista.
What is even more befuddling is the
fact that parents and the community of
the public elementary school district
were left out of the loop, there was very
little public communication and little if
any public input into the decision.
What started out as the temporary
placement of a few portable bungalows
to house the Dual Emersion high school
quickly turned into a permanent home!
A two-story complex is set to be built
on Silver Wing Elementary School property. The high school and the elementary
school will be separated by a chain link
fence!
Compounding the issue is that Chula
Vista Elementary School District is guaranteeing the loan which will be taken out
by the private enterprise for the construction of the edifice. If the private enterprise defaults on the loan, the Chula Vista
Elementary School District is on the
hook for the balance due. When does an
elementary school district become a business partner with a private enterprise?
And to top it off the private enterprise
that runs the charter school is not even
going to pay rent for the use of public
school land!
This has turned out to be a one-way deal
that totally favors the high school charter with no discernable benefit to the
school district. As a business deal, it is a
bad deal. The District will provide both
the land and the money for the private
enterprise with no income in return.
As an educational benefit, again we see
no direct correlation that benefits the
District. The Silver Wing Elementary
school children will not even be able to
attend the new charter high school on
their campus due to the rules and regulations pertaining to enrollment at the
charter high school.
Why this would occur we don’t know.
That is the real problem with this whole
deal: the parents and the community’s
right to know was abducted by the Superintendent, Francisco Escobedo, and
the previous school board.
For parents of students who attend public schools, education is a very personal
and vital matter to them. For a school to
succeed in the education of the children
it requires parent participation, openness,
and communication. The openness and
communication did not occur; the overall deal was done behind school board
doors with very little, if any, transparency. It is reprehensible that a Superintendent and School Board would act in
such a manner!
The new school board, with three newly
elected board members, found their
hands tied to the deal. Backing away from
approving the bid to build the campus
could have resulted in a multi-million
dollar lawsuit. The building of the campus will move forward.
The parents of the Silver Wing community vow to continue the fight opposing the school. The best tool available to
them will be with the next school board
election where they can register their
disgust at the polls. And the parents
should hold the Superintendent accountable for his actions.
One thing we know for sure this sort
of action would have never taken place
on the East side of Chula Vista, at
Cameron School for example. But because it was a school in South West
Chula Vista, District leaders felt it was
okay to ignore the residents of the area
– reprehensible!
Petulancia, arrogancia…de Netanyahu
Por Humberto Caspa, Ph.D.
P5+1, está en pleno proceso de un tratado que
detendría a los iraníes adquirir armamento
nuclear. Dicho tratado permitiría a Irán
desarrollar plantas nucleares solo para uso
doméstico y no para la creación de armamento
bélico. A Irán, por su parte, se le levantaría el
embargo económico y otras restricciones
políticas, las cuales fueron precisamente
castigos de la comunidad mundial por buscar
este tipo de armamentos.
Netanyahu no tiene una alternativa real o una
opción que promueva el diálogo y colaboración.
Según sus cálculos, el conflicto del Medio
Oriente tiene sólo dos colores: blanco y negro.
En la forma cómo se expresó en el Congreso,
la única alternativa viable para resolver el
conflicto es la guerra. Es decir, bombardear
las plantas nucleares de Irán hasta que, como
sucedió con Iraq, disminuya su arsenal y poder
bélico-político en la región.
Por obvias razones, un conflicto de tal alcance
radicalizaría a todos los países islámicos del
Medio Oriente, incluyendo a los aliados de
Estados Unidos. En vez de afectar negativamente el poderío militar de Irán se estaría
incrementando su influencia política en la región.
Así, Netanyahu no sólo vino a insultar la
racionalidad de la política internacional del
gobierno de Obama, sino también a provocar
la desunión de los norteamericanos. Por su
parte, su ponencia en el Congreso hizo un daño
profundo a su país, al crear un precedente de
desconfianza con el gobierno norteamericano.
Finalmente, John Boehner y los republicanos,
quienes hicieron lo imposible para que
Netanyahu pueda deliberar sus palabras en el
Congreso, simplemente lapidaron las intenciones de sus candidatos de volver a la Casa
Blanca en el 2016.
La visita del primer ministro israelí Benjamín
Netanyahu fue un acto de arrogancia, un insulto
a la decencia del pueblo norteamericano. No

Latinos and the 2016 Presidential Chess Game
By Angelo Falcón
As a result of the Republican capture of both
houses of Congress last year, there is a serious
need for some creative strategizing by Latino
political progressives. While for many the focus will be supporting a Hillary Clinton presidency and making her campaign responsive to
the Latino community (including pushing for a
Latino Vice President), the Latino political
agenda for the next couple of years needs to
be much more than this. With the Presidential
campaign season comes a new political dynamic that the Latino community needs to exploit. It is very much a political chess game
with Obama, the Democrats and the Republicans all using Latinos as pawns in their struggle
for power.
While in the last couple of years, Latinos
have grown increasingly critical of President
Obama, especially about his continual broken
promises on immigration reform, pressure to
get him to adopt executive actions to limit deportations was successful. NCLR’s Janet
Murguia’s calling the President out as
“deporter-in-chief” last year crystallized the
pressure on Obama that moved the needle on
this issue. The current legal challenge to the
Presidents executive action on immigration,
while raising concerns among immigration advocates, represents a major political victory for
the President and the Democrats in fully polarizing the immigration issue in a way that guarantees Latino support of the Democrats in ways
that could promote greater Latino voter participation in 2016. This Republican legal challenge is a move in a complicated political chess
game that Obama has adroitly forced to his
political advantage, literally using Latinos as
political pawns.
However, it would be unfortunate if Latino
advocates settle on a strategy that merely defends the President’s immigration executive
action. Once the legal challenge to it fails
(which by every indication it will), Latinos
should be ready to continue to pressure the
President and Democrats to add to the categories of Latino and other undocumented immigrants that would be eligible to be authorized
by the President.
This should go hand in hand with a strategy
to attack the Senate’s comprehensive immigration proposal, known as the “Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration
Modernization Act,” or S. 744, as too punitive
toward immigrants. Rather than accepting this
awful legislation as some sort of model to be
supported after 2016, Latino leaders need to
reject it and begin immediately to develop a
more humane and comprehensive approach to
immigration reform to promote during the Presidential election and after. The notion that the
Republicans or the Democrats have to come
up with a plan should now turn into Latinos
pointing out that the have both lost their credibility to do so and it is now our turn. The possibility of being able to make Republicans more
defensive on the immigration issue during the
Presidential general election and pressure the
Clinton and the Democratic Party to be even
more supportive of a more progressive approach to immigration reform need to be an
operating assumptions of Latino political
strategizing.
The 2016 Presidential campaign is also an
opportunity for Latino political leaders to look
to identify political priorities beyond immigration reform. If Republicans can be made more
defensive on the immigration issue, they may
be more open to being supportive of other matters of particular interest to the Latino community. This includes a revision of the Voting
Rights Act that is reflective of the growth and
new settlement patterns of Latinos, issues of
economic equality, fair representation in the
federal bureaucracy, greater affordable housing, extending federal benefits to immigrants
and the territories, expanded workers’ rights,
more federal attention to urban policy, limit the
role of money in politics and so on. However,
these must to be framed in ways that go beyond the Democratic Party’s “trickle-down
progressivism” that it has practiced for far too
long that keeps Latinos as political outsiders. It
should be developed in ways that actually fully
reach and engage our community. The Latino
political leadership needs to create a community-based national policy agenda that includes
but goes beyond immigration reform, and unifies the vast majority of Latinos and our advocates, forming coalitions with others to make
them political viable. This Latino leadership
needs to be more visible and accountable to
their community, as opposed to operating as a
shadow leadership that advises Democratic
leaders and operatives in back rooms.
In the process of doing so, Latino leaders
need to expose the Right’s agenda fully and
aggressively for our community for its lack of
substance and harmful effects. At the same
time, the Latino leadership needs to take more
seriously take on the Democratic Party and its
Presidential candidate’s campaign for continually taking the Latino community for granted.
They should demand the party make a greater
investment in promoting Latino candidates and
party leaders, and by putting more resources
into the field in Latino neighborhoods and progressive political organizations during the Presidential election and beyond.
2016 is almost here and so time is short for
Latino leaders to begin strategizing for change.
Not doing so will condemn Latinos to continue
being second-class citizens, even for the majority who are US citizens. Latinos may be
pawns in this 2016 Presidential chess game,
but we need to be smart enough to not continue to be en prise.

Cuban Minnie Minoso called me Chico ¡ASK A MEXICAN!
By Raoul Lowery Contreras
Aguirre who later was a star pitcher with the
Detroit Tigers. I played catch with a huge guy
named Luke Easter the first Black player in
the American League. But my favorite was
Minnie Minoso. He taught me how to slide into
second base. He led the majors in triples and
stolen bases three times each, he was that good.
Out of Mexico just six years, my Spanish was
good and because his English wasn’t, the Cuban enjoyed having me around because when
he needed help with a word, I helped him just
like I helped my Grandmother who never
learned English.
He was so popular that one night in my neighborhood theater we were watching a movie
about revolution in Cuba in which there was a
scene of a Black Cuban carrying a machete
and I cried “Minnie Minoso!” and the audience
started clapping.
We lost him in San Diego when the parent
Cleveland Indians called him up to join Luke
Easter. He played 17 seasons in the American
League, 12 with the Chicago White Sox. He
was the first Black on the Chicago White Sox.
Minnie Minoso had a .298 lifetime batting average and career 186 homers and 1,023 RBIs.
He also led the American League in triples and
steals three times in each category. He made
the American League All-Star team nine times.
Another Cuban ball player, Chicago White
Sox shortstop Alexei Ramirez says, “I think that
everybody has to respect his legacy because
he did so much for the Latin players, for the
Cubans, for everybody because when he arrived here it was a tough time because of racism and discrimination. He wrote a huge legacy
for all of us.”
That’s well and good but I remember him
best for running back towards the centerfield
wall at Lane Field one Saturday afternoon in
1949, turning and realizing that the ball was hit
too high and would be a home run, he threw his
mitt into the air and knocked the ball down.
The opposing manager came flying out of
his dugout screaming that it was a fair home
run; the crowd booed him, the umpires agreed
with him, the crowd booed them.
The next day at batting practice, Minnie threw
his mitt up and laughingly asked me in Spanish
if I enjoyed his play to stop the home run the
day before. We laughed and I threw my glove
up in the air. We laughed more.
He died Sunday March 1st, he was 90 years
old.
Saturnino Orestes Armas Minoso Arrieta died
a few days ago in Chicago. Baseball fans knew
him as Minnie Minoso, the second Black player
in Major League Baseball’s American League;
the first Black Hispanic star.
Before the majors he played center field on
the Triple AAA San Diego Padres in San Diego, California. The team played in Lane Field,
a wooden stadium with 10,000 seats on San
Diego Bay.
He called me “Chico.”
I was the luckiest kid in San Diego in 1949.
My mother married my step-father, a rookie
San Diego police officer who was earning $150
a month as a police officer. He moonlighted as
security at the “wrassling” and boxing matches
at the downtown Coliseum, just a mile from
my home at night and at daytime weekend
baseball games of the Pacific Coast League
San Diego Padres, the very team my cousin
Ted Williams had played for before he went to
Boston and I arrived from Mexico.
I was a big fan of Gorgeous George and hated
Mr. Moto of professional wrestling. I adored
my neighbor Light Heavyweight Champion of
the world, boxing’s premier knockout artist,
Archie Moore, the Mongoose, who had 105
knockouts in his career and was the only man
ever to knock Heavyweight Champ Rocky
Marciano off his feet.
It was my pleasure to go to the fights and to
“wrassling” when my step-father worked them;
it was free and delightful to yell and scream
along with a couple thousand others. I got to
meet all the wrestlers and boxers. I even met
“Pappy” Boyington, the famous U.S. Marine
pilot that shot down 26 Japanese planes in World
War Two who was the first Medal of Honor
winner I met. He was a referee.
I knew it was a big deal because my Navy
veteran step-father didn’t like Marines but he
like Boyington who refereed “wrassling”
matches. My high school Graphics Arts teacher
who flew with Boyington’s famous “Black
Sheep” Marine fighter squadron introduced
“Pappy” to me. Much to his surprise, “Colonel
Boyington” tousled my hair and said, “I remember you from the Coliseum.” Good memory ten
years later.
But my real pleasure came on Saturday and
Sunday afternoons during baseball when my
step-dad worked security for Padre Games.
We entered the park through the ball player’s
entrance; I got to go on the practice field and Contreras formerly wrote for Creators Synshag balls for the players. I met a skinny Mexi- dicate and the New American News Service

Learning to Be a Citizen
By Lee H. Hamilton
The question usually comes toward the end
of a public meeting. Some knotty problem is
being discussed, and someone in the audience
will raise his or her hand and ask, “Okay, so
what can I do about it?”
I love that question. Not because I’ve ever
answered it to my satisfaction, but because it
bespeaks such a constructive outlook.
The usual advice that politicians give is to vote,
work for a candidate, let your elected officials
know what you think, and participate in community life. This is good counsel — but only as far
as it goes. With a little more time now to answer
the question, I’d add a few other points.
First, it’s important that citizens appreciate
how hard it is to solve problems in a representative democracy. Every issue — even a stop
sign at a corner — is more complex than it
appears. Understanding and appreciating the
complexities is the only way to see how and
where you can make progress.
It’s also vital to learn that solving problems
means working with all kinds of people. It requires bringing different points of view together,
developing connections to key players in your
community, talking face-to-face with others who
may not agree with you, and communicating
your ideas effectively — including to the me-
dia. It also means learning that differences can
exist without personal animosity, and recognizing the common ground on which you can build
agreement.
There is a key lesson that comes from trying
to solve a particular problem: it tends to make
you less ideological and more pragmatic. It
forces you to examine the options in front of
you and to figure out what resources are at
hand to help you pursue them.
Politics is not a game for everyone, but there
are other ways to be involved in community
life. Regardless of the avenue they choose, it’s
the people who step forward who refresh this
country and make it stronger.
Our Constitution’s preamble begins, “We the
people of the United States, in order to form a
more perfect union....” At heart, that’s what
getting involved means: shouldering the challenges, shared responsibilities, and opportunities that democracy thrusts upon us as we pursue a more perfect union. That’s what I want
to say to the people who ask, “What can I do
about it?” The journey is hard and complicated,
but it’s the most satisfying work I can imagine.

I’m getting on in years myself, I

“Growth Of Racial And Ethnic Minorities In

Health Affairs, showed that the number of
Latinos in nursing homes grew by 54.9
percent between 1999 and 2008, while the
number of gabachos decreased by 10.2
percent. While the researchers blamed
poverty and a lack of access to better
medical options for the increased rates,
maybe all those old gringos are moving out
because they don’t want to spend their last

Punto. The analysis examined 18 weeks of
nine shows, which included the peak of the
2014 midterm election season and its outcome.
News and entertainment media’s underrepresentation and persisting stereotypes of
Latinos have fueled prejudices and misconceptions about the Latino community, according to 2012 NHMC-commissioned studies.
Such bias has also resulted in a diminished
trust of news outlets among Latino audiences.
A 2014 study found that more than 65 percent of Latinos feel that news coverage inaccurately reports on Latino and African-American communities.
In 2014, NHMC launched the Latino Experts Program to increase Latino presence and
perspectives in local news coverage. Over a
two-year span, NHMC assembled more than
100 Latino policy experts in the 12 largest
U.S. cities to train them to speak on television
and to connect them with local broadcast stations.
“I look forward to working with the networks covered in this study to elevate Latino
expert voices on their Sunday shows,”

Latino Voices Missing in Sunday News
Talk Shows, New Report Finds
A report released Wednesday by Media
Matters for America (MMFA) found that
Latino voices are underrepresented in Sunday news talk shows.
Despite making up 17 percent of the U.S.
population, Latinos made up only seven percent of guests on English-language Sunday
shows, the study found. The report also revealed the limited range of topics Latino guests
are invited to discuss on the shows, with 46
percent speaking about immigration issues.
“It is unacceptable for Sunday shows to continue excluding Latino experts from discussing all of the most important issues shaping
our country,” stated Alex Nogales, president
and CEO of the National Hispanic Media
Coalition (NHMC). “Media has a responsibility to serve and reflect our nation’s diversity, and it is long past time to get it right.”
Nogales continued, “I applaud Media MatLee Hamilton is Director of the Center on

inaugural season set to start in
September of this year. FUSA
will begin selling 16 Liga

Liga Nacional (Division 2)
teams in 16 cities in Texas,
California, and the Southwest.
Over 700 players will be recruited at four regional combines/tryouts that will be held
in June 2015.
FUSA will not be recruiting
players directly from colleges,
universities, or other professional leagues. FUSA will instead recruit players from the
ranks of the hundreds of thousands of predominantly Hispanic and Latino amateur players that crowd soccer fields
across the US each weekend.
According to FUSA, they
recognize that a number of barriers have hindered the ability
of top Hispanic and Latino
amateur players to make it into
the professional soccer pipeline
in the US. “The language barrier, registration costs, the US
youth soccer pay to play model,
and professional recruitment almost exclusively from colleges
are the main factors that keep
some of the best Hispanic and
Latino players from playing professional soccer,” said Miguel
Perez, Director of Futbol Operations. “While FUSA is an
unprecedented opportunity for
amateur Hispanic and Latino
players to turn pro and get paid
to play the sport they love,
FUSA is also open to players
of all races, ethnicities, language preferences and national
origin.”
“FUSA will be a Hispanic and
Latino community resource infused with cultural pride that
provides homegrown entertainment and opportunity,” said
Perez. According to Perez, the

ou don’t have to be a master chef to create great meals
that your family will love. Simple yet flavorful and
warming dishes are the perfect solution for busy cooks
with hungry families to feed.
Using high-quality ingredients helps guarantee you’re serving
meals you can be proud of, even when you’re short on time. For
delicious dinners, look for ingredients such as Hunt’s® tomatoes
and KRAFT® Parmesan cheese. Hunt’s diced, stewed and whole
tomatoes are peeled using only steam and their sauce is 100 percent natural with no preservatives.
Ranging from a Latin-inspired Chorizo Bolognese to easy
Italian lasagna in a skillet, these recipes combine carefully
chosen ingredients, so you can serve meals rich with flavor
and quality.
