Mes de la Historia de la Mujer: Latas camina el camino

ada marzo, para conmemorar el Mes de la Historia de la Mujer, Dos Mundos honra a las latinas cuyos logros han ayudado y/o inspirado a la comunidad. C Una de las ocho homenajeadas de este año es Verónica Latas, quien ha dedicado

su vida a ayudar a otros a hacer transiciones difíciles en la vida. Originaria de San Benito, Texas, Latas ha pasado gran parte de su vida en el área de Kansas City. Su vida gira en torno a la familia, el trabajo y el cuidado de su mamá, que tiene Alzheimer. “Mi vida siempre se ha tratado de ayudar a la gente”, dijo Latas. “Me encanta ayudar a la gente. Disfruto conocer gente y escuchar sus historias”. La herencia hispana de Latas le ha permitido apoyar a la comunidad en varios trabajos, comenzando con su trabajo en una agencia de empleo. Durante siete años, ayudó a muchos solicitantes, incluidos aquellos que sólo hablaban español, que buscaban trabajo y no sabían por dónde empezar. El deseo de Latas de ayudar a los demás la llevó a trabajar en la industria de cuidados paliativos durante 16 años. Comenzando como recepcionista, su experiencia en reclutamiento la promovió a un puesto de gerente voluntaria. Como administradora de voluntarios, ella contrataba e

“Naturalize 2 Million by 2022” “¡Naturalizar 2 millones para 2022!”

here’s a lot a stake in the mid-term T elections Nov. 8. All 435 U.S. House seats and 35 of 100 U.S. Senate seats are up

Hay un vigoroso impulso en todo el país para engrasar los patines para que dos millones de residentes inmigrantes legales se conviertan en ciudadanos naturalizados para fin de año. La campaña total cuenta con el apoyo de más de 50 grupos no relacionados. Entre ellos se encuentran sindicatos, coaliciones de defensa de inmigrantes y refugiados, organizaciones empresariales, asociaciones industriales y comerciales, líderes religiosos, grupos religiosos y más. Sus esfuerzos incluyen ayudar a los inmigrantes elegibles a través del proceso de naturalización y proporcionar materiales y recursos educativos. Estados Unidos es el hogar de unos nueve millones de residentes legales y portadores de tarjetas verdes. Incluyen trabajadores calificados y no calificados, así como profesionales en negocios, educación, salud, ciencia y tecnología. Tener estos trabajadores inmigrantes residentes ayuda enormemente a aliviar el empeoramiento de la crisis laboral de Estados Unidos. En todas las industrias, las empresas luchan por encontrar y retener trabajadores calificados y no calificados, así como profesionales. Hay escasez de trabajadores portuarios en los puertos de Estados Unidos para descargar barcos y escasez de camioneros para recoger y entregar la carga. Está tensando aún más una crisis de la cadena de suministro ya crítica. Los expertos en seguridad advierten sobre una creciente escasez de profesionales de la ciberseguridad. Los distritos escolares de Estados Unidos están desesperados por maestros, auxiliares docentes, personal de apoyo y conductores de autobuses escolares. Los hospitales, clínicas, hogares y otras instituciones se esfuerzan por llenar un número cada vez mayor de vacantes de enfermería. Apenas hay suficientes veterinarios de animales grandes y pequeños para satisfacer la demanda actual de atención médica para mascotas y animales de consumo. Y para 2030, la falta de veterinarios podría dejar sin atención a 75 millones de mascotas, advierten los expertos. El tentador corolario de “¡Naturalizar 2 millones para 2022!” la campaña es esta. En una elección intermedia en la que la participación es tradicionalmente baja, la afluencia de dos millones de nuevos votantes podría ser una bendición para los candidatos y las causas en las iniciativas electorales.

There’s a vigorous push nationwide to grease the skids for two million legal immigrant residents to become naturalized citizens by year’s end. The all-out campaign is supported by 50-plus unrelated groups. Among them are labor unions, immigrant and refugee advocacy coalitions, business organizations, industry and trade associations, faith leaders, religious groups and more. Their efforts include helping eligible immigrants through the naturalization process and providing educational materials and resources. The U.S. is home to some nine million legal residents and green card holders. They include skilled and unskilled laborers, as well as professionals in business, education, health, science and technology. Having these resident immigrant workers helps mightily to relieve America’s worsening labor crisis. Across industries, businesses are struggling to find and retain skilled and unskilled workers as well as professionals. There’s a shortage of dock workers at America’s ports to unload ships and a shortage of truck drivers to pick up and deliver cargo. It’s further straining an already critical supply chain crisis. Security experts warn of a growing scarcity of cybersecurity professionals. America’s school districts are desperate for teachers, classroom paraprofessionals, support staff and school bus drivers. Hospitals, clinics, homes and other institutions are scrambling to fill swelling numbers of nursing vacancies. There are barely enough large- and small-animal veterinarians to meet current demand for pet and food animal medical care. And by 2030, the lack of veterinarians could leave 75 million pets without care, experts warn. The tantalizing corollary to the “Naturalize 2 Million by 2022!” campaign is this. In a midterm election when turnout is traditionally low, the influx of two million new voters could be a boon for candidates and causes on ballot initiatives.

ay mucho en juego en las elecciones intermedias del 8 de noviembre. Los 435 escaños de la Cámara de Representantes del país y 35 de los 100 escaños del Senado están en juego. Kansas y otros 35 estados elegirán un gobernador. Los escaños abiertos en otras oficinas ejecutivas estatales, legislaturas estatales, juntas de educación y regentes, tribunales supremos y de apelación estatales y más estarán en las boletas electorales en varios estados. Varias jurisdicciones locales en todo el país elegirán funcionarios municipales y aprobarán medidas electorales locales y estatales. La elección presidencial del 2020 atrajo a más estadounidenses que cualquier otra elección en 120 años, según datos registrados por varias organizaciones nacionales, incluida la Oficina del Censo y Pew Research. Dos tercios, el 66,8 por ciento, de la población elegible para votar de Estados Unidos emitió su voto. Kansas rompió un récord de 40 años: el 67,5 por ciento de los votantes acudió a las urnas. La participación electoral en las elecciones intermedias suele caer. Pero este año, los partidos políticos de Estados Unidos podrían contribuir a romper todos los récords anteriores.

Kansas City, Kansas. Su casa de Missouri también funcionaba como refugio para las personas necesitadas del área de Kansas City. Un fraile actual es Israel del Amor Crucificado, que es miembro de la fraternidad desde hace casi 14 años. Del Amor Crucificado, cuya misión en Estados Unidos comenzó en 2018, dijo que la fraternidad ha establecido permanentemente una estrecha relación con la comunidad hispana desde que llegó a Kansas City. “La comunidad latina tiene una fe poderosa”, dijo. “Tenemos una buena relación y es bonito ver esa fé de los latinos: que la siguen buscando. Muchos también se dedican a ayudar a los demás. Se acercan a nuestra comunidad y les entusiasma ayudar a los demás. Al conectarse con nosotros, ellos... son capaces de llegar a los que están sufriendo también». Aliviar el sufrimiento es una piedra angular del ministerio de las Hermanas Pobres de Jesucristo. En concreto, la fraternidad busca conectar a la gente con Dios ayudando a los pobres, ofreciendo múltiples programas comunitarios. Entre ellos, uno en el que el grupo de consagrados y laicos se reúne los martes y sábados para distribuir víveres y alimentos a la gente de la calle. Otro programa es Set Sobrious, un grupo de apoyo que se reúne los miércoles en la Iglesia del Santísimo Sacramento de Kansas City, Kansas, para luchar contra las adicciones. La labor de evangelización también ha sido vital para establecer la fraternidad en la comunidad. Todos los lunes, las hermanas celebran la hora santa. Los jueves, es turno de los frailes. Además, las Hermanas Pobres de Jesucristo ofrecen el retiro para jóvenes «Rescatame”. Las entradas para el próximo retiro, previsto para el 23 y 24 de abril, están a la venta. La casa de las Hermanas Pobres de Jesucristo está abierta a todos los que quieran visitarla, dijo del Amor Crucificado. Los martes y los sábados se celebran reuniones en la casa de las hermanas, a las que puede asistir cualquier persona que quiera participar. Y las personas que necesiten ayuda pueden acudir a la casa o llamar a la fraternidad, dijo del Amor Crucificado. “Nosotros como los Pobres de Jesucristo queremos... agradecer toda la ayuda de la comunidad hispana y pedirles que recen por nosotros, para que Dios nos dé la gracia de perseverar en esta misión», dijo. «Si quieren conocer este trabajo con los pobres, vengan a conocernos y conozcan este amor de llevarlo a la gente y estar junto a los que sufren». Además de su presencia, la gente puede apoyar a las Hermanas Pobres de Jesucristo con alimentos y donaciones monetarias. Las hermanas y los frailes también se mantienen a sí mismos horneando pasteles de queso para venderlos los jueves y haciendo rosarios. La casa de las Hermanas Pobres de Jesucristo se encuentra en el 2226 de la avenida Troup en Kansas City, Kansas.

states – is celebrating 10 years of its presence in the United States with its first house in Kansas City, Kansas. First, the community sisters arrived. Three years later, the friars arrived. Upon their arrival, the friars lived in Kansas City, Missouri, then moved to Kansas City, Kansas. Their Missouri home also functioned as a shelter for Kansas City area people in need. A current friar is the Rev. Israel del Amor Crucificado, who has been a member of the fraternity for almost 14 years. Del Amor Crucificado, whose mission in the United States began in 2018, said the fraternity has permanently established a close relationship with the Hispanic community since arriving in Kansas City. “The Latino community has a powerful faith,” he said. “We have a good relationship … (and) it’s nice to see that faith of the Latinos – that they still seek it. Many are also dedicated to helping others. They reach out to our community and are excited to help others. By connecting with us, they … (are) able to reach out to those who are suffering as well.” Relieving suffering is a cornerstone of the Sisters Poor of Jesus Christ’s ministry. Specifically, the fraternity seeks to connect people with God by helping the poor by offering multiple community programs. They include one in which the group of consecrated and lay people meet on Tuesdays and Saturdays to distribute groceries and food to street people. Another program is Set Sobrious, a support group that meets Wednesdays at Blessed Sacrament Church in Kansas City, Kansas, to fight addictions. Evangelization work also has been vital to establishing the fraternity in the community. Every Monday, the sisters celebrate holy hour. On Thursdays, the friars celebrate. In addition, the Sisters Poor of Jesus Christ also offers a “Rescatame” (“Save Me”), a retreat for young people. Tickets for the next retreat, scheduled for April 23-24, are on sale. The Sisters Poor of Jesus Christ’s house is open to all who want to visit, del Amor Crucificado said. On Tuesdays and Saturdays, there are meetings at the sisters’ house, with anyone who would like to participate welcome to attend. And people who need help are welcome to come to the house or call the fraternity, del Amor Crucificado said. “We as (the) Poor of Jesus Christ want to … (give thanks for) all the help from the Hispanic community and ask them to pray for us, so that God will give us the grace to persevere in this mission,” he said. “If you want to know about this work with the poor, come and meet us and get to know this love of taking it to the people and being together with those who suffer.” Besides their presence, people can support the Sisters Poor of Jesus Christ with their food and monetary donations. The sisters and friars also support themselves by baking cheesecakes to sell on Thursdays and rosaries. The Sisters Poor of Jesus Christ’s home is located at 2226 Troup Ave. in Kansas City, Kansas. For more information or to donate, call (913) 808-2884 or visit www.sisterspoorofjesuschrist.com.

for grabs. Kansas and 35 other states will elect a governor. Open seats in other state executive offices, state legislatures, boards of education and regents, state supreme and appellate courts and more will be on ballots in several states. Various local jurisdictions nationwide will elect municipal officials and approve local and statewide ballot measures. The presidential election in 2020 drew more Americans than any election in 120 years, according to data recorded by several national organizations, including the Census Bureau and Pew Research. Two-thirds – 66.8 percent -- of America’s voting-eligible population cast a ballot. Kansans broke a 40-year record; 67.5 percent of voters went to the polls. Voter turnout in midterm elections typically drops. But this year, America’s political parties could contribute to shattering all previous records.

interpretaba el idioma. Además, Latas se certificó como intérprete bilingüe. Eso le permitió apoyar a los trabajadores sociales, capellanes y enfermeras con pacientes de habla hispana, dijo. “El hospicio se trata de la muerte y el morir... pero también se trata de abrazar la vida y la familia y compartir sus historias”, dijo. “Mi trabajo consistía en reclutar personas y sentarme con los pacientes que se estaban muriendo y escuchar sus historias, sentarme con ellos para que no estuvieran solos. Se sintieron muy tranquilos al saber que no estaban pasando por esto solos y que alguien podría ayudar al personal clínico con la interpretación de principio a fin”. La experiencia hizo que Latas se sintiera más agradecida por su familia y su vida, dijo. También la preparó para apoyar a su madre cuando le diagnosticaron Alzheimer. “Estoy en un lugar completamente diferente”, dijo Latas. “Sin todos esos años… en la industria de cuidados paliativos, no podría estar cuidando a mi mamá,… como lo estoy ahora. Brindándole el amor y el apoyo, y... no sólo para ella,... otras personas en el hogar de ancianos donde se encuentra”. Latas siempre ha admirado a su madre, dijo. Trabajadora migrante cuando Latas era una niña en el sur de Texas, la madre de Latas superó una vida dura que le permitió viajar y mudarse para encontrar mejores oportunidades con esfuerzo y trabajo, recordó Latas. Desde que era adulta, la madre de Latas también había sido su compañera de conciertos, dijo. La relación que construyeron al asistir a conciertos le ha dado la fuerza para superar los desafíos potenciales que plantea el Alzheimer. Y todavía disfrutan de la música juntos. “Ahora le pongo música y bailamos juntas en el hogar de ancianos en el que vive”, dijo Latas. “¡A ella le encanta! La música nunca deja tu corazón, y es algo que podemos hacer juntos”. De igual forma, Latas ha creado relaciones con sus dos hijas. Está orgullosa de ellas y disfruta verlas aceptar su herencia latina, dijo. El esposo de Latas brindó un apoyo vital al hacer que su madre viviera con ellos hasta que tuvo que mudarse a cuidados especiales, dijo. Además de su esposo e hijas, Latas ha sido bendecida con tres hijastros que la aman a ella y a la cultura hispana, dijo. El consejo de Latas para las latinas durante el Mes de la Historia de la Mujer es que se apoyen mutuamente. “Deberíamos estar orgullosos de quiénes somos y de nuestras culturas y abrazarnos unos a otros,” dijo. “Deberíamos animarnos los unos a los otros. Hablar la charla, caminar el camino. No te limites a hablar.

allowed her to support the community across various jobs, starting with her work at a staffing agency. Over seven years, she helped many applicants, including those who only spoke Spanish, who sought work and did not know where to start. Latas’ desire to help others led her to work in the hospice industry for 16 years. Starting as a receptionist, her recruiting background got her promoted to a volunteer manager position. As a volunteer manager, she recruited and interpreted. In addition, Latas got certified as a bilingual interpreter. That enabled her to support social workers, chaplains and nurses with Spanishspeaking patients, she said. “Hospice is about death and dying, … but it is also about embracing life and family and sharing your stories,” she said. “My job was to recruit people and to sit with patients that were dying and listen to their stories – sitting with them so they wouldn’t be alone. They had a lot of comfort in knowing that they weren’t going through it alone and somebody that could help the clinical staff with interpreting from beginning to end.” The experience made Latas more grateful for her family and life, she said. It also prepared her for supporting her mom when her mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. “I’m in a whole different place,” Latas said. “Without all those years … in the hospice industry, I couldn’t be taking care of my mom, … (as) I am now. Providing her the love and support, and … not only for her, … other people in the nursing home where she’s at.” Latas has always admired her mother, she said. A migrant worker when Latas was a girl in South Texas, Latas’ mother overcame a hard life that allowed her to travel and move to find better opportunities with effort and work, Latas recalled. Since adulthood, Latas’ mom also had been her concert buddy, she said. The relationship they built through attending concerts has given her strength to overcome the potential challenges posed by Alzheimer’s. And they still enjoy music together. “Now, I play music for her, and we dance together in the nursing home that she lives in,” Latas said. “She loves it! Music never leaves your heart, and it’s something we can do together.” Similarly, Latas has created relationships with her two daughters. She is proud of them and enjoys seeing them embracing their Latino heritage, she said. Latas’ husband provided vital support by having her mom live with them until she had to move into special care, she said. In addition to her husband and daughters, Latas is blessed with three stepsons who love her and Hispanic culture, she said. Lata’s advice to Latinas during Women’s History Month is to support one another. “(We should) we proud of who we are and our cultures and embrace each other,” she said. “(We should) encourage each other. Talk the talk, walk the walk. Don’t just talk.”

identificar soluciones económicas y sociales a los problemas que afectan a la población latina”, dijo Ramón Venable. “Mis esfuerzos comerciales se centran en la planificación estratégica y el desarrollo comercial para mi grupo de consultoría”. Ramon Venable, quien trabajó en seguros en Kansas City, se aventuró en el campo de participación comunitaria después de terminar su educación. Sirvió en el Comité de Ciudades Hermanas de Guadalajara y se ofreció como voluntaria con la población de la tercera edad en Guadalupe Centers Inc. Es “importante retribuir a la comunidad y marcar una diferencia en la vida de las personas”, dijo Ramon Venable. El voluntariado brinda “una sensación de orgullo por ser parte de algo más que mis intereses” y “es gratificante”, dijo. “Creo que vives más, ya que es bueno para el corazón, la mente y el espíritu”, dijo Ramón Venable. “A todos nos vendría bien un acto de bondad, ya que necesitamos poner la energía de nuestro corazón y alma en lo que tenemos que abordar... las necesidades de la comunidad”. Una influencia en su llamado ha sido el movimiento laboral y su impacto en las latinas, dijo. “Fue importante ver el ejemplo de Luisa Moreno, que organizó a las trabajadoras locales para trabajar juntas”, dijo. “Mirando hacia atrás, allanó el camino para el beneficio de las latinas en la fuerza laboral. Es importante reconocer a la fuerza laboral latina de hoy y apreciar los logros que las mujeres han tenido a lo largo de los años”. Otra influencia es la jueza asociada de la Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos, Sonia Sotomayor. “Se elevó de los desafíos de su vida al nivel más alto. Su actitud y gracia son representativas de las aspiraciones que todas las latinas deberían encarnar”, dijo. Para Ramon Venable, ser latina es profundamente significativo. “Se relaciona con mis raíces y herencia cultural”, dijo. “Esto implica familia, tradición, cultura, fe, unidad, orgullo y la capacidad de hablar dos idiomas. A una edad temprana me enseñaron a trabajar duro y sentirme orgullosa de lo que hago; tener el coraje de… (no) tener miedo de decir que soy una latina orgullosa”. Además de seguir su vocación por quienes la han influenciado, Ramon Venable está casada con William Venable, profesor de la Universidad de Texas-Arlington. Casados desde hace 17 años, tienen cuatro hijos y cuatro nietos. En conmemoración del Mes de la Historia de la Mujer, Ramon Venable aconseja a las latinas que se sientan orgullosas de quienes son. “Respétense a ustedes mismas y trabajen para avanzar en el empoderamiento de otras mujeres”, dijo. Para Ramon Venable es importante celebrar a las mujeres y reconocer los sacrificios y desafíos que han enfrentado. “Es increíble ver lo lejos que han llegado las mujeres en el último siglo”, dijo.

back to the community and to make a difference in people’s lives,” Ramon Venable said. Volunteering provides “a sense of pride in being a part of something more than my interests” and “is gratifying,” she said. “I believe you live longer, as it’s good for the heart, your mind and your spirit,” Ramon Venable said. “We could all use an act of kindness, as we need to put the energy of our heart and soul into what we have to address … community needs.” An influence in Ramon Venable’s calling has been the labor movement and its impact on Latinas, she said. “It was important to see the example of Luisa Moreno, who organized local women workers to work together,” she said. “Looking back, she paved the way for the benefit of Latinas in the workforce. It’s important to recognize the Latina workforce today and appreciate the accomplishments women have achieved over the years.” Another influence is U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor. “She rose from the challenges of her life to the highest level. Her attitude and grace are representative of the aspirations all Latinas should embody,” she said. For Ramon Venable, being Latina is deeply meaningful. “It relates to my roots and cultural heritage,” she said. “This implies family, tradition, culture, faith, unity, pride and the ability to speak two languages. I was taught at a young age to work hard and to have pride in what I do – have the courage to … (not) be afraid to say I am a proud Latina.” In addition to pursuing her calling by those who have influenced her, Ramon Venable is married to William Venable, a University of Texas-Arlington professor. Married for 17 years, they have four children and four grandchildren. In observance of Women’s History Month, Ramon Venable advises Latinas to be proud of who they are. “Have respect for yourself and serve to advance the empowerment of other women,” she said. For Ramon Venable, celebrating women and recognizing the sacrifices and challenges they have faced is important. “It’s amazing to see how far women have come in just the last century,” she said.

Cómo saber qué es un trabajo real y qué es una estafa Los estafadores anuncian los puestos de trabajo de la misma manera que lo hacen los empleadores reales. Utilizan anuncios por internet, sitios web de empleo y redes sociales, y ponen anuncios en el periódico, en la televisión y la radio. ¿Cómo puedes distinguir qué es real y qué no? Las empresas reales con oportunidades de trabajo reales no te van a cobrar por darte un empleo. Y nunca te garantizarán mucho dinero por poco esfuerzo. Eso es siempre una estafa. Si estás buscando un trabajo: ■ Investiga lo más que puedas. Busca en Internet el nombre de la empresa o de la persona que dice que te va a contratar, más las palabras “estafa”, “reseña”, “o “queja”. Revisa lo que dice la gente respecto a esa empresa. ■ Tómate tu tiempo. Antes de aceptar una oferta de trabajo o enviar cualquier información a un posible empleador, revisa la oferta de trabajo o el anuncio con alguien de confianza.

■ No envíes dinero “de vuelta” a tu nuevo jefe. Si alguien te pide que deposites un cheque y luego compres tarjetas de regalo o envíes el dinero “de vuelta” a tu supuesto jefe (o a otra persona) es una estafa. ■ Puede parecer que el cheque ha sido “depositado”, se ha “cobrado” y que los fondos están en tu cuenta.

víctimas de violencia. Aunque la violencia PUBLIC NOTICE PUBLIC NOTICE ocurre entre personas d e to d o g é n e ro, afecta más a mujeres. “ R e co rd e m o s l o s recursos en este Día Internacional de la Mujer para ayudar y apoyar a quienes lo necesiten”, explica. Una persona sufre un ciclo de violencia cuando existe un patrón de agresión que puede ser física, emocional, sexual y económica y es la forma en que la pareja busca mantener el control de la relación. Es difícil salir de ella, advierte Elizabeth Canabal, “porque lo más seguro es que la relación no fue mala al principio y hay sentimientos encontrados: yo lo quiero, va a cambiar, la gente tiene la esperanza de que el abusador en algún momento cambie”. Algunas mujeres se quedan por los hijos, pero las estadísticas muestran que los niños que ven y crecen alrededor de la violencia son víctimas de abuso cuando son adultos o se convierten en abusadores. El mensaje de nuestra especialista: “las estadísticas no mienten, sálganse de ahí, no van a cambiar, no lo he visto nunca (…) que cambie una persona abusadora.” En su consulado de México y en organizaciones aliadas como SAFEHOME tenemos ayuda disponible. Recuerde: nadie se arrepiente de dejar a un abusador. Escuche la entrevista con Elizabeth Canabal en el podcast Voces Consulares en Spotify y en @ConsulMexKan en redes sociales.

Although violence occurs between people of all genders, it affects women more. “Let’s remember the resources on this International Women’s Day to help and support those in need,” she explains A person suffers a cycle of violence when there is a pattern of aggression that can be physical, emotional, sexual and economic and it is the way by which the partner seeks to maintain control of the relationship. It is difficult to get out of it, warns Elizabeth Canabal, “because it is most likely that the relationship was not bad at the beginning and there are mixed feelings: I love him, he is going to change, people have hope that the abuser will change at some point”. Some women stay for their children, but statistics show that children who see and grow up around violence are abused as adults or become abusers. The message from our specialist: “statistics don’t lie, get out of there, they won’t change, I’ve never seen it (...) that an abusive person changes.” There is help available at your consulate of Mexico and partner organizations like SAFEHOME. Remember: no one regrets leaving an abuser. Listen to the interview with Elizabeth Canabal on the Voces Consulares podcast on Spotify and on @ ConsulMexKan on social media.
