The 2020 Census has conﬁrmed that the Hispanization of America 2.0 is effectively underway. The original HoA surfaced following the 1990 Census. Over the next 30 years, Hispanics made unprecedented inroads into American life and culture. Latinos became the leading actors in ﬁlms. Our music dominated the industry. Salsa outsold ketchup in grocery stores. Nachos outsold hotdogs at

baseball games. Latinos started winning the Nobel prize in literature and science. The era of blending in gave way to standing out. The graphic above provides an overview of the accelerated growth and impact of Latinos on the American landscape. Whether it’s making America great again or building back better, Latinos arguably are the driving force of progress. The 2020 Census has veriﬁed what we

Hispanics saw coming throughout the last decade. Latinos accounted for over half of the total population growth in the United States. Eighty percent of all new businesses were started by Latinos. Latino voter registration increased from 11 million to 18 million, and turnout increased from 6.5 million to 16 million. Latino purchasing power increased from $1 trillion to $1.7 trillion, the 2nd largest

Cristina Martinez,

the undocumented chef who has conquered the U.S.

POR: MYRNA I. MARTÍNEZ

Gourmet de Mexico

Cristina Martínez dejó todo en México. Corrió y corrió, atravesó el desierto de Arizona y dejó atrás una historia de acoso, de violencia doméstica, de peligro de muerte… pero también a sus cuatro hijos. Al cruzar la frontera, también cruzó con ella la receta secreta de la mejor barbacoa de su pueblo, Capulhuac, en el Estado de México, que por cinco generaciones ha guardado religiosamente la familia Martínez. Su barbacoa ha conquistado Filadelfia y todo Estados Unidos. La historia desupervivencia y de lucha por los derechos de los inmigrantes de la chef Cristina Martínez ha sido presentada en uno de los documentales que integran la quinta temporada de la serieChef´sTable, porNetflix. La vida de Cristina como la chef indocumentada que estaba “rompiendo” Filadelfia con su barbacoa, salió a la luz cuando su restaurante South Philly Barbacoa fue ubicado en 2016 dentro de la lista de los 10 mejores nuevos restaurantes de EEUU por la revista Bon Appétit.Ese nombramiento llamó la atención de la periodista Inger Díaz Barriga, quien se acercó a ella para conocer su restaurante y descubrió una vida desgarradora. La periodista viajó a Capulhuac, entrevistó a los hijos y familiares de Cristina, y después fue a Filadelfia para platicar con ella y con su esposo, el chef Benjamin Miller.Este reportaje se publicó a manera de podcast en la página de Univisión bajo el nombre “Mejor vete, Cristina”, trabajo distinguido con el premio Ortega y Gasset de periodismo 2018 a la Mejor Cobertura Multimedia. El episodio de Chef’s Table, en el que también participa Díaz Barriga, se adentra en la vida de Cristina, de su pueblo, sus hijos, su activismo social y, por supuesto, su cocina. Es la segunda vez que el serial deNetflixdedica un episodio a un mexicano; el primero fue Enrique Olvera. Cristina Martínez aprendió el arte de hacer barbacoa de hoyo en su pueblo. Su padre, quien era conocido como el“rey de la barbacoa”, la llevaba de niña al aeropuerto a ver los aviones despegar o al Teatro Blanquita en el Centro Histórico de la CDMX a disfrutar de la Sonora Santanera, según narra la chef en “Mejor vete, Cristina”. Pero esos recuerdos felices quedaron atrás cuando su padre empezó a beber. El alcoholismolo hizo perder el control y empezó a acosar a su hija cuando tenía 16 años. La situación se volvió tan insoportable, que Cristina contrajo matrimonio con Isaías, un hombre al que acaba de conocer y conquien vivió un infierno de maltratoy violencia. Su exesposo, el padre de sus cuatro hijos (tres hombres y una mujer), era violento y adicto a la cocaína. La maltrataba, la golpeaba, la amenaza de muerte, la dejaba sin comer y la tenía secuestrada en su propia casa… las golpizas fueron en aumento hasta que un día vio la puerta abierta y se escapó con su hija a Cancúna vivir consu hermana.Sus tres hijos se quedaron en el pueblo. Pero la pobreza que vivió en Cancún (ganaba 63 pesos diarios), y la necesidad de juntar dinero para reencontrarse con sus hijos la llevó sin pensarlo a cruzar el desiertode Arizona sin nada, sólo con poco agua y alimento, para instalarse en Filadelfia, donde vivía el exnovio de su hermana.

CHEF CRISTINA MARTÍNEZ La travesía duró tres semanas, cuando llegó a su destino estaba tan destrozada que tuvo que estar una semana en cama. Después de dos años, regresó a México e intentó recuperar a sus hijos, pero el padre la volvió a amenazar de muerte, y tuvo que volver a cruzar el desierto, dondeel fríonocturnocasi termina con su sueño. Una noche, ella pensó que moriría, pero la patrulla fronteriza “los salvó”, y quedó ﬁchada para siempre. Esa detención ha hecho que Cristina Martínez siga en la condición de “ilegal” y le ha impedido que pueda solicitar la residencia en Estados Unidos, a pesar de estar casada con un estadounidense y de pagar impuestos. Cristina yBenjaminse conocieron mientras trabajaban en un restaurante italiano. Tras casarse, el dueño “se dio cuenta” de su situación migratoria y fue despedida; Benjamin renunció. Cristina, desesperada,vendió quesadillas de a dólar en las calles, hasta que un día decidió hacer barbacoa clandestinamente en su casa.Lanoticia corrió como pólvora yabrieron South Philly Barbacoa en 2014, primero vendiendo en un “carrito”, y después en un local en el popular barrio Italian Market. Tras la muerte de su hijo Isaías en 2017, cerró el restaurante por unos meses y, en memoria de su hijo, quien había cruzado la frontera un año antes, atendió su restaurante El Compadre, donde además de tortas hacen guisados tradicionales como costillas de cerdo con verdolagas en salsa verde. Este año volvió a abrir sus puertas South Philly Barbacoa, este sencillo restaurante donde la chef apapacha el corazón de miles de mexicanos, y los regresa, aunque sea por unos minutos, a su hogar con un calientito caldo y unostacos de barbacoaacompañados de unas tortillas recién hechas. Aunque sabe que en cualquier momentopuede ser deportada y perderlo todo, Cristina y Ben se han convertido en fuertes y aguerridos activistas de su localidad. Crearon una organizaciónAlianza Popular por los Derechos delos Trabajadores Indocumentados, para abogar por su derechoa trabajar. Su historia es larga y difícil, su travesía así lo ha sido. Descubre más de esta mujer que ha cambiado paradigmas en Filadelﬁa en la serie Chef’s Table y en el podcast “Mejor vete, Cristina”.

Gourmet de Mexico

Cristina Martínez left everything in Mexico. She ran and ran, crossed the Arizona desert and left behind a history of harassment, domestic violence, danger of death ... but also her four children. When crossing the border, she also crossed the secret recipe for the best barbacoa in her town, Capulhuac, in the State of Mexico, which the Martínez family has religiously kept for five generations. Her barbacoa has conquered Philadelphia and the entire United States. Chef Cristina Martínez’s story of survival and struggle for the rights of immigrants has been presented in one of the documentaries that make up the fifth season of the Netflix series Chef’s Table. Cristina’s life as the undocumented chef who was “breaking” Philadelphia with her barbecue, came to light when her South Philly Barbacoa restaurant was named in 2016 in the list of the 10 best new restaurants in the U.S. by Bon Appétit magazine. That appointment caught the attention of journalist Inger Díaz Barriga, who approached her to see her restaurant and discovered a heartbreaking life story. The journalist traveled to Capulhuac, interviewed Cristina’s children and relatives, and then went to Philadelphia to talk with her and her husband, chef Benjamin Miller. This report was published as a podcast on the Univisión page under the name “Better go, Cristina”, a work which won the 2018 Ortega y Gasset journalism award for Best Multimedia Coverage. The Chef’s Table episode, in which Díaz Barriga also participates, delves into the life of Cristina, her people, her children, her social activism and, of course, her cooking. It is the second time that the Netflix serial dedicates an episode to a Mexican chef; the first one was Enrique Olvera. Cristina Martínez learned in her town the art of making barbacoa cooked in a hole on the ground. Her father, who was known as the “king of the barbacoa”, took her as a child to the airport to see the planes take off or to the Blanquita Theater in the Historic Center of CDMX to enjoy the Sonora Santanera, according to the

chef in “ Better go, Cristina”. But those happy memories were left behind when his father started drinking. Alcoholism made him lose control and he started harassing his daughter when she was 16 years old. The situation became so unbearable that Cristina married Isaias, a man she just met and with whom she lived through a hell of abuse and violence. Her ex-husband, the father of her four children (three boys and one girl), was violent and addicted to cocaine. He abused her, beat her, threatened to kill her, left her without food and had her kidnapped in her own house ... the beatings were on the rise until one day she saw the door open and she ran away with her daughter to Cancun to live with her sister. Her three children stayed in the village. But the poverty she lived in Cancun (she earned 63 pesos a day), and the need to raise money to reunite with her children made her to cross the Arizona desert without anything else but water and food, to settle in Philadelphia, where her sister’s ex-boyfriend lived. The journey lasted three weeks. When she reached her destination, she was so devastated that she had to spend a week in bed. After two years, she returned to Mexico and tried to get her children back, but her father threatened her with death again. She had to cross the desert again. This time the night cold almost ended her dream. One night, she thought she would die, but the border patrol “rescued” her. However, she was booked forever. This detention has kept Cristina Martínez in the condition of “undocumented” and has prevented her from applying for residency in the United States, despite being married to a U.S. citizen and paying taxes. Cristina and Benjamin met while working in an Italian restaurant. After getting married, the owner “realized” her immigration status and she was fired; Benjamin resigned. Desperate, Cristina sold one-dollar quesadillas on the streets, until one day she decided to make a clandestine barbacoa at her house. The news spread like wildfire and they opened South Philly Barbacoa in 2014, first selling from a “food truck” and then at a store in the popular Italian Market neighborhood. After the death of his son Isaias in 2017, he closed the restaurant for a few months and, in memory of his son, who had crossed the border a year earlier, he attended his restaurant El Compadre, where in addition to cakes they make traditional stews such as pork ribs in green sauce. Although she knows that at any moment she could be deported and lose everything, Cristina and Ben have become strong and fierce activists in their locality. They created an organization Popular Alliance for the Rights of Undocumented Workers, to advocate for their right to work. Its history is long and difficult, its journey has been so. Find out more about this woman who has changed paradigms in Philadelphia on Chef’s Table and also on the “Better go, Cristina” podcast.

José Bíaz-Balart joins MSNBC as anchor, launching “MSNBC Reports”

Multi Emmy-Award winning Journalist becomes only anchor to host news programs on both cable and broadcast television in English and Spanish NEW YORK/MIAMI – September 7, 2021 – Internationally recognized journalist José DíazBalart joins MSNBC as anchor of MSNBC’s “José Díaz-Balart Reports.” His program premieres on Sept. 27 and will air weekdays at 10 a.m. ET. Díaz-Balart will continue to be based in Miami. With the announcement, Díaz-Balart becomes the only anchor to host national news programs on both cable and broadcast television in English and Spanish. He will continue to anchor “NBC Nightly News Saturday” on NBC News and take on a broader role at Noticias Telemundo, where he will anchor monthly specials and breaking news events. He will also anchor special coverage across multiple platforms, including Peacock. Given his expanded responsibilities across the networks, Díaz-Balart will move on from his current role as anchor of Telemundo’s nightly newscast “Noticias Telemundo” at the end of the month. “I’m privileged to anchor MSNBC’s 10 a.m. hour to report on the issues that matter to all communities across America,” said Díaz-Balart. “It has been my honor to serve as the anchor of ‘Noticias Telemundo’ where we rigorously cover the most important news for the Latino community. I look forward to this unique role where I can reach different audiences in English and Spanish across the NBCUniversal News Group and Telemundo.” “José is one of the most trusted names in

news, and I’ve been a longtime admirer of his work,” said Rashida Jones, president of MSNBC. “I had the pleasure of working with José in the past, most recently for the presidential debates. His expertise in politics, passion for his craft, and commitment to getting the story right come through every time he’s on air. I’m excited for him to bring that back to the network on a daily basis.” “It’s an extraordinary privilege for any newsroom to have José among its ranks,” said Luis Fernandez, president of Noticias Telemundo. “Throughout his career he has shown an unwavering commitment to covering stories and issues that impact the Latino community in the United States. His expanded role across the three networks is a testament to his many talents and a recognition of his position as one of

the most distinguished journalists on television.” A groundbreaking pioneer in the news industry, Díaz-Balart was the ﬁrst journalist to anchor two different evening newscasts on separate broadcast networks in English and Spanish when he took over the Saturday edition of “NBC Nightly News” in 2016. Díaz-Balart began his journalism career in 1983. He has reported on some of the most consequential news stories in recent history, including presidential elections in the United States and Latin America, and moderated U.S. presidential debates. He has interviewed every U.S. president since Ronald Reagan in addition to hundreds of newsmakers, political leaders and thought leaders. He joined Noticias Telemundo in 2000, where he has anchored multiple programs, including “Esta Mañana,” “Hoy en el Mundo,” and “Enfoque con José Díaz-Balart.” In 2009, he took over as the main anchor for “Noticias Telemundo.” An award-winning anchor with a career that has spanned more than 35 years, DíazBalart has received numerous accolades including four Emmy awards, the George Foster Peabody Award, and the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award. He was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Hispanic Federation and the Broadcast & Cable/ Multichannel News Award for Outstanding Achievement in Hispanic Television.

US Department of Labor, Mexican government renew agreements to protect the rights of Mexican, Hispanic workers WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh and Ambassador of Mexico to the United States Esteban Moctezuma led a ceremony today to renew collaboration agreements between the Government of Mexico and the Government of the United States, for the protection of the rights of Mexican workers in this country. This event took place during the celebration of the 13th Labor Rights Week to increase awareness and inform the Mexican and Hispanic communities in the U.S. about workers’ most fundamental labor rights. LWR includes a series of events and activities undertaken by the consular network of Mexico in the U.S., in alliance with government agencies, civil society and other relevant actors. The signing of these agreements included a joint declaration in which both governments expressed their intention to continue strengthening their cooperative relationships to promote a better understanding of U.S. labor laws and practices among Mexican workers and

their employers. Likewise, agreements were renewed with the department’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the Wage and Hour Division, the National Relations Board Labor and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. During the ceremony, Ambassador Moctezuma highlighted that “providing legal certainty and protection to migrant workers is a top priority for President Lopez Obrador. Therefore, we are committed to consolidate long-lasting alliances with valuable partners to ﬁght against abuses and illegal practices. We are deeply grateful for the renewal of these agreements today.” “I think of all the Mexican and Mexican-American essential workers who have at great risk to themselves helped keep us safe, healthy and fed during the pandemic,” said U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh. ”Today we renew agreements that help ensure all workers in the United States have the right to full payment of wages and a safe

place to work. We commit to making sure that Mexican workers know their rights and employers know their responsibilities under U.S. law.” EEOC Chair Charlotte A. Burrows expressed that “today’s agreement with Mexico cements the EEOC’s commitment to ensure immigrant employees – regardless of their immigration status – understand that they are protected under our laws. They have the right to be treated fairly and free from discrimination at work. Allowing employment discrimination to persist lowers the bar for all.” NLRB General Counsel Jennifer A. Abruzzo also participated in the event and agreed the signing of these agreements show the great will and commitments of both governments to protect the rights of migrant workers. Also in attendance were Acting Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health James Frederick and Acting Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division Jessica Looman.

Elgin McDonald’s unveils new dining room with kiosks, food delivered to your table BY RICK WEST

For Reﬂejos

An Elgin McDonald’s with a track record of innovation unveiled a new dining room design Tuesday where patrons can order from kiosks and have their food delivered to the table. The Bear Family McDonald’s at 1480 Larkin Ave. held a grand reopening for its remodeled dining room, one of fewer than 200 McDonald’s in the country with the design. Along with the ordering kiosks, it features clean, modern decor and a state-of-the-art air filtration system. “This restaurant was the first my family owned and we’ve always tested new things there, so it was a natural spot for this,” owner David Bear said. It was also the first restaurant in the world with a side-by-side drive through. “My dad designed and implemented that and now it’s the industry standard,” he said. Bear’s parents, Jerry and Marcelle Bear, purchased the location in 1967. The family now owns 32 McDonald’s restaurants. Bear said they’re in a cycle of remodeling their restaurants every 10 years and wanted to incorporate the latest design and technology. The work took about four weeks to complete. The first thing guests will notice when entering are the kiosks and a cleaner, more closed-off front counter area that hides most of the kitchen. Patrons can order and pay at

Ordering can also be done from a phone app, or the old-fashioned way at the counter. “It’s really something,” Marcelle Bear said of the kiosks. She remembers working on an old manual cash register when they ﬁrst opened. “They’re going to need to train me.” The kiosks are handicapped-accessible with a voice component and touch feedback.

ful, heat-sensitive lights built in. “You think it’s something for the kids, but I guarantee adults are going to love them,” David Bear said. They also installed a UV Angel Clean Air ﬁltration system throughout the restaurant. The system pulls air in through a HEPA ﬁlter, then goes through a chamber where it is exposed to UV light, which kills any pathogens or microbes in the air, Bear said. He said the system was in place in four

other of the family’s locations. “We’ve seen an 80% reduction in microbes in the air in the other locations where we’ve installed it,” Bear said. “I feel very safe in there without my mask.” Manager Ron Hornsberger was full of superlatives when describing the redesign. “The changes are outstanding,” he said. “It’s going to be great for the community, and the customer experience is going to be out of this world.”

72% Hispanic millennials providing financial support to family – far more than non-Hispanic millennials (53%).

New research from Bank of America’s Better Money Habits has found that as Hispanic millennials continue to weather significant financial impacts from the pandemic, 72% are also providing financial support to family – far more than non-Hispanic millennials (53%). Additionally, 72% say the pandemic impacted their ability to save (compared to 59% of non-Hispanic millennials). Despite these challenges, 51% of Hispanic millennials are optimistic about their financial outlook and many are taking positive steps toward a

more financially secure future. The new research examines Hispanic millennials’ financial priorities, challenges and goals as they regain their financial footing from the pandemic. I’ve included additional key findings below. Family is the cornerstone of Hispanic millennials’ financial lives: 23% of Hispanic millennials increased or are increasing financial support for family due to the pandemic, including immediate and/or extended family. Compared to non-Hispanic mil-

lennials, Hispanic millennials are four times more likely to be supporting their or their spouse’s parents (16% vs. 4%) as well as family abroad (17% vs. 4%). Gaps in savings and emergency funding pose serious challenges: 45% contributed less than $1,000 to savings or investments over the last year, and 23% were not able to save at all. Navigating heightened career and salary impacts of the pandemic: 19% of Hispanic millennials remain unemployed. This job in-

stability driven by the pandemic has taken a toll on Hispanic millennials’ finances – 26% say a reduced income and 19% say job stability/loss are top barriers to achieving financial goals. Despite challenges, Hispanic millennials are taking positive action toward financial goals: 48% plan to start an emergency fund following the pandemic. Additionally, 32% are now prioritizing saving and budgeting and 27% are focused on their individual financial goals and self-improvement.

Feder: ‘I don’t want us to forget’: Carol Marin on the legacy of 9/11 BY ROBERT FEDER

For Reﬂejos

It took nothing less than a miracle -- and a courageous New York firefighter who has never been identified -- to save Carol Marin from the collapse of the second tower of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. Then as now one of Chicago’s most respected journalists, Marin was working as a “60 Minutes” correspondent for CBS News in Manhattan on the morning of the attacks. She raced to the site to cover the story and was a block or two away when she heard a roar and felt the ground rumble. A firefighter screamed at Marin to run just as a fireball of ignited jet fuel consumed the base of the north tower, causing the building to come crashing down. As she started to run, Marin fell and the firefighter picked her up. “The firefighter threw me against a nearby building and shielded my body with his,” she would recall. “I could feel the pounding of his heart against my backbone. In seconds the air was black and thick with debris.” The firefighter handed Marin off to a policeman, who helped her find daylight and catch a lift from a paramedic unit. Then she hitched a ride the rest of the way to the CBS Broadcast Center in Midtown Manhattan from the driver of an empty city bus. Her navy blue suit still covered with soot and ash, Marin went live on the air with CBS News anchor Dan Rather to recount her harrowing ordeal. At one point Rather took her hand to help her maintain composure. “It’s the closest I ever came to dying,” Marin told me on the phone later that day. “Both of us were sure we were dead,” she said of the anonymous firefighter. Marin, 72, who retired from daily broadcasting last November, still runs the Center for Journalism Integrity and Excellence at DePaul University with co-founder and co-director Don Moseley. Today Moseley and Marin, a Palatine native and Palatine High School graduate, find themselves teaching students who have no firsthand recollections of a world before 9/11. On the eve of the 20th anniversary, Marin reflected on the events of that day and shared her insight on how journalism has changed: Q. Carol, I remember you saying a few years ago that you wanted to put 9/11 behind you and didn’t want to talk about it anymore. What changed your mind? A. Yeah, I’ve gone through these different phases worrying that I was guilty of exploiting it, worrying that there were no new words for it, that I will say the same thing again and again, which I do say again and again because my memories are so clear on that day -- or most of my memories, anyway. And then we get to 20 years, right? And I have students who don’t know what it was. And now I’m in the mindset that I don’t want us to forget it because it was so important, and it has so many multiple meanings. Every September, we start our very first

CAROL MARIN

class by explaining the evacuation policy of the building and how you need to go down 11 flights of stairs to get to the ground, and that you can’t grab a purse or a cup of coffee because you can’t waste a second. That is good fire policy, but 9/11 has provoked the finer points of it. And then I explain that some of us have a personal experience of what an evacuation means or doesn’t. Q. How has your perspective on it changed? A. I’m struggling to find new descriptors. One of the things that I started thinking about is the smoke. I mean, I can still smell the smoke. New York smelled of an inferno still burning down on the ground. There were like 20,000 gallons of jet fuel in that building when it collapsed. I can smell the air, I can feel it. I can feel the grit under my shoes. And this always chokes me up: I can see the posters on all the walls in and around that site where people were saying, “Have you seen my son, my daughter, my wife, my husband?” They were like wanted posters. People wanting so deeply to think that somebody got out of the building and was somehow still alive but not found. That was all around us. I wish I could for just a moment help people who were too young know what it smelled like, felt like, looked like -- not just for days but for weeks. I went back after a number of months and I could still smell it. What I also want us to take out of this is that after 9/11 for a period of time we were the United States of America. We were all in it together. It wasn’t as polarized or as partisan as it is now. I don’t wish for another 9/11, God knows. But we were a whole country. After that we broke into our divided parts again. Can you remember a time that so united us since then? I can’t. Q. What do you tell students who are about to become journalists?

A. Our challenge is to prepare them for reporting on everything. You know, I wasn’t ever assigned something like 9/11. It assigns you to it as a reporter. So how do you report on something you are yourself experiencing? And how do you detach yourself enough to tell other people’s stories -- not your story because you’ve decided you’re so important? Our students are growing up in an age of believing that there is no objectivity anymore. You might as well tell your own story, be part of your own story. And what we explain to them is, ‘Not in our class.’ You can believe that, if you want to do that. But for the purposes of our class and our center, it is to tell other people’s stories as fairly and as ethically as you can. And while you can’t entirely pull yourself out of it, you can’t always be the star of your own account. And that’s very hard to kind of drill in to a young generation of new journalists. Q. Can you ever really prepare for what you experienced? A. You learn because you practice it, how to keep your head about you, how to control what you may be feeling on behalf of explaining it to someone else. It’s not that you’re not human. On the set with Dan Rather that terrible day, I really struggled because I had not even yet absorbed the size of the calamity. I was still trying to ﬁgure out what happened on West Street when the north tower came down on me. So in the middle of these things, you’re also trying to grasp the size of it, because you don’t know yet, and tell it well enough that you know you’re giving your steps as your understanding grows. People ask me all the time if it happened again, would I go? And you know the answer, right, Rob? It’s what we do. It’s what we do. And we’re proud that it’s what we do. So you report for duty. I’m not glad, God knows, that this thing happened. But I’m grateful that I could be there.

Q. What do you think when you see the tape with Dan Rather? A. It’s hard for me to watch ... There’s a place you saw where my voice wobbles a bit because I was so in awe of the different people that helped me -- the firefighter, the police officer, the paramedics, the bus driver. I was aware that my job was to get back to CBS and tell whatever part of the story I knew. I was on a massive adrenaline rush because when the tower started coming down and the firefighter yelled “Run!” he made me kick off my high heels and we ran through the rubble of the street. It wasn’t until 1 or 2 o’clock in the morning when I finally got back to my hotel after doing reports through the day and night, and I got in the shower that I looked down, and saw I had lost some skin on my toes. I hadn’t noticed until the water hit it and I jumped. So there is an overdrive when you’re in a situation like that. What I also realized in the moment I was running was all I could do was run. Q. Have you had any lingering physical effects? A. The physical effects I experienced in the very beginning. I was training for a marathon, and I ran a really bad marathon because I lost training and I had skinned toes. I had a window into PTSD because for more than a year or two after, if I heard anything like a loud crash, like a wrecking ball at a construction site, I had a visceral response. I had a visceral response every time I saw a plane come in for a landing or saw a plane in the sky and wondered, before I could even think it rationally, I hope he doesn’t hit that building. That slowly drifted away, but it gave me an appreciation of what soldiers must experience in such a larger measure than that. I had my lungs checked regularly because the worry always was that we’ve got some filaments of asbestos or something. It was raining debris and at first all you could do is cover your face with your hand. So I had breathing issues that my doctor watches closely because there’s probably some hit that my lungs took since I was at that site with regularity in the days that followed. But so far, knock on wood, nothing wrong. Q. How do you make the lessons 9/11 relevant today? A. The students that we teach at DePaul were either not born or were 2 or 3 years old when 9/11 happened. Their parents remember but they don’t. So this is why I do show them the video -- so they can relate to the idea that someone they know was there, and it becomes more experiential for them. But beyond that, I think educationally in America, we do not do enough history. We don’t help students enough grasp the fact that they’re not just in this time and place ... It’s a big challenge, and I don’t know a really good answer except to keep trying. If 9/11 can do anything (it is) to remind people that in some ways, as a stricken country, we were a better country to each other than we are right now.

PROUD TO BE DESIGNATED AS A HISPANIC SERVING INSTITUTION An oﬃcially designated Hispanic-Serving Institution with a 30% Latinx population, Waubonsee continually strives to empower students of Hispanic backgrounds. Most recently, we became one of three Illinois colleges (and the only community college) to receive a Title V grant to expand educational opportunities for Hispanic and low-income students. Part of the grant will fund our new Latinx Resource Center (LRC), which will be located at the Aurora Downtown Campus. The LRC will provide resources and support services to address common barriers to success, including issues related to ﬁnances, family– school balance, and immigration, as well as serve as a venue for learning about Latinx culture and traditions. Waubonsee does not discriminate on the basis of any individual’s actual or perceived characteristic protected by law in its programs or activities.

Elgin authors among semiﬁnalists in Illinois librarians’ book contest BY MADHU KRISHNAMURTHY

For Reﬂejos

At 15, Raúl Castillo Ontiveros began traveling across his native Mexico in search of adventures. “I used to travel from my hometown (Monterrey) to the most famous places in Mexico,” said Ontiveros, 58, of Elgin, who teaches Advanced Placement Spanish at Elgin High School. Ontiveros’ bilingual memoir, “Grandes Aventuras de un Pequeño Viajero,” and a fantasy historical romance novel, “Demon’s Bane,” by fellow Elgin author India Powers are semiﬁnalists in the eighth annual Soon to Be Famous Illinois Author Project Indie Book Competition. “The contest itself is good because it promotes writing,” said Ontiveros, who has been teaching in Elgin Area School District U-46 for 23 years. Volunteer Illinois librarians read and evaluate the works of lesser-known local authors entered in the contest. Ontiveros and Powers are patrons of Gail Borden Public Library in Elgin. The library’s staff members helped spread the word about the contest and received submissions and nominations of authors.

ELGIN AUTHORS Raul Castillo Ontiveros, pictured here, and India Powers, both patrons of Gail Borden Public Library in Elgin, have been named semiﬁnalists in the eighth annual Soon to Be Famous Illinois Author Project Indie Book Competition for their respective books “Grandes Aventuras de un Pequeño Viajero” and “Demon’s Bane.”

Author project

Eight years ago, a group of Illinois librarians created the Soon to Be Famous Illinois

Author Project with the goal of demonstrating the power of libraries to promote the works of unknown local authors. Previous contest winners have seen higher book sales, increased visibility on library platforms, and at least one publishing contract. This year, the group launched the Spanish language contest, De la Página a la Fama, the brainchild of Tina Viglucci, Gail Borden’s director of Hispanic services. “We’re representing our communities, and our Elgin community is half Latino,” Viglucci said. “If we are really representing our communities and giving them a voice ... everyone can benefit by hearing diverse voices.” The goal is magnifying diverse authors’ voices and benefiting readers from their perspectives, she added. Ten adult fiction novels, five young adult fiction works, and six Spanish language works were chosen as semifinalists in this year’s competition. Winners in each category will receive a cash prize, opportunities to promote their books at libraries and author fairs throughout Illinois, and a chance to compete with winners from other state competitions to be named Indie Author of the Year. Three finalists will be selected in September and a winner will be announced in October. For more information, visitsoonto-

Lecture series

Paul Chavez, the son of the late American labor leader and civil rights activist Cesar Chavez, will talk about the “Lessons Learned From My Father” on Sept. 15 at Elmhurst University. This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Cesar Chavez Intercultural Lecture series, created in 1996 as part of Hispanic Heritage Month activities at Elmhurst. In the early 1960s, Paul Chavez joined his seven brothers and sisters in handing out leaﬂets in farm towns throughout California’s Central Valley, helping his father build the union that would become the United Farm Workers. Chavez has spent his life with the farmworker movement as a union organizer, negotiator and assistant to his father. Since 1991, he also has led theCesar Chavez Foundation,which works to improve the lives of farmworkers and poor working families throughout the Southwest. His talk will begin at 4 p.m. in the Founders Lounge of the Frick Center, 190 Prospect Ave., Elmhurst. Admission is free. For reservations, visitelmhurst.edu/cultural.

Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration at Gail Borden Library Kicks off with bilingual exhibit

The Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration kicks off at Gail Borden Library with a colorful no-touch, bilingual exhibit. Beautiful outfits from the Ballet Folklorico Huehuecoyotl (BFH) sway in the main rotunda, reminding viewers of the many times the talented dance group has performed at the library and in the community. The group is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. “We are proud to loan our outfits to the library,” said Cynthia Hernandez, Executive Director of BFH. “Our mission is, ‘To engage and inspire future leaders to realize their potential through artistic expression and community engagement.’ Having our cultural outfits on display at the library helps us let people know in the community that we have been using dance to engage others for 25 years.” In addition to featuring the Folklorico outfits, the exhibit traces the history of Hispanics in this area, noting that the Census indicated “19 natives of Mexico were living in Elgin Township” in 1930, to 14,576 people “of Hispanic origin” in 1990, to the 2020 Census estimate of approximately 52,000 (45.7% of 114,797). One panel explains that workers were recruited from Mexico to become railroad section hands who dug up land and installed railroad tracks, including those of the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern Railway. It also adds that many Hispanics worked for the

Woodruff & Edwards Foundry by the 1920s. The exhibit also includes information about Hispanic churches, organizations and U-46’s dual language program.

The Care4 Breast Cancer 5K is excited to be hosting its 21st annual run/walk at Woodstock North High School on October 17th. The Care4 race has been a pillar of strengthand hope for our county while raising critical funds for Family Health Partnership Clinic- a not for proﬁt organization that provides quality health care to the uninsured men and women of McHenry County. The clinic does not rely on federal or state funding so events like the Care4 race help provide programs such as Breast cancer screenings, annual exams, early diagnostic testing and breast cancer education. We know that early diagnosis is key to survival and uninsured women are 2.6 times more likely to be diagnosed with later stage breast cancer. Together, our community can change that statistic! The Care4 event draws over 500 volunteers from every corner of the county- from local high school cheer squads and National Honor Society members to Mercy Health System Nursing Staff to the McHenry County Bike Club- all

Carolina Pikakacho Fronteras de la Noticia - EFEsalud Ante la propuesta del Ministerio de Educación de relajar algunas de las medidas frente a la covid para esta vuelta al cole, los pediatras de la Asociación de Pediatría de Atención Primaria piden no bajar la guardia y mantener las mismas medidas que se aplicaron el curso pasado y cali+can de -%0ito#& Con el objetivo de continuar garantizando una educación 100 % presencial en este curso escolar 2021-2022, los pediatras insisten en la necesidad de mantener las medidas, al menos durante los primeros meses& -$ebemos ser muy cautos y vigilantes porque desconocemos si las medidas que se aplicaron el año pasado seguirán siendo igual de efectivas a la hora de contener la transmisión intraescolar en este nuevo conte0to#, señalan en un comunicado& Los alumnos de Educación Infantil y Primaria, los más vulnerables El conte0to actual, con los menores de 12 años todavía sin vacunar, obliga a los pediatras a ser prudentes en sus recomendaciones para este comienzo de curso& -Por un lado -e0plica el doctor /orrot0ategi . los mayores de 12 años estarán vacunados en su mayoría, pero muchos solo habrán recibido una dosis, con lo que la protección será todavía insu+ciente#& En cuanto a los menores de 12 años, este m%dico apunta que -este segmento no estará vacunado, ni se prev% que en un futuro pró0imo lo est%, ya que en la actualidad no hay ninguna vacuna aprobada para esa franja de edad y, cuando lo est%n, habrá que determinar las edades a las que se pueden administrar#& Por tanto, esta población es susceptible de contagiarse con mayor facilidad y, de este modo, seguir propagando la enfermedad en su entorno& En este sentido, el doctor C%sar /arcía !era recuerda que -diversos estudios pediátricos han mostrado que los niños y niñas infectados por SA"S-Co!-2 enferman de forma muy leve, muchos sin presentar síntomas, y con una tasa de enfermedad grave y de ingresos hospitalarios muy inferior a la de otros virus respiratorios en población pediátrica, como la gripe o el virus sincitial respiratorio#& Sin embargo, -no hay que olvidar el papel demostrado por los menores como transmisores de esta enfermedad al resto de la comunidad#, añade& /arcía !era apunta que -dentro de las aulas, la mascarilla, la distancia y la ventilación son medidas que no deben relajarse#& -En el caso de los más pequeños, que no llevan mascarilla, se deberían mantener los grupos burbuja#, añade&

J Balvin ‘José’,

Caroilina Pickacho Fronteras de la Noticia - Capitol Latin Llevará por título su propio nombre de pila, JOSE, tal y como anunció en Twitter casi de manera fortuita: un tipo que aseguraba que Balvin había conseguido el respaldo de todos aunque él no había oído hablar de él, por lo que decidió darle en primicia la nueva de que sacaría un disco homónimo con sus mejores canciones y algunas nuevas. Con un total de 24 canciones, el que será su quinto disco de estudio en solitario se presenta en gran parte como un recopilatorio de sus últimos temas más populares. Así, su exitazo con Tokisha, remixes como el de Poblado o temas inéditos como Querido Río serán parte de lo que sus seguidores se encontrarán en el nuevo disco del artista. En cuanto a la estética del mismo, parece que Balvin sigue apostando por los colores vivos y su característico estilo. Sumado a la sencillez que ha mostrado haciendo tocayo suyo a este nuevo trabajo

¿Estás Perdiendo los Dientes?

Olvídate de cajas o removibles

El cantante español ha estado pensando en una especie de retirada musical

Enrique Iglesias

anuncia el “último” disco de su carrera, “Final”

Empieza a vivir mejor y siéntete con conﬁanza de nuevo con implantes

CAROLINA PIKACHO,

Fronteras de la Noticia - cnnespanol.com

Enrique Iglesias anunció que el 17 de septiembre lanzará un nuevo disco llamado “Final”, el undécimo y “último” de su carrera: “Tendrá volumen 1 y volumen 2, pero es el último. Estoy en ese momento de mi vida, ese capítulo de mi vida, que creo que es el tiempo adecuado de parar”. El cantante español dio la noticia en una charla retransmitida por internet donde estuvo acompañado por el puertorriqueño Ricky Martin y el colombiano Sebastián Yatra, con quienes comienza a ﬁnales de mes una gira norteamericana, y que se mostraron sorprendidos cuando lo escucharon. “El título ‘Final’ tiene mucho signiﬁcado. Intento deciros que podría ser mi último álbum (...) No es algo que haya pensado los últimos meses, sino los últimos años”, explicó Iglesias. “Nunca voy a parar de hacer música y escribir canciones, me encanta, pero voy a hacerlo de otra forma, no necesariamente empaquetado como un álbum”. La estrella de la música latina presentó hace siete años su último álbum de estudio, “Sex and love” (2014) y desde entonces ha lanzado numerosas colaboraciones con otros artistas, entre ellas el reciente tema “Me pasé” junto al reguetonero boricua Farruko como anticipo de este esperado nuevo disco. “Me siento bien por (el disco), he estado trabajando en él durante un tiempo, me lleva una eternidad hacer álbumes. Estoy muy emocionado”, se sinceró Iglesias durante la charla mientras los vocalistas respondían a una serie de preguntas enviadas por los fans. El autor de éxitos como “Bailamos” o “Hero” aseguró que “desde 2015” ha estado pensando en una especie de retirada musical como la que anunció hoy, y por eso consideró que la gira compartida, que comienza el 25 de septiembre en Las Vegas y recorrerá Estados Unidos y Canadá, va a ser “especial”.

I HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH Carlos Morales, Fronteras de la Noticia - hipertextual.com Maligno, de James Wan se convirtió en un pequeño éxito en el cine de terror gracias a la fama que precede a su director. También por su insistencia de conservar la integridad del misterio del guion a toda costa. Incluso si eso signi+caba pro1ecciones tard'as sin cr'ticas tempranas 1 un inusual secretismo alrededor de la producción. &l +nal, el ob3etivo de Wan era uno solo2 crear una pel'cula de terror capa/ de superar las expectativas. Pese a sus buenas intenciones, Maligno debe recorrer un trecho complicado para estar a la altura de las ambiciones de Wan. El director, que esta ocasión intenta me/clar lo sobrenatural con el suspense, no lo logra del todo. Y aunque Maligno tiene un magn'+co sentido del ritmo 1 disfruta de la habilidad de Wan de crear atmósferas, es un experimento incompleto. Tal ve/ se trate de la insistencia del director por lograr sostener un discurso a la medida de lo que parece ser una ca3a de los misterios. $esde sus primeras escenas, Wan de3a claro que esta ve/ el terror no es evidente. Y de hecho cru/ar! un complicado terreno a través del cual deber! enfrentarse a tropie/os previsibles. $espués de todo, Maligno 3uega en un complicado tablero. El trauma infantil, lo sobrenatural como contexto 1 el miedo que se convierte en hilo conductor, son elementos que Wan mane3a con soltura. Pero en Maligno todos se combinan a la ve/ para construir una concepción sobre lo terror'+co poco consistente. ¿El motivo? Wan lleva su habitual fórmula de la c!mara sub3etiva, el ambiente opresivo 1 la amena/a por l'neas poco de+nidas. .a premisa es de hecho algo tan amplio como para englobar varios temas a la ve/. ¿#ué es el miedo 1 qué lo provoca? ¿#ué podr'a provocar que seamos testigos de un hecho sobrenatural? En esta ocasión, Wan utili/a el mito de %assandra 1 las profec'as inconclusas para sostener algo m!s singular. "u protagonista es capa/ de ver cr'menes violentos, pero sus visiones podr'an o no ser ciertas. Maligno es poderosa en la medida en la que resulta cre'ble, pero cuando Wan a*o3a el pulso 1 la pel'cula debe sostener sus propios interrogantes, decae. Y es entonces cuando la percepción sobre lo extraño, fat'dico e inevitable se hace incómoda por el mero hecho de ser predecible. Maligno comien/a con una mirada inquietante a un hospital psiqui!trico, en el que se establece la dualidad del discurso de Wan. En esta ocasión el director parece obsesionado con la duplicidad 1 los dobles discursos. 0a1 una condición sobre lo que podr'a ser real 1 lo que no, que comien/a con esta visión inquietante sobre el destino de un paciente invisible. $espués de sufrir un violent'sima agresión en el !mbito doméstico, Madison comien/a a tener visiones. -o ha1 una transición real entre la connotación de la violencia f'sica 1 brutal, hacia el hecho sobrenatural. Pero Wan consigue que la premisa funcione a través de escenas de un inquietantes realismo.
