LOS ANGELES, April 22,2018 (AP): Los Angeles isseeking an injunction pro-hibiting the U.S. Justice De-partment from imposing im-migration enforcement con-ditions on the city in order toreceive federal funding foranti-gang programs.

In announcing a lawsuitagainst the Trump adminis-

For two decades states andcities have received grantmoney to support law enforce-ment efforts. Los Angeles uses$1 million annually to fund aprogram that aims to reducegang activity.

New federal rules institutedlast year deny funds to citiessuch as Los Angeles that usefederal resources for criminaljustice programs rather thanparticipate in federal civil im-migration enforcement.

Feuer says immigration-related conditions imposedon grants are unlawful andpossibly unconstitutional.

LA HABANA, 22 VIII18 (AP) - El cubano IsbelOrtiz pudo abrir suFacebook, revisar sucorreo y ver a su hermanaque vive en EstadosUnidos. JorgeSatiesteban, en cambio,intentó durante horasc o n e c t a r s einfructuosamente y almediodía estabadesilusionado.

Los habitantes de laisla congestionaron elacceso a internet elmiércoles luego de que elgobierno habilitó demanera gratuita y poralgunas horas el serviciode datos para celulares.

Ni el tórrido calorveraniego ni lasp r e o c u p a c i o n e seconómicas distrajeron alos que lograronconectarse durante laprueba piloto organizadapor ETECSA, la empresaestatal detelecomunicaciones.

“Esta es una buenaoportunidad laboral paramí”, dijo sonriendo Ortiz,de 48 años, un trabajadorindependiente del Estadoque se dedica a gestionarviajes y confirmar reservasde turistas a Cuba y paraello se conecta con sumóvil cada día desdeparques o cibercafés.

Ortiz debe caminarunas siete cuadras desdesu casa hasta encontraruno de los 700 puntos wi-fi instalados por lasautoridades a lo largo deesta década para acceder ala red de redes por el preciode un dólar la hora.

El gobierno afirmó queeste año lanzará el serviciode datos desde celularesen todo el país —uno delos de menorconectividad a nivelmundial a pesar de tenercinco millones de cuentasde teléfonos móviles— yestá expandiendo la ofertade internet domiciliario,hasta hace algunos mesessolo accesible paradiplomáticos, empleadosde empresas extranjeras oaltos funcionarios.

ETECSA informó quela prueba piloto seextenderá hasta las 24horas a fin de observar “elcomportamiento de la red”y ajustar “parámetrostécnicos” de camino alanzar el producto.

En esta ocasión losusuarios tuvieron laoportunidad de bajar unpaquete de 70 MB paraconsumir en la jornada -yque por la tarde buena parteya había consumido-.

Mientras, los teléfonosmóviles paracomunicaciones que noinvolucraran internet teníanmal señal por la mañana odaban como fuera decobertura, aunque no pudoconfirmarse la relación entreambos sucesos.

Una prueba de datosmóviles similar pero muchomás limitada se realizó amediados de mes de manerasorpresiva y por tres horas.Entonces la informacióncorrió de boca en boca entrelos ciudadanos ocasionandouna congestión notable delas telecomunicaciones.

Según ETECSA en laocasión anterior unas800.000 personas sesumaron espontáneamente ala conexión y tal como estavez solo estuvo vigente paralas cuentas prepagas.

La prueba alcanzótambién a diferentesregiones, constató The Asso-ciated Press, que pudolocalizar a usuarios en eloriente del país.

“Estoy gozando de lasbondades de ETECSA”,bromeó el joven estudianteMarcos Marzo, de 20 años,quien vive habitualmente enLa Habana pero fue a visitara su familia a Santiago deCuba, a unos 900 kilómetrosde la capital. “Estuvo muyfluida la conexión con voz yvideo”.

Marzo probó YouTube yabrió un video de la cantanteJennifer López, se comunicópor Whatsapp con una amigaen Costa Rica y con su papáque se encontraba en LaHabana y “googleó” noticiasy una página coninformación sobre unamedicina que necesitaba.

Según sus cálculos en doshoras de conexión con unuso que él mismo considerómoderado había gastadounos 45 MB de los 70 que leofreció ETECSA.

“No hay duda de que esun paso positivo, pero conCuba y acceso a internetsiempre hay dos diablos.Primero la falta de accesogeneral y segundo losdetalles del acceso que hay”,manifestó el investigadorTed Henken, profesor de

sociología de laUniversidad de la Ciudadde Nueva York y expertoen la isla.

La preocupación deHenken tiene que ver conla calidad de la señal, cuánuniversal sea el acceso, sise controlarán loscontenidos de las páginasy sobre todo el precio alcual se accederá al servicio.

“Cuba sigue siendo elúltimo lugar de la región(en conectividad), aunquehay que reconocer que vamejorando en comparacióna los 10 años pasados”,expresó el académico.

Durante muchos añosCuba acusó a EstadosUnidos de limitar el accesoa los cables que pasan porsu entorno -en virtud de lassanciones aplicadas a la islapara presionar por uncambio de modelopolítico- obligándola ausar medios satelitaleslentos y caros. Pero amediados de la décadapasada un convenio conVenezuela le facilitó untendido de banda anchacon fibra óptica.

Desde entonces y demanera muy paulatina losservicios se ampliaron y losprecios bajaron, pero loscríticos aseguran que elproceso es demasiadolento.

Además de lasfunciones escolares olaborales, en general loscubanos perciben a lascomunicaciones -y ainternet- como unanecesidad esencial en unpaís con un alto índice deemigración y en el cualmiles de familias tienenmiembros viviendo en elextranjero.

“íNo pude, al menos porahora!”, exclamómoviendo la cabezaSatiesteban, un albañil yplomero de 36 años que sequedó con las ganas deacceder, aunque lo intentódesde la mañana.

Satiesteban aseguró queno le importa tener un pocomás de paciencia con tal delograr una conexión que lepermita interactuar con susparientes en EstadosUnidos, Canadá y España.

“Tener internet móvilsería ideal, es algo que locubanos hemos esperadopor mucho tiempo y en elmundo entero esaccesible”, dijo.

CIUDAD DE MÉXICO,23 VIII 18 (AP): Karina Gidiy Daniel Giménez Cachoexploran la conflictivarelación de RosarioCastellanos y RicardoGuerra en “Los adioses”.

Además del machismo dela época de la escritora y elfilósofo mexicanos, en surelación _ retratada de maneraíntima en la cinta de NataliaBeristáin que se estrena elviernes en México _ otro delos grandes conflictos era laenvidia.

“Sí era una de las razonespor las que las cosas entreRicardo Guerra y RosarioCastellanos no funcionaban.Estaba como mal colocada laforma de admirar al otro yrespetar al otro y luegoenvidiar al otro y estar celosoel tiempo del otro”, dijo Gigia The Associated Press enuna entrevista reciente.

La actriz fue galardonadaen junio con el premio Arielpor su interpretación de laautora de novelas como“Balún Canán”, cuentos(“Álbum de familia”),poemas (“Lívida luz”) yensayos (“Sobre culturafemenina”). Castellanos,considerada una de lasescritoras mexicanas másprominentes del siglo XX,fue además embajadora deMéxico en Israel, dondemurió por una descargaeléctrica en 1974, a los 49años.

Guerra (1928-2007), entanto, escribió obras menosconocidas como “Críticas delas teorías del mexicano”,“Filosofía y fin de siglo” y“Actualidad de Nietzsche”.Fue embajador de laRepública DemocráticaAlemana tras la muerte deCastellanos y director de laFacultad de Filosofía y Letrasde la UNAM, donde conocióa la autora en sus años deuniversitarios y donde ellatambién impartió clases.

Castellanos y Guerratuvieron una relación cuandoeran veinteañeros. Guerra secasó y tras su primer divorciovolvió con la escritora, conquien tuvo a su hijo Gabriel.

“Los adioses” los presentaen sus años juveniles, conTessa Ia en el papel deCastellanos y Pedro de Táviraen el de Guerra, y en su edadmadura con Gidi y GiménezCacho.

“Yo creo que eso (laenvidia) no tiene época. Sipasa eso en una pareja ahorahay que saberlo procesar y hayque saberlo acomodar”, dijo ala AP Giménez Cacho, quiencontó que en su propia casavivió una situación similar: sumadre vivía para apoyar lacarrera de su padre, pero cuandodecidió volverse pintora“hubo gritos y sombrerazos”hasta que se emancipó.

Guerra, quien en la películase ve realizando asambleasestudiantiles en las quetambién participó Castellanosy criticándola por su condiciónde hija de terratenientes, noera un machista golpeador,pero obligaba a Castellanos aelegir entre su carrera comoacadémica y su papel de madreal considerar inapropiado queno estuviera todo el tiempocuidando a su hijo.

“Eso es una cosa quesiempre me ha dado mucharisa, porque la gente deizquierda está buscandotransformar el mundo y hacerla justicia social afuera en lacalle y en la sociedad en sucasa eso no pasa”, dijo el astromexicano de películas como“Profundo carmesí”, “La malaeducación” y “Zama”.

Con Beristáin, agregó,“hablamos mucho del tipo derelación que era para definirqué tipo de hombre era este,dentro de la amplia gama delmenú machista cuál íbamos aescoger”.

Los créditos de Beristáin(Ciudad de México, 1981)incluyen “No quiero dormirsola” de 2012, su ópera prima,así como capítulos de “LuisMiguel: la serie” y de “Elsecreto de Selena”, sobre lavida de Selena Quintanilla, depróximo estreno. Sucortometraje “Peces plátano”de 2006 cuenta con unaactuación de Gidi, mientrasque con Giménez Cachohabían trabajado juntos en

teatro.“Los adioses” se llevó el

premio del público en elFestival internacional delCine de Morelia a finales de2017. Fue filmada en 2016en la Ciudad de México y enComitán, Chiapas, el sureñoestado de México dondecreció Castellanos, uno delos más pobres y con mayorpoblación indígena delpaís, lo cual impactaría sucarrera y literatura. Tambiéncuenta con escenas en laUNAM que supusieron dosaños de permisos para laproducción y un gran trabajopara controlar a los miles deestudiantes que se dan cita adiario en sus edificios.

Beristáin pensó en hacerla película tras leer lacorrespondencia deCastellanos a Guerra. Trasesto dedicó “un par de años”junto con los guionistasJavier Peñalosa y MaríaRenée Prudencio a leerexclusivamente a la autorapara crear una imagentotalmente diferente a la quese imparte de ella en lassecundarias mexicanas.

Buscaba “una mujer conla que podía dialogar en loíntimo”, dijo la directora enuna conferencia de prensa.

“En las cartas había unamujer falible, contradictoria,frágil, insegura, con unsentido del humor muy par-ticular. Una mujer con laque me podía identificar nosolo yo, sino muchas queconozco”, señaló.

La sensibilidad deCastellanos y la situacióntan contradictoria en la quevivía también repercutieronen su salud mental. A lolargo de la película se le vetomando tranquilizantesante sus crisis nerviosas.

“Rosario intentósuicidarse un par de veces.Eso no está en la película,pero es parte de cosas queocurrieron en su vida”, dijoGidi. “Entraba en muchosconflictos para poder pedirsu espacio, su lugar, y queno se le diera le hacía sentirmucha rabia y mucha culpaal mismo tiempo”.

LOS ANGELES, 22 VIII18 (AP): El genio de lacomedia Carl Reiner nopuede evitar hacer un rematede su más recientenominación al Emmy.

El creador de “El show deDick Van Dyke” ya tiene 12de estos trofeos y, a sus 96años (o “96 y medio”, comoespecifica), es el candidatode mayor edad en la historiade los Emmy. Dice que ganarun 13ro le ocasionaría unproblema: cómo dividir lospremios equitativamente en-tre sus cuatro hijos.

Reiner está nominadocomo narrador del documen-tal “If You’re Not in the Obit,Eat Breakfast”, que muestracómo distintas personas _incluidos Mel Brooks y TonyBennett, ambos de 92 años _se mantienen activas yvibrantes.

Al preguntarle cómo sesiente con su nuevanominación, responde conuna salida: “Estoyimpresionado conmigomismo”.

¿No le emociona en lo másmínimo la posibilidad dellevarse otro trofeo a casa el17 de septiembre?

El patriarca puede serperdonado por nomortificarse por sus Emmy,una amplia variedad dehonores que ha recibido porescribir, dirigir y actuar en untramo que va desde 1957, porsu actuación en el programade variedades de Sid Caesar“Caesar’s Hour”, hasta 1995,cuando ganó como actorinvitado en “Mad AboutYou” (“Loco por ti”). Como

cineasta, Reiner hadirigido a grandestalentos como SteveMartin, en comediasque incluyen “TheJerk” (“El patán”) y“The Man with TwoBrains” (“El doctorerótico”).

Reiner estádispuesto a mirarseen el espejoretrovisor, pero solopara alimentarnuevos trabajos.

“ C u a n d otermino cualquier cosa, tengoque comenzar un nuevoproyecto o no tengo una razónpara levantarme. La mayoríade la gente es así: si tienenalgo que hacer, aguantan”,dijo Reiner.

Escribir libros de noficción en parte de memoriasy en parte de investigación essu principal foco por estosdías, con títulos que incluyen“I Remember Radio” y “Ap-proaching Ninety-Six: TheFilms I Love Viewing &Loved Doing”. Su próximoes “I Remember Television,Which When I’m Awake INever Don’t Watch”.

¿Cuáles son sus programaspreferidos?

“Cualquier cosa en lasnoticias que quizás diga que(Donald) Trump se irá”, dijoReiner, cuya rutina diariaincluye escribir tuits críticossobre el presidenteestadounidense y suspolíticas.

Por puro entretenimiento,elige ver películas viejasincluida su favorita, “Ran-dom Harvest”, una cinta

romántica de 1942protagonizada por GreerGarson y Ronald Colmanque exhorta enérgicamentea cualquier amante del cinea ver.

Reiner es indiferentecuando se le pregunta sobreuna campaña para queGuinness World Records loreconozca como elnominado al Emmy másviejo. Betty White fuenominada en el 2012, a los90 años, y lo ganó en el2010, a los 88.

Pero comparte conentusiasmo su teoría de porqué algunas personas sonchistosas. Es el medioambiente _ estar expuesto alhumor desde niño, cómo élcon los Marx Brothers yotras luminarias _ y simplebiología.

“Uno nace con una venahumorística”, asegura.“Algunos la tienen, otros sonmuy serios”.

SAN ANTONIO, 23V111 18 (AP): ArethaFranklin heard that TajMatthews was at a low pointin his life. Matthews, 42, acommunity activist on SanAntonio’s East Side and thegrandson of the late Rev.Claude Black, was simulta-neously grappling with per-sonal and professional cri-ses last year.

On the personal front, hewas going through a di-vorce. On the professionalfront, after nearly a decadeof mentoring at-risk localteens, he had seen 16 ofthose kids meet violentdeaths over a three-yearperiod. He heard whispersin the community question-ing whether his painstak-ing efforts were effective.

Franklin, the legendaryqueen of soul, would peri-odically ask mutual friendsabout Matthews and hisnonprofit work. When sheheard last year about hisstruggles, she gave him acall.

Unbeknownst toMatthews, Franklin was ex-periencing troubles of herown. Her health was dete-riorating, the result of a battlewith pancreatic cancer,which took her life last weekat the age of 76.

“She was very kind,”Matthews told the San An-tonio Express-News . “Menot knowing that she wassick, that phone call wenton for a little while. I waskind of whining to her aboutwhat was going on with me.”

Matthews said Franklinadvised him, “Take yourtime. Don’t let your emo-tions ruin it all.”

She also encouragedhim not to air family con-flicts in public, warning himhe’d later regret it.

“Her thing was, ‘Every-body doesn’t need to knowwhat’s going on in yourhouse,”’ Matthews said.

To be sure, Franklin livedthose words.

While she bared her soul

in the recording studio and onthe concert stage over an in-comparable six-decade career,she was relentlessly secretiveabout her personal life. Herinterviews were generally cor-dial, but came with an unspo-ken sense that some bound-aries—such as the fact thatFranklin gave birth to twochildren by the time she turned15—were not to be crossed.

While Matthews andFranklin shared only a hand-ful of personal encounters overthe years, these two childrenof the church were linked by afamily bond that goes backnearly 80 years.

His grandfather and her fa-ther, the Rev. C.L. Franklin,became friends in the early1940s, when Franklin was ayoung pastor at the New Sa-lem Baptist Church in Mem-phis, and Black was studyingat the Andover Newton Theo-logical School in Massachu-setts.

The two men had much incommon. They were born ayear apart. Both were Baptistministers. Both had long ten-ures at a single church (33years for Franklin at Detroit’sNew Bethel Baptist Churchand 49 years for Black at SanAntonio’s Mount Zion FirstBaptist Church). And both feltcompelled to use the power oftheir ministries to speak outon social injustice.

After moving his family toDetroit in 1946, the Rev.Franklin became a superstaron the gospel circuit. Touringthe country during the1950s—with a young Arethashowcasing her vocal bril-liance—he earned $4,000 perappearance, an astounding fig-ure for that period.

Matthews said his grandfa-ther called Franklin’s style—with its dramatic cadences andecstatic emotional crescen-dos—“whoop preaching’’ andrecalled that Franklin encour-aged him to bring some``whoop’’ to his own sermons.

Franklin often invitedBlack to address the congre-gation at his Detroit church

and hosted Black and hiswife, ZerNona, at theFranklin home.

“There was a network ofpeople who worked to-gether,” Matthews said.“They worked together inministry, they worked to-gether in civil rights. Backthen, of course, (African-Americans) couldn’t go to ahotel, so a lot of times theywould host people here andwhen they traveled theywould be hosted.”

In the mid-’80s, whileAretha Franklin was experi-encing a career resurgenceboosted by her chart-top-ping hit, “Freeway of Love,”Matthews met her at a tourstop in Houston.

She and her siblings wereat the home of his Houston-based cousins and a pre-ado-lescent Matthews observedthe two families eating,laughing and talking abouttheir church experiences.

“I remember she had theprettiest hair,” Matthewssaid. He also recalls thatFranklin encouraged him tojoin her in an impromptuversion of her hit, “Who’sZoomin’ Who?”

His dominant memory,however, is more abstract.

“She had a commandingpersonality, because she ranthe situation,” Matthewssaid. “Whatever was goingon, you could guaranteethat she was in control of it.”

Based on his brief, infre-quent encounters withFranklin, Matthews cameaway convinced that she wasa civil-rights activist to thecore.

“She was very much fordisruption,” he said. “Shebelieved in fighting for therights of the unheard. Shesaid, ‘You can’t affect any-thing if you don’t disruptsomething.”’

Matthews keeps remind-ing himself to heed thosewords.

PHOENIX, August 23,2018 (AP): U.S. immigra-tion authorities coerceddozens of parents sepa-rated from their children atthe border to sign docu-ments they did not under-stand, according to a com-plaint filed Thursday.

In some of the cases, par-ents gave away rights to bereunited with their chil-dren when the non-Englishspeaking mothers and fa-thers signed documents inEnglish they could notread, according to the com-plaint provided to The As-sociated Press before it wasfiled with the Departmentof Homeland Security.

In other cases, parentswho had been reunitedwere threatened with an-other separation if theydidn’t agree to be deportedwith their children, thecomplaint said.

The complaint was filedby the American Immigra-tion Lawyers Associationand the American Immi-gration Council, who sayattorneys spoke with 76parents who said they wereasked to sign forms affect-ing their rights to reunifywith their children.

All of them said theyweren’t allowed to askwhat would happen if theysigned the form.

The U.S. government

separated more than 2,500children from their parentsthis year as the Trump ad-ministration adopted a“zero-tolerance” policyrequir ing anyone whocrossed the border ille-gally to be prosecuted.That resulted in parentswho had to go to federalcourt to face criminal mis-demeanor charges of ille-gal entry to be separatedfrom their children, oftenfor months.

The policy ignited awor ldwide furor andTrump eventua l ly re -versed course.

A federal judge over-seeing a lawsuit againstthe government gave au-thorities until July 26 toreunite all families, al-though as many as 366parents who were deportedto their home countrieshave yet to be reunitedwith their children.

The complaint to theDepartment of HomelandSecurity’s Officer for CivilRights and Civil Libertiesand Inspector Generalclaims several motherssaid that Immigration andCustoms Enforcement of-ficers told them that if theydidn’t sign the form, theywould never see their chil-dren again.

Homeland Secur i tyspokeswoman Kat ie

Waldman declined com-ment Thursday on the com-plaint, saying that theagency cannot commenton pending litigation.

But a top agency offi-cial, Matthew Albence, de-nied similar allegationsduring a July 31 Senatecommittee meeting.

“A great many of theseindividuals do not wish tohave their child returnedhome with them. The rea-son most of them havecome in the first place is toget their children to theUnited States,” Albencesaid at the time.

The complaint claimedmigrant parents separatedfrom their children weresubjected to verbal andphysical abuse, includingbeing deprived of food andwater and being put intosolitary confinement.

In one example, a Gua-temalan mother who wasseparated from her 5-year-old son said an officer atthe Port Isabel, Texas, de-tention center told her tosign a document to be re-turned to her home coun-try so that she could gether son back.

The officer didn’t ex-plain what she was sign-ing and the woman did soout of desperation, accord-ing to the complaint. Thewoman, like many others,

also reported being threat-ened with solitary confine-ment because she was cry-ing so much over beingseparated from her son.

The woman, referred toonly as “A.E.” in the com-plaint, was eventually re-united with her son and iscurrently detained withhim in Dilley, Texas.

Stories of parents whosaid they were coerced intosigning off on their depor-tations and further separa-tions have circulated formonths.

But it would be fivemonths before the boy,Johan, would be reunitedwith his parents in Hondu-ras. That happened onlyafter an immigration judgegranted the boy a volun-tary departure order, whichallowed the government tofly him home.
