La evidencia estadística sobre el aumento de la discriminación por el color de piel y sus efectos en la vida de los mexicanos es abrumadora, sin embargo, en el país latinoamericano apenas se empieza a hablar de este problema

Layda Sansores has thrown the punch. After a series of hesitations in the middle of the lawsuit with Ricardo Monreal, the governor has leaked a series of conversations on WhatsApp in which the senator supposedly helps Alejandro wing Moreno, national president of the…
Florida Keys faces stark reality as seas rise
(The Guardian) Long famed for its spectacular fishing, sprawling coral reefs and literary residents such as Ernest Hemingway, the Florida Keys is now acknowledging a previously unthinkable reality: it faces being overwhelmed by the rising seas and not every home can be saved. Following a grueling seven-hour public meeting on Monday, held in the appropriately named city of Marathon, officials agreed to push ahead with a plan to elevate streets throughout the Keys to keep them from perpetual flooding, while admitting they do not have the money to do so. If the funding isn’t found, the Keys will become one of the first places in the US—and certainly not the last—to inform residents that certain areas will have to be surrendered to the oncoming tides. “The water is coming and we can’t stop it,” said Michelle Coldiron, mayor of Monroe county, which encompasses the Keys. “Some homes will have to be elevated, some will have to be bought out. It’s very difficult to have these conversations with homeowners, because this is where they live. It can get very emotional.” The islands’ porous limestone allows the rising seawater to bubble up from below, meaning it just takes high tides on sunny days to turn roads into ponds, while global heating is also spurring fiercer hurricanes that can occasionally crunch into the archipelago.
Death toll in Florida collapse rises to 4; 159 still missing
(AP) With nearly 160 people unaccounted for and at least four dead after a seaside condominium tower collapsed into a smoldering heap of twisted metal and concrete, rescuers used both heavy equipment and their own hands to comb through the wreckage on Friday in an increasingly desperate search for survivors. As scores of firefighters in Surfside, just north of Miami, toiled to locate and reach anyone still alive in the remains of the 12-story Champlain Towers South, hopes rested on how quickly crews using dogs and microphones could complete their grim, yet delicate task.
Study: 29% of tourists are looking forward to enjoying Mexico City’s beaches
(Worldcrunch) A quick look at a map of Mexico will tell you that its capital, Mexico City, lies pretty much smack dab in the middle of the country. With the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico a five-hour drive in either direction, Mexico City is as landlocked as they come. Unlike many other major cities, it doesn’t even have a river. So this may come as a bit of a surprise that a study on tourism in the Mexican capital, conducted by the city’s business association COPARMEX, found that almost 30% of potential foreign visitors to the bustling megalopolis said they were particularly looking forward to enjoying "its beaches." As daily Publimetro reports, most respondents to the study, hailing from 17 different countries, even named names—citing "Cancún and Acapulco" (respectively 1,600 and 400 km away) as the beaches they couldn’t wait to go to. Alberto de la Fuente, the head of Moratti Strategic Business which compiled this “Macro Study on Reactivating the Tourist Economy” study, said the results showed the "potential" of tourists who know very little about Mexico but could be attracted with the right advertising campaigns.
Helicopter carrying Colombia’s president attacked; all safe
(AP) Colombian President Iván Duque said Friday that a helicopter carrying him and several senior officials came under fire in the southern Catatumbo region bordering Venezuela, in a rare instance of a direct attack on a presidential aircraft. Duque said everyone on board the helicopter was safe, including himself, Defense Minister Diego Molano, Interior Minister Daniel Palacios and the governor of Norte de Santander state, Silvano Serrano. A video released by the presidency showed several bullet holes in the Colombian air force helicopter. Duque did not provide the time of the attack or say who he believed carried it out, but several armed groups are known to operate in the area.
3 dead, hundreds injured by rare tornado in Czech Republic
(AP) A rare tornado tore through southeastern Czech Republic, killing at least three people and injuring hundreds, rescue services said on Friday. The tornado formed late Thursday as strong thunderstorms hit the entire country. Seven towns and villages have been badly damaged, with entire buildings turned into ruins and cars overturned. Over 120,000 households were without electricity.
Russia’s northern passage
(WSJ) Melting ice in the Arctic Ocean is bringing a centuries-old dream closer to reality for Russia: a shipping passage through its northern waters that could put it at the center of a new global trade shipping route. After one of the warmest years on record, the Kremlin is near to realizing its controversial plans for a global shipping route in its high north—plans that have put Moscow at odds with the U.S. and could create friction with China, two countries that also have designs on the Arctic. Warming in the Arctic is happening twice as fast as the rest of the planet. Last year, ice coverage reached some of the lowest levels ever recorded, and it is only expected to shrink further in 2021. That is pushing Moscow to build infrastructure along the route, which can cut the distance of trips between Europe and Asia by a third compared with shipping through the politically fraught South China Sea or congested Malacca Straits currently used for cargo.
Russia vs. U.K. in the Black Sea
(Foreign Policy) Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said his country would respond aggressively to any attempts by other countries to enter waters off Crimea that it deems Russian territory. Referring to Russia’s allegation of measures it took to deter the HMS Defender, a British ship that sailed close to Crimea on Wednesday, he said Russian forces “may drop bombs and not just in the path but right on target.” Speaking to the BBC, the Defender’s captain, Vince Owen, said the vessel’s path was deliberately taken to uphold its right to navigation in an area it deems part of Ukraine’s territory. Ukraine and the United Kingdom deepened naval ties on Wednesday, when the two countries signed an agreement to boost Ukraine’s naval capabilities and create new naval bases in the Black Sea and Sea of Azov.
Russia mandates vaccinations for some as virus cases surge
(AP) They tried grocery giveaways and lotteries for new cars and apartments. But an ambitious plan of vaccinating 30 million Russians by mid-June still has fallen short by a third. So now, many regional governments across the vast country are obligating some workers to get vaccinated and requiring the shots to enter certain businesses, like restaurants. At east 14 Russian regions—from Moscow and St. Petersburg to the remote far-eastern region of Sakhalin—made vaccinations mandatory this month for employees in certain sectors, such as government offices, retail, health care, education, restaurants, fitness centers, beauty parlors and other service industries. Moscow authorities said companies should suspend without pay employees unwilling to get vaccinated. As of Monday, all Moscow restaurants, cafes and bars will admit only customers who have been vaccinated, have recovered from COVID-19 in the past six months, or can provide a negative coronavirus test from the previous 72 hours.
Myanmar fighting since coup has displaced 230,000 people, UN says
(Reuters) An estimated 230,000 people have been displaced by fighting in Myanmar and need assistance, the United Nations said on Thursday, as a major armed ethnic group expressed concern about military force, civilian deaths and a widening of the conflict. Myanmar has been in crisis since a February 1 coup ousted an elected government, prompting nationwide anger that has led to protests, killings and bombings, and battles on several fronts between troops and newly formed civilian armies. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), said relief operations were ongoing but were being hindered by armed clashes, violence and insecurity in the country.
Parts of Sydney going into lockdown as virus outbreak grows
(AP) Parts of Sydney will go into lockdown late Friday as a coronavirus outbreak in Australia’s largest city continued to grow. Health authorities reported an additional 22 locally transmitted cases and imposed a weeklong lockdown in four areas, saying people could leave their homes only for essential purposes. “If you live or work in those local government areas, you need to stay at home unless absolutely necessary,” said Gladys Berejiklian, the premier of New South Wales state.
WHO warns of ‘humanitarian disaster’ in Syria if no cross-border aid renewal
(Reuters) Failure to renew a cross-border aid operation into Syria which expires next month could result in a new “humanitarian disaster” for the country’s rebel-held region in the northwest, a World Health Organization spokesman said on Friday.
Child soldiers carried out attack that killed at least 138 people in Burkina Faso, officials say
(Washington Post) The deadliest massacre that Burkina Faso has suffered since extremists invaded the West African nation was perpetrated by mostly children, officials said, injecting fresh tragedy into the six-year conflict that has killed thousands. A group of young boys helped carry out the early June attack that claimed at least 138 lives in the northeastern village of Solhan, government spokesman Ousseni Tamboura said. “The attackers were mostly children between the ages of 12 and 14,” he told reporters this week in the capital, Ouagadougou. The announcement comes as 10 percent of Burkina Faso’s schools have shuttered due to rising insecurity.
The art of Belgian zen
(The Economist) Allowing a soldier to go AWOL is a misfortune. Allowing a soldier to go AWOL armed with stolen machineguns, four rocket-launchers and a pledge to “join the resistance” and kill Belgium’s top virologist looks like carelessness. The tale of Jurgen Conings, a 46-year-old army sharpshooter, who disappeared in May, has diverted Belgium. A month-long manhunt featuring special forces from five countries, drones and sniffer dogs turned up nothing. Instead, Mr Conings’ body was found on June 20th by a local mayor. He was mountain-biking nearby and noticed a smell.
Stuff happens in Belgium. From the outside, it is a grey country famous for fries, Magritte, chocolate and as the home of the EU—a project whose entire ethos is making European history one of dull process rather than bloody war. From the inside, it is chaos, to the point that a tooled-up anti-lockdown terrorist nicknamed “Belgian Rambo” roaming the woods seems par for the course. This is, after all, a country where someone sabotaged a nuclear-power station in 2014, without causing too much of a stir. Sometimes the disorder is merely amusing—trains being delayed because of a fire at a waffle factory, for example. Or when officials blamed the destruction of blueprints for Brussels’s tunnel system on hungry (and undiscerning) mice.
Surviving Belgium requires a certain state of mind. Call it Belgian zen: an ability to cope with a way of life that is sometimes disturbing, sometimes wonderful, but always weird. The country has survived happily without a federal government for up to two years at a time. It is the world’s most successful failed state. Belgians are almost as rich as Germans and better off than Britons or the French. Their health care is excellent. Property is cheap; wages are high. A Belgian life is, on average, long and prosperous. In such circumstances, a heavily armed soldier roaming the woods can be brushed off with dark jokes. As long as Belgium avoids true tragedy, nothing will disturb Belgian zen.

El
peso cayó 2.25%, 43 centavos en 15 minutos y la bolsa de valores perdió 106.21
puntos, lo que demuestra que AMLO no está logrando un crecimiento para el país.
• En
contraste, Aguascalientes es la segunda entidad con mayor tasa de crecimiento
económico ya que solamente en 2018 tuvimos un crecimiento de 8.6%: Báez Leos.
Tras
la renuncia del hidrocálido Carlos Urzúa como secretario de Hacienda y Crédito
Público y quien era de las pocas personas congruentes y preparadas con las que
contaba la mal llamada cuarta transformación, México volvió a caer en la
incertidumbre, así lo dio a conocer el presidente del Comité Directivo Estatal
del PAN, Gustavo Báez Leos.
“Sin
duda esta situación cimbró a México, ya que el peso cayó 2.25% o sea 43
centavos en 15 minutos y la bolsa de valores cayó 1.22% perdiendo 106.21 puntos,
lo que demuestra que AMLO no está logrando un crecimiento para el país como
tanto lo presume, si no que estamos siendo testigos de un claro retroceso y
desaceleración económica que afectará las inversiones”, aseveró.
Báez
Leos mencionó que a Acción Nacional le preocupa la manera con la que se está
manejando el gobierno Federal, ya que está llevando a México al desempleo y
fugas de capitales, dejando claro que la misiva enviada por Carlos Urzúa no es
una renuncia, es más una denuncia.
“Las
preguntas que nos estamos haciendo todos es ¿qué viene para México con alguien
que está “gobernando” sin rumbo, con alguien que ratifica a un secretario sin
que la cámara de diputados lo apruebe, qué nos espera con alguien que insiste
en asegurar que México crecerá en materia económica al 4% teniendo una previsión
de crecimiento menos al 1.7%?”, resaltó.
En
contraste, Aguascalientes es la segunda entidad con mayor tasa de crecimiento
económico ya que solamente en 2018 tuvimos un crecimiento de 8.6%, y el día de
ayer el gobernador del Estado Martín Orozco Sandoval, arrancó la construcción de
la planta Continental que permitirá la creación de mil empleos de alto valor agregado,
demostrando así que Acción Nacional sí sabe gobernar.
Para
finalizar, el dirigente blanquiazul dijo que Acción Nacional exhorta al
Presidente de la República a que asuma con absoluta responsabilidad el manejo
de la economía, velando por los intereses de la nación y tomando en cuenta las
preocupantes observaciones del exsecretario de Hacienda, Carlos Urzúa.
Por su
parte y al hacer uso de la voz, la diputada federal Martha González, manifestó
que las señales del riesgo económico que se ven para México son preocupantes,
ya que la economía está estancada y los indicadores van a la baja, además de
que las calificadoras tienen al país en una perspectiva negativa.
“Hoy
le toca a la cámara de diputados hacer un nuevo nombramiento que una vez más
López Obrador se pasa por el arco del triunfo, da por hecho que se va aprobar, hoy
sesiona la Comisión Permanente en donde se establecerá un nuevo periodo
extraordinario para que se haga esta ratificación”, finalizó.
En la
rueda de prensa llevada a cabo en las instalaciones del CDE, estuvieron presentes
los diputados locales Gladys Ramírez, Paty García, Alex Serrano y Manuel
Velasco.

Meu nome é Bagdá MY NAME IS BAGHDAD Direção – Caru Alves de Souza (96 min., Ficção, Brasil, 2020) The 17-year-old Baghdad commutes back and forth between her mother's hairdressing salon - a place where gender identities find an emancipatory place away from normative constraints - and the skate parks on the outskirts of Sao Paulo, where exactly the opposite is the case. For as a young woman, she is outnumbered especially by the latter, and often spends her time in vain objecting to the machismo of her male friends. Until she meets a group of female skaters and the desire for co-determination in the skate park is only the first part of what will be fought for in solidarity. My Name is Baghdad tells a story of challenge - of a young person who is ready to challenge public space, to claim space for closed perspectives, to contest gender norms.
