Hello All,
I cannot go in details here, because it is not the proper place, besides
that I still don't know why; but I was kicked out of the group by the
person that I went to join, and later on other two members that came to
join the group were asked to leave as well. In our last days the three that
got kicked out worked together and it was for the best. We bonded and we
became friends, brainstorming and decision making was way easier,
horizontal.
We, the original group of four, found two …
[View More]asylum seekers in Mazatlan.
After that two of us, an Italian gay person and myself, supported the
asylum seekers all the way to Tijuana. While the two others the group flew
from Mazatlan to Tijuana.
One of the asylum seekers, man in his 40s, had an accident the day before
about 1pm. He tried to aboard a cargo train while in movement. He hit his
face against the train, and was ejected back out to he ground, where as he
said, "went into sleep really quickly" until in the dark of the night when
he was feeling cold. At that time he just dragged himself away from the
railroad tracks to avoid potential incoming trains, to just to curl and
continue sleeping again until the morning when the sun was too hot. A few
hours later we found him. Cuts on his face and hands.
In the same railroad area, among train containers, there was a 16 years old
and he also was supported.
Both of them are now in Tijuana. The kid is in a safe place, with shelter
and food, wiht moms and kids, and already got a number enlisting himself
for asylum. -I lost contact with the man. But last thing I know is that he
has a place where to sleep and eat with the person that kicked me out of
the group. I hope he is okay. Both were given new clothes, and shoes while
in Mazatlan. The funds came from donations like yours. Thank you for that.
We didn't help tons of people, we helped only two.
At the beginning when I was in Tlaquepaque, Jalisco I did some short
interviews and one of them was with Vivian
https://asylumseekerscaravan.org/2018/11/20/2018-11-18-vivian-a-computer-te…
which we kept in touch. At the time, we couldn't help them. But at least we
have been on WhatsApp. Yesterday latest news, they were in Mexicali for a
few days already and has not eaten, he/she said was hungry. And that a bus
was living tomorrow to Tijuana, but for only the ones that can afford the
ticket. I sent some money, but they was not able to pick it up, the local
store asked for Mexican Electoral ID. So, we lost, 1000 pesos. I had sent
enough for Vivian and partner, and some change. I have to say that I didn't
ask for money to support my flight ticket to Jalisco. And my expenses
there, were covered by donations that my new gay friend had received.
During the trip up north Mexico, I was in contact with another small group
that was made up of three mom, two husbands, four children (including a
baby that was born in Puebla, after jumps of the truck sent the mom to the
hospital).

There are not public videos of the two we helped directly, because they
wanted it private. They allow me to interview them when we arrived to
Tijuana, for me to remember them.But they are okay with some photos in my
facebook account, you may see them there.
Thank you to all of you that supported with moral encouragement, and some
that donated. If you feel that you want to donate, because what I lived and
experienced and the work I saw done today I recommend

Some of us had recently been talking about Layer 2 vs. Layer 3 roaming.
Well, it looks like HTTP/3 is basically a TCP replacement on top of UDP,
and it allows a connection to continue between IP address changes by using
a per-connection UUID.
https://blog.erratasec.com/2018/11/some-notes-about-http3.html
We can expect this to be implemented, at the very least, in the most
popular web browsers but possible other programs as well.
This could really mitigate the issues with non-roaming capable …

Hello all,
A really quick update. For more deets, please check:
https://asylumseekerscaravan.org.
As Jessie had mentioned in a couple occasions, things there with the
caravan can change from minute to minute. Well, the ticket from Mexico City
had to changed for Guadalajara, and I am leaving tonight 11:20pm.
One of the alerting things yesterday, is that a group of folks that went
ahead in two buses, not supported by us have to clarify this, were stopped
in Agua Prieta, Hermosillo. Based on a …
[View More]video taken by a local woman, a
WhatsApp audio convo from one of the asylum seekers, and a report from
Pueblo Sin Fronteras, two busses were stopped about 11pm on the night of
the 15th. A child and a woman were hurt but Mexican authorities when they
were forcefully were taken out the bus. They asylum seekers were scared
because they were not being taken to any oficial facility and were just
driven around for hours. The asylum seeker reporting at the time that
things were happening said her phone was very low in charge.
The Mexican authorities involved in this scary stop and arrest were the
Mexican Immigration, and Judicial Police. According to one of the asylum
seekers, at the moment of the arrest, middle of the night, some asylum
seekers escaped. But, as things were developing, the authorities realized
that they were getting themselves in a big trouble because there has been a
judicial order (Amparo 16-18) given by judge, Jonathan Bass Herrera from a
Court in Mexico City and notified to all authorities in the country, that
the busses should not be stopped and the asylum seekers be let pass.
Eventually all (about 60) were let go, some went to a refuge, and yesterday
at about 5am they continue their journey to Tijuana.
Also, as seen in the video, a child was with fever and the authorities were
told, but as woman says, the Mexican Immigration didn't care and ignored
them.

Hello All, this a very quick update.
* Donation Status - https://rally.org/asylumseekerscaravan
* New Website - https://asylumseekerscaravan.org/
* Caravan and Jessie's whereabouts.
* Goal Status
* I am going in.
*Donation Status*, out current goal is 15K and so far we have close to 6k.
Please donate and you haven't done it. The website it is here:
https://rally.org/asylumseekerscaravan
*New Website*, this past Sunday I went to the Aaron Swartz Day event at the
Internet Archive in SF. While …
[View More]there I got to see some familiar faces, and
also I met more officially Steve Phillips from Noisebridge. Anyhow, to make
the story short, since I have to go sleep, and wake up early for work,
Steve kindly volunteered to help our group to migrate our just plain html
static website to a WorkPress type, where the public and others group
members can also add content.
Steve and I did an all nighter right after the Aaron's event, working all
night at Noisebridge and going home about 8am. Similar hacker schedule
followed the next two night, which ended in our nice website. Many thanks
Steve. Muy agradecido.
*Jessie* followed the caravan from Mexico City to Queretaro, and then she
returned to Mexico City when she learned that more asylum seekers were
coming. Jessie, been talking and interviewing and learning more about the
situation.
T*he Goal*, which we are very laser focus, is as mentioned on my previous
email and as the donation site mentions, is to provide transportation to as
many we can to women, children, and LGBTQ vulnerable folks. And for what we
have collected in donation, we are about to make the first trip from Mexico
City to Tijuana. As Jessie reports, the situation there is very fluid, so
not only things change moment to moment, but also she has to be very
patience and wait for their choices. But, again, the first trip is this
Sunday. *This weekend.* And the money that we have is only allowing about
60 people. We could offer more, if more folks would donate. The road I have
taken many years ago, and there a very long one, and empty areas and
distance town in between.
Circling back to Jessie, in a way, because she is by herself, someone else
(I am not sure if I can mention his name here) is coming over this
Saturday. And, about half hour ago or so I bought a flight ticket to go
help them both. Three of us will go with asylum seekers all the way to
Tijuana. I am scheduled to arrive to Mexico City on Saturday morning. *I
am going in, *and my intention is to team up with the other two in this
task, and at the same time try to document the trip photographing. I am not
sure how long I am going to be there, but the most that I can push it is
until Dec 8. I should be uploading photos at my flickr account, so if you
want to help spread the word, feel free to use those photos, they are
intended to be here: https://flickr.com/danielarauz/sets, as often as it
will possible.
Please, if you haven't donate, please do. We really are using every single
cent to support those in need.
