NEW: outside the immigration office migrants held a peaceful protests, pushing back against government narrative that it was migrants who started the fire. They asked for government accountability, saying “we’re human beings, not animals. Treat us with dignity”

JUST NOW: Carlos Enrique, 25, stood outside immigration office and called the tragedy “a catastrophe. We want to do things right. But they make it impossible.”

[Eyder Peralta @eyderp]

This was the cover of @reforma, one of the main dailies in Mexico, today. It included a huge, uncensored picture of the bodies of the migrants who died in a fire at an immigration detention center in Juarez. I think it speaks to how migrants are dehumanized in this hemisphere.

This has been a hard week at @npr not least because it is losing legendary international reporters. @spoggioli1 and @deborahamos who paved the way for those of us who followed in their intrepid and knowledgeable footsteps. 🫡 I will miss your voices on air.

[Eyder Peralta @eyderp]

The longest-serving correspondent on @npr's international desk hangs up her headphones. Sylvia Poggioli represents everything great in broadcast journalism. What a career, what an inspiration. @npr will not be the same without her

#Nicaragua es lo que soy y todo lo que tengo, y que nunca voy a dejar de ser, ni dejar de tener, mi memoria y mis recuerdos, mi lengua y mi escritura, mi lucha por su libertad por la que he empeñado mi palabra. Mientras más Nicaragua me quitan, más Nicaragua tengo.

[Gioconda Belli @GiocondaBelliP]

y te amo patria de mis sueños y mis penas
y te llevo conmigo para lavarte las manchas en secreto
susurrarte esperanzas
y prometerte curas y encantos que te salven.
