LETTER to the Editor: In support of Mexico

A statement to Mexico and its people from a group of foreign residents in Merida: 

–          We feel the need to voice our solidarity and intent to help our adopted country any way we can.

–          We recognize the important role Mexico and its people play in the economy and social fabric of the United States.

–          We have chosen to make our home here in Mexico and despite the current US politics, we stand with our Mexican neighbors.

–          We have always felt welcomed by Mexican hospitality and embraced by the people.

–          We are embarrassed by the treatment of Mexico and its people by our current government.

–          We believe in open arms, not closed walls.

–          If more walls are built, we have shovels.
