  • Exploitation, Unemployment, and the Legality of the INS Raids
    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE La migra in 1980s Los Angeles: Exploitation, unemployment, and the legality of the INS raids A graduate project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Arts In History By Arnoldo Toral May 2021 2 Introduction On September 14, 1979, Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) agents detained and beat twenty-seven-year-old Mexican American Vietnam War veteran Roy Gonzalez during an immigration raid in San Jose, California. Aided by the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF), Gonzalez and his attorney charged in a suit that he was “the victim of excessive, illegal, and unjustified force and abusive language when he was detained during a raid at a food processing plant, where he was employed as an electrician.” INS agents, assisted by the San Jose Police Department, conducted this workplace raid where Gonzalez—a U.S. citizen— was “beaten as a result of the illegal and indiscriminate harassment of Mexican Americans and other Latino citizens.” Curiously, the immigration raid had been under way for almost an hour “when three immigration officers in plainclothes grabbed Gonzalez from behind, knocked him to the floor and handcuffed him.” At the time of the assault, he was operating heavy machinery and had earplugs on.1 Gonzalez, an American citizen, had no idea what was going on and posed no threat, however, his legal status afforded him a certain privilege as opposed to others. A later INS worksite raid in Boulder, Colorado tells a similar story. In late April of 1982, Jose Armando Morales—an undocumented worker—ran in a panic from la migra who conducted a raid on the Boulder Valley Poultry Farm where he worked.

DE TLATELOLCO A PLAZA JUÁREZ El Servicio Exterior. Una Función Pública que Demanda Vocación.

En dicha ocasión atestiguaron el acto formal altos funcionarios de la Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores, como el Lic. Emilio O. Rabasa, Secretario de Relaciones Exteriores; Lic. Rubén González Sosa, Subsecretario de Relaciones Exteriores; Lic. Martha Lara, Coordinadora del concurso de ingreso al SEM y Lic. Jaime Cordero, del mismo departamento. El presente es un testimonio de la permanencia de 12 diplomáticos que estamos en servicio activo, quienes ingresamos al SEM hace 34 años, plenos de ilusiones, planes y proyectos; cuya vocación, entrega y lealtad ha sido demostrada en el transcurso de su vida profesional. Este hecho es a la vez, una constancia de que en México desde hace muchos años, tanto el ingreso, como las promociones entre categorías, han estado reglamentados y se realizan a través de concursos abiertos. Como ya ha venido siendo una práctica, para el concurso de nuevo ingreso, se invita a egresados de varias disciplinas del saber humano, con especial preferencia hacia quienes han estudiado una especialidad enmarcada en las humanidades.1 Por lo que se refiere a la Primera Generación de 1973 (hubo una segunda promoción ese mismo año), la Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores publicó la convocatoria respectiva, a la que acudimos más de 500 aspirantes, quienes aceptamos concursar por 10 plazas disponibles en la categoría de Vicecónsul.
