As a Central American, I carry the importance and power of witness in my bones.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">When Netflix recently aired the series about the Exonerated Five, \u201cWhen They See Us,\u201d I had a lot of conversations with mothers about our sons.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Recently,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I sat with two educator friends, a<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Yemeni Muslim mother and an African American auntie of boys, and together we held the weight of our shared fears for them.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>We admitted that we don\u2019t want to let our boys ride public transportation, drive alone in cars, and yet we know we have to let them. We have to let them live their lives. We must insist that they are free.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">The other night in the Mission, I watched as nine police officers showed up for one intoxicated Latina youth.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>She previously caused a disruption in a restaurant and then two middle-aged white male diners followed her<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>intent on her punishment.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The men took it upon themselves to pursue this young woman who had, admittedly, behaved badly and then left. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>According to witnesses, these men were dining and drinking in the restaurant, but were not directly involved with the initial incident. They left the restaurant shortly after the young woman did.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>A young Latino, walking down the street, passed her as she was running from the men.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>He stayed around until he could tell the police what he saw: the young woman tried to get away as the men followed her and instigated conflict.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">A friend and I passed by the scene when police officers began to arrive. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>We had just left an event (calling the community to action to stop family separation and the caging of children.) There was some back and forth between the youth and the men as officers began investigating.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>One of the men yelled out, \u201cI want to press charges, she\u2019s a menace to society.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>When my friend and I challenged such a ferocious verbal attack by an adult male stranger of a young Latina, we became the next target.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>As the man proceeded to swiftly call us vulgar names, an officer approached us and directed us not to instigate. Luckily, he wasn\u2019t threatening or rude, so we agreed to stay quiet.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>On the heels of our agreeable response, the officer asked if we would leave. We politely declined to give up our legal right to observe, and stayed until the youth was finally and safely taken in for public intoxication.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>No other charges were presented, and she was told she would be out in four hours.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">Neither the restaurant, nor the young women\u2019s behavior, however, are what compelled me to write this commentary.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>As we all try to recover from the grief of three mass shootings within one month, a Latina who has the audacity to cause some trouble on a Saturday night, hardly constitutes the menace in our society.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The scene of so many cops for an entitled patron\u2019s right to play in our neighborhood demonstrates some of the less visible ways gentrification impacts Latinx youth and residents. Sadly, the treatment of this young person fails to surprise me given the treatment of Black and Brown children in public education, in the prison industrial complex, and given the current caging of migrant children.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">The menace here in the Mission is the continuous rise of robotic-looking buildings all around us, the mass dissemination of eviction notices, aided and abetted by mysterious arson and police assasination.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The menace rearing its head on this evening was the hydra of white entitlement and privilege.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Instead of considering the context that frames this youth\u2019s choices; considering that she is someone\u2019s child; instead of wondering what help or resources she might need as a young person; instead of leading with humility, compassion, maturity, or leading at all; the immediate instinct was to control, to punish, to harm.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Many Latinx Mission residents fight on multiple levels for the right to dignity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">What of these men who also behaved badly? What of so many techies and visitors who stumble drunk down Mission streets after a night out?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>These white men followed a youth, taunted her, called us names, demonstrated public intoxication,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>but only the Latinas in the situation were corrected or removed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\">I arrived on this scene feeling overwhelmed by<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>the abominable crisis of the camps, by the nightmare of so many mass shootings.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I arrived there trying to hold a slippery hope in my hands as I had just read poetry with my two sons backing me up with art and music.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The severity of the response to this Latinx youth who didn\u2019t resist or even say very much, kept saying she wanted to go home, felt like the universe just piling on. The cooperating systems that put the Exonerated Five in prison, allow the caging of children, murdered Alex Nieto and too many others here in the Mission foster a society where\u00a0police and mass shootings are normalized, and make Latinx and people of color, afraid, first and foremost, for our children. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I continually wonder about the shift that occurs when an adult, be it an entitled consumer or a culturally incompetent teacher, responds to children\u2019s behaviour by erasing their humanity.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>That is the ultimate menace\u2013\u2013the stripping of our humanity; our right to dignity and humanity trumped by the privilege and entitlement of those in power.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I, nonetheless, will continue to demand dignity for all our children. I will continue to insist that they are free.<b> <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a mother of two boys, and after decades of teaching and living in the Mission, I consider
