Monday’s letters: Promotoras, Teachers, Political Sciences, COVID and the President

(This letter originally addressed to: Dear Garfield County Commissioners)

I see a lot as an involved American citizen, I am discouraged by your resolve to reject a fair program like Promotoras. We are offering and operating many systems like this. We want other bilingual / bicultural people to lead the way and connect with our Latin American community. If local non-profit organizations or any other organization wants to come up with something like that, of course they organize, but when you have so many paintings for a program that you are able to approve and paid for through a grant, we have to take credit for it . .

Efforts to date have not been enough. Currently, 61% of cases are young Latinos, over the age of 20 to 39. We’ll have to succeed in them and find them where they are. I’m a qualified medical interpreter. I advocate for linguistic justice where everyone’s voice is heard and respected.

Interpretation and translation are important, they are one of the pieces of the puzzle of commitment of our Spanish speakers. Many times a professional linguist is not hired, resulting in incorrect information and confusion. The last one I saw was about Mike Samson for Garfield County Commissioner’s Facebook page in 2020. He translated the word “humiliated” by “humiliated,” meaning “humiliated,” so the Spanish-language edition read “I’m humiliated by example and blessed to serve you as one of your Garfield County commissioners. “In addition, the Western Slope County House Facebook page, which organized an occasion on the rights of employers and workers, contained the correct information, with the intention of being a bilingual occasion. They called one of her bilingual collaborators to interpret, she may simply not stick to the technical vocabulary of human resources experts and there is no Spaniard to complain about.

Providing interpretation and translation services is the first part, however, it will have to be related to the reach of the network, as well as Latinos in leadership roles. It’s not enough to have smart intentions. Google, along with our county commissioners, does not target.

A moment to thank our teachers, principals and staff

It’s hard to find a positive side. However, those who are there value the location.

At the RE-1 Wednesday School District Board meeting, it became clear that existing situations are uns sustainable and are looking for solutions. Volunteer members of the board of directors and management of our district are very involved and executing our name, as demonstrated by this three-hour, 30-minute meeting. Thank you all for taking on the most demanding situations you didn’t know. you signed up when you took office.

One of the many unforeseen projects is to create a state-of-the-art knowledge site to inform us of the number of school-consistent COVID-19 instances. This should not be done in the state and there are no minor achievements to address. Thank you.

As with students, the well-being of teachers and staff is a primary concern. As our Superintendent Rob Stein said, it’s like the analogy of putting on an oxygen mask before doing it for the child. If our school team breaks; Our schools are collapsing. We can’t lose teachers, guards, staff, etc. , for now. Don’t be surprised if we do. We haven’t had enough replacement teachers for years and that’s even worse now. Thanks to teachers and staff for their compassionate teaching, concern, cleanliness, and additional workload.

My husband and I recently asked each of our son’s tevery oneers how we can do it. Nobody asked for anything. However, everyone was involved with their academics and very grateful to be interviewed. Consider a way to express your gratitude. Not just because it’s almost Thanksgiving, but because they’re there for our children and teach long-term generations. Parents and academics who play through a card, TEXT message, email or perhaps a non-public gift or gift certificate from a local corporate pass. a long way All that comes from the center is what counts.

Thanks to Roaring Fork School for everything they do. We’re here long term and together.

Political Science 101

Two of the few positions that our new US Congresswoman Lauren Boebert has obviously expressed in her crusade is that she loves freedom and hates socialism. The challenge is that Boebert knows nothing of any of those principles. Look, Lauren, you’re going to get your first political science lesson.

You think you’re free? Large companies control every aspect of their lives. They what you want, what you want and what you are worth paying. Thanks to Citizens United, Big Money dominates our electoral process.

External influences will affect your life, who will it be, those who have come to your charge through greed, deception and theft, or freely elected representatives of the people?

Freedom is a license. To take to the streets to protest peacefully against injustice is freedom; walking down the street without mask or social distance is a license; walking down the street with an open gun is a license.

Socialism and communism are ideologies followed by Karl Marx, but it is the same. Communism is a political theory through which the proletariat is organized into soviets, communes or autonomous collectives.

At first, a strong central state wanted to protect the Soviets from imperialism. As global communism becomes affected, the need for this government disappears and will disappear.

This is where communism fraud comes in and why it is no longer provided in Russia and Eastern Europe. A strong central state is never anything more powerful as long as the proletariat does not and falls out of position.

Socialism, on the other hand, is a widespread economic formula around the world, adding here in the United States: A. Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, agricultural subsidies, fossil fuel subsidies, and the Cares Act are all very socialist.

Social democracy in Western and Northern Europe has savings and benefits for others that our capitalist system, which is by no means an organized methodology, does not provide.

The president is removed

COVID-19 now kills another 1000 people a day. El Paso brings refrigerated trucks for the dead. Many hospitals are saturated with virus cases. The situation is getting worse. Hospital staff are at a critical point. Imagine taking 12-hour shifts while wrapped in protective clothing. Many of his patients would possibly die. You’re afraid to move from home to your family circle because you might get inflamed with the virus. There’s no end in sight. If you’re in poor health and can’t work, you may not have enough cash to survive.

The ultimate fundamental question in my brain is how will this virus be defeated?And in the meantime, how can we solve the situation?This is a crisis country of unprecedented magnitude in more than a hundred years. A hospital, county, or state can’t win this fight. Only the country can face such a serious problem. This country fought the War of Independence to form, fought the War of 1812 to continue and fought the Civil War to solidify the country.

National disorders require national responses. Only the central government has the resources and authority to face such a primary and fatal challenge; even in giant states or regional disorders, it is general for emergencies to be declared to mobilize the strength of the federal government; only the federal government has the capacity to take care of this struggle. The head of our government is President Donald Trump. Recently, he said the virus would disappear until November 4. He said we were turning the corner for the better. These things don’t happen.

I think the president will be removed from the workplace now. He absolutely failed in his number one duty to protect the American people. Pence could just take over. If Pence doesn’t feel well, keep the succession. If that doesn’t work, Biden starts early. At 66 days, this may mean that another 66,000 will die.
