El Problema en la Frontera.

...

After all, this symbolic and imaginative reference Santiago Baca switch to the point of view that the reader could have a good point of references to how the people, the TV, and the politician dictate the way that you need to see the Mexicans people. Making conscience in the works “We are killing them,” is the way that the writer suggests that the reality is that we are killing the woman and the child. Is good to mention that the writer says “We are killing them,” instead “They are killing them”. He wants to be part of the problem, we need to express our point of view and do not be quite and do not say nothing in absolute like nothing is happening and think that we live in a perfect life and I do not care what happen to the other people. He is making concern that the reality is that everyone has the same right, the Mexican just only are looking for a better life for their wife and children in his Country. Putting they live in danger when they try to cross the border and some ranch means, shooter them to kille the poor Mexicans like his life do not matter. This is the reflection from the lines “The rifles I hear sound in the night are white farmers shooting blacks and browns whose ribs I see jutting out and starving children”. They are not stealing any job to someone, just they need to escape from his country because they need to feed his kids and wife. They gain the own job because they work hard every day to try to survive and make a better life and opportunity for his family, the opportunity that maybe they do not have in his country.

Do not blame the Mexican for the problems that Wall Street companies create and affect all the American families and blames the problem to the Mexican; Santiago Baca makes a good point of reflection with his poem titled "So Mexicans are Taking Jobs from Americans." In especial the word “So” meaning you are sure or you are correct in this. If you are correct, proved to me, no just only believe what the politician and the TV say. Look around and see the reality. He makes a good point with the lines “I see this, and I hear only a few people got all the money in this world, the rest count their pennies to buy bread and butter”. He saw the reality and maybe he is frustrated that why the other people do not see the same that him, maybe because they do not are in the same problem, or maybe because the American people do not care about.

In his last works on the poem, he uses the more flexible works to make the concerns in everyone. “Below that cool green sea of money, millions and millions of people fight to live, search for pearls in the darkest depths of their dreams, hold their breath for years trying to cross the poverty to just having something. They are very deep works here because, Baca express his opinion and change his opinion to symbolism, about how the Mexican people struggle to survive in his country. Were “pears “are the opportunities the US could give to you if you search and work hard for that. But is impossible to win at “the cool green sea of money” that are the Big companies in this country.

At the end everyone is the same does not matter if you are from a different country, everyone comes to the US to have a better life, not to stealing something from someone else. Always make conscience that everyone have a need to work and have a better life working hard and live with dignity this is the American Dream.
