Born to emigrate, born to prey

Abstract

Trump's obsession, which is already reaching pathological dimensions, is the construction of a 3,169-kilometer-long wall to stop the transit of illegal immigrants from the United Mexican States to the United States of America; that wall also runs through the consular route, but in a subtle, silent way, disguised as a legality whose compliance and result may be the denial of visas. Both routes point to the same objective. Additionally, although it may seem totally nonsense, in various countries of the world the ministries and secretariats of culture are leading their efforts towards the recognition of Afro-descendants and their intangible cultural heritage. Well, while this is happening, in various corners of the planet the cry "We are all migrants!" Is raised, and very timid voices, barely stammering, pronounce: "We are all Afro-descendants!" Evolutionarily, this is true. All those voices are right. The funny thing is that both processes can coincide to be linked to a paleoanthropology book.
