00:00:01.520 --> 00:00:14.839
Then hello. How welcome and welcome
I am Luis Miguel Salgado, welcome.

2
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:18.359
This is what a good question and
I am very happy today, as I

3
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.960
am accompanied by an exceptional woman,
truly spectacular, for everything she does,

4
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:26.399
for everything she has done, for
everything I have studied, but especially for

5
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:32.079
everything she is. For me it
is a pleasure and privilege, brenda brenda

6
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:36.000
Manzano, welcome, how you are. All right. Thank you very much,

7
00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:39.240
very excited to Luis, really very
much for this invitation. I'

8
00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:45.280
m very, very glad you'
re with us and let me introduce Brinda

9
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:48.880
Manzano to you as she deserves.
She is the director of the Civil Organization

10
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:54.920
Preparation for Professional Freedom for more than
twenty years in areas of strategic importance in

11
00:00:55.159 --> 00:01:03.159
human resources and human and organizational development
of the Preparation for Freedom Program. It

12
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:11.319
is an organization that collaborates with the
prisons to support them in the network Help

13
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:15.480
me please, resocialization. I don' t know why that one brings me,

14
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:22.239
what a terrible thing it is,
obviously, to reintegrate them back into

15
00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:26.760
society in such a good way.
This is for men, women and adolescents

16
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:32.719
who are under pressure concerned about the
difficulties faced by those who have been deprived

17
00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:38.120
of their liberty. By wanting to
be reintegrated into society, it empowers people

18
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:45.840
by providing them with skills and tools
that enable them to improve their quality of

19
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.680
life by fostering work, values,
effort and resilience. It is not all

20
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:57.319
an act of social responsibility, but
it is also a strategy to build a

21
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:02.200
more positive future for society as a
whole. Brenda, by offering educational opportunities,

22
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:07.840
is investing the possibility of transforming staff
and in building a safer and fairer

23
00:02:07.919 --> 00:02:14.360
Community. If it' s okay
with you, as I tell you,

24
00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:43.439
we always start to apologize, because
tongue- tucking, but part of the

25
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:44.800
magic we start or brenda trail Manzano
is with us on what good question.

26
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:47.479
The truth is that I am very
happy my dear Brenda and good to begin

27
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.719
with, and before you put words
harder to produce, I want to ask

28
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:57.240
you something. This is the question
I always ask all my guests. Beyond

29
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:01.960
what you studied, beyond what you' ve worked beyond everything. Tell us,

30
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:07.680
please, who' s brende apple. Well, I could define myself

31
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:13.879
at this point in my life Luis, as a much more conscious person,

32
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:21.080
in the emotional part, in the
spiritual part, in the part as a

33
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.280
mother, also as a professionalist.
So, I think today I' m

34
00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:32.159
at a stage where I define myself
with all those nuances let' s say

35
00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:35.560
from all my life experiences. And, well, I think that has also

36
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:42.520
led me today to have a social
conscience and that just took me to where

37
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:46.159
I am now. And well,
it seemed incredible, but at almost forty

38
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:52.360
- nine years old, I think
that now, because I have already found

39
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.120
my sense of life with this work
that I am doing today. So,

40
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:59.319
well, that' s how you
could define me. Today you give me

41
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:05.199
a lot, a lot, a
lot of tools to ask you and,

42
00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:13.159
before anything else, I would love
to know why to be aware of where

43
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:17.160
consciousness comes from, why this fact
of saying now I have a different consciousness,

44
00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:23.680
that something significant has happened in your
life, that marked in a different

45
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:29.199
way, a before and a after. This consciousness came by spontaneous generation or,

46
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:31.800
suddenly, over the years, also
helped you say" honey".

47
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.639
I think the road is this way
ay, because I think she' s

48
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:41.800
a sumana in a lot of things. No, but, well, mainly

49
00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:48.480
I think you' re aware of
why you' re here today, why

50
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:51.480
did he bring you life to this? Why did you have to live all

51
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:57.439
that you have lived so that just, then, all those pieces, like

52
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.360
you' re putting them together and
you' re rebuilding them, and today

53
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:06.160
I' m more aware of that, of who I am, of all

54
00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:10.720
that I' ve learned, of
all my experiences, good bad ones that

55
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:14.199
have built me up. Finally,
then I think that' s why I

56
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:15.560
' m more conscious. Besides,
I' m going to tell you,

57
00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:19.560
I mean, it sounds amazing,
but the work I do today and with

58
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:24.519
the people I collaborate with today and
the people I help with today, so

59
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:30.759
to speak, have also made me
very aware of my present of why we

60
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:34.600
are here in life. So I
think that' s more like that,

61
00:05:34.879 --> 00:05:40.399
I mean, I' m more
open today. Let' s say experiences,

62
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:45.160
learning, that is, I think
that' s why I have and

63
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:46.720
more awareness of who I am about
how I' ve built up. That

64
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:53.319
' s right, how I see
it, how you came to help these

65
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:58.519
young people or these adults. How
did you get on this show? Because,

66
00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:01.279
obviously, the question would be why
you didn' t go. I

67
00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:05.639
don' t know accountant, actress, singer, how I know you don

68
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:08.879
' t at last have it.
Yeah, I wanted to be hey,

69
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:13.279
I wanted to model, ah life
very well. I mean, I didn

70
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:16.800
' t even take classes to become
a professional model. But, well,

71
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:21.600
my mom, you know in those
times of good, those places pervert you

72
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:26.439
and well, you know what,
and well she did me for your deals.

73
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.120
But this good one, because what
I can tell you is that life

74
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.600
alone brought me. It' s
not something I looked for or what I

75
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:39.480
can tell you is that today I
have that awareness that I liked all my

76
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:43.240
life how to help that, yes, that is, all my life.

77
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:48.519
I think I had that feeling of
doing something else for others and today I

78
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:53.639
have that conscience. Finally, why
did you bring this to me here?

79
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:57.800
But the truth I can tell you
that it was a coincidence or good or

80
00:06:57.920 --> 00:07:02.680
good departures say experiences, but it
was so in a way that I never

81
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.680
imagined, because, well, I
was at a stage completely in my professional

82
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:11.199
life, as you said right at
the beginning. Well, I' ve

83
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:15.920
been working on all the issues of
human resources, training, recruitment, etcetera.

84
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:19.000
Everything that has to do with staff
in an organization. I was working

85
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:25.839
at the time for an organization,
well, I had a partner with whom

86
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:33.439
Beno collaborated in our aspects. And
just being in that job. Suddenly I

87
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:39.279
get the invitation, we sign up
you know Carna Cintra so you can promote

88
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:44.959
your services, etcetera. Suddenly,
well, I have the great fortune to

89
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:49.000
meet a person who was at the
time, as Chairman of the Human Development

90
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:54.800
Commission in Canacintra and well, he
has personal issues to leave the post and

91
00:07:54.839 --> 00:08:01.600
invites me to replace him, to
replace him in that position. So that

92
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:03.279
' s how good it is.
I start working with Canas. He enters

93
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:09.240
this Human Development Commission and one day
I am invited to the presentation at a

94
00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:20.519
breakfast where the penitentiary system publicly launches
an application for the just people who are

95
00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:24.680
already close to obtaining their freedom so
that through that application. Well, then,

96
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:28.319
have different tools that allow you,
just like this topic of reintegrating into

97
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:33.600
society. And, well, at
that breakfast I hear everything you' re

98
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:37.440
doing, everything that, besides,
well, I find fantastic, everything that

99
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:43.639
the penitentiary system does in Querétaro.
It' s wonderful all the work you

100
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.799
' ve been doing. And,
I mean, all of a sudden I

101
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:50.039
said as much as i wou I
mean, the truth is, you also

102
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:52.919
realize that it' s a section
of the population where we never go back

103
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:58.879
to see, that is, they' re part of us, they'

104
00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:01.960
re part of our society, but
we didn' t turn them around and

105
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:07.240
I was one of those. Not
then, well, that' s when

106
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:11.639
I know everything I tell you they' re doing and all of a sudden,

107
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:13.320
well, I get out of breakfast. Well, before breakfast is over,

108
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.960
I get close, I meet the
then director of the social reintegration area

109
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:22.519
and well I said hey, I
think there' s some way that we,

110
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:26.679
as the Human Development Commission and the
Kanasn trate, can help and we

111
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:31.200
can add to what you are doing. Well, that' s where Luis

112
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:33.759
was. I mean, I'
ve already gone home, you know,

113
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:39.960
and at night it' s the
truth, it' s better to think

114
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:43.759
a lot and I said how it' s possible, because these people do

115
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.759
get support, but no one turns
to see them. No, I mean,

116
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.879
you realize today. Also, today
I realize even more that there are

117
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:56.799
a thousand programs, you know,
that is, to help children from orphanages

118
00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:03.399
or almost home or nursing homes for
older people for people with disabilities. But

119
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:09.919
I said and where there are programs
that support people who after ten, fifteen,

120
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:15.360
five or three years suddenly have to
go back to society, that is

121
00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:20.759
where they are. No. And
also, I am devoting myself to human

122
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.399
resources, because I also realize that
we, even as a society, were

123
00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:28.000
also very relegated to them, because, moreover, every time you hire a

124
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:33.120
person for a job and recruit him
because you ask for the letter to non

125
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:35.559
- criminal ancestors. And it was
right there that I said good and what

126
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:39.039
about all of them, I mean, how it' s going to get

127
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:45.279
to a person who tried to get
back to work and gets stuck with this

128
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:46.960
issue of the Charter of Decent Non- Workers, how it' s going

129
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:50.519
to do it no. And then
there was one you don' t know

130
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:58.159
I mean, my head was fluttering
and so I stayed for several days until

131
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:05.159
I don' t know if I
got the inspiration the l but well,

132
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:09.000
suddenly I decided to set up a
program, design a training program. I

133
00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:13.120
start to investigate, obviously, the
conditions of people in prison, not just

134
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:18.480
in Querétaro, but obviously throughout the
country. And good is that they are

135
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:24.960
born inspiration to create a program for
them. Hey, right now, listening

136
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:33.879
to you, obviously, there are
questions that arise in the air and that

137
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:37.080
it' s important to land them. One of them is assumed and this

138
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:41.120
is an assumption. My grandmother said
never suppose, son, because the expulsions

139
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:46.960
of the no. But the important
point here is that in most of the

140
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:52.440
population, in a prison, they
are supposed to be those who did,

141
00:11:52.960 --> 00:12:01.159
committed a crime and otherwise are there
for a specific reason. I say we

142
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:05.960
assume, because I also imagine that
there must be scandalous cases in which the

143
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:09.200
person may have stolen a piece of
bread and that' s why a little

144
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:13.159
gang is there. And that'
s why this is there. And how,

145
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:20.320
obviously, our judicial system is not
optimal, no, but that person

146
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:28.440
who committed a crime, how can
you detect. Evidently, he' s

147
00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:35.159
already serving his sentence, turned x. Apparently, he understood the lesson and

148
00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:39.759
how you work with this means of
containment, that is, he has some

149
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:43.600
data if any of these young people
came out and went back to crime and

150
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.600
had to return. Or if everyone
who comes out already comes back to us.

151
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:52.120
There are some metrics that you have
and practice a little bit on this

152
00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:54.919
program to know, because, obviously, what you say is true. They

153
00:12:56.039 --> 00:12:58.720
ask you for a criminal record paper
and those of us who don' t

154
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:01.480
have it all of a sudden are
not offended, no, but we feel

155
00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:05.639
something. Listen how it' s
possible for me to say what I look

156
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:11.000
like a criminal or what' s
unclear, but it' s obviously a

157
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:13.799
very important thing. It is not
a security for the company and for the

158
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:18.159
heritage of both the company and the
human resource, which are valuable. Some

159
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:22.440
metrics something like that. What tools
you provide. Tell us a little bit

160
00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:26.759
more about the program. Well,
look, this one I' m gonna

161
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:31.000
answer how I' ve answered a
lot of people this question. Yeah,

162
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:37.679
and I don' t know what
they did. Okay, I feel good.

163
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.200
I don' t feel good.
I share with them my knowledge and

164
00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:46.559
experience. Yes, with Juan,
with Roberto, with José, with Daniela,

165
00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:52.840
with whatever name you like or not, with the criminal, not with

166
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:58.120
the killer, with which robot,
with the human being, not with the

167
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:03.559
exact human being. Then, of
course, there is a lot of data.

168
00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:09.320
You can find out well through online
surveys, for example, with all

169
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:15.799
the prisons in the country, where
you can find data on the recidivism of

170
00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:20.919
these people. Yes, of course
it is information that, over time,

171
00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:26.559
they share us alone, but I
do not arrive and ask them further,

172
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:31.399
I never prepared for this as such. I don' t know if I

173
00:14:31.480 --> 00:14:37.559
' m going to understand myself or
be clear, they' re going to

174
00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:39.840
work with a group, with this
section of the population. I explain yes,

175
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:43.440
yes, I am prepared on the
subject of formation and human development.

176
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:46.679
Those are my boards. Of course, then, I' ve always seen

177
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:54.559
it this way not and I feel
with people, with people I don'

178
00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:58.600
t know if they' re going
to change or not because of what I

179
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:03.600
do, but the intention is made
clear, that we share knowledge with them

180
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:05.799
and each one decides whether or not
to apply it. But I cannot guarantee

181
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:09.360
that, through what we do,
then crime will either not exist or will

182
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:16.600
end or there will no longer be
recidivism. That doesn' t depend on

183
00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:20.039
me anymore, but I do think
sharing with them this information that, besides,

184
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:26.360
we' re usually not used to
taking even in school, nor the

185
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:30.919
confutation about the emotional intelligence that right
now is going to talk to you,

186
00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:33.120
that is, what it consists of
as such a program. But we are

187
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:39.159
giving you a tool that I hope
can serve, or I, putting that

188
00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:43.120
intention to you, you know that
they serve you. That' s why

189
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:46.600
I hope that then, because it' s magic, it happens or not.

190
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:50.559
I don' t want to talk
politics. I don' t want

191
00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:56.639
to talk about legal issues, because
it' s getting into a field where

192
00:15:56.639 --> 00:16:00.240
we' d miss the opportunity to
talk directly to you. But what I

193
00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:06.279
do mean is that, of course, this Charter is a stigma. That

194
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:10.480
Charter is nails in a coffin that
then, if these people' s doors

195
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:15.639
begin to close, they obviously have
no other way to recidivate, that is,

196
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:21.840
to go back to doing this.
And then, the truth is deplorable

197
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.840
And away from that, when you
don' t have tools, you can

198
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.919
say, when you don' t
have tools even for life, to be

199
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:33.440
able to study, to be able
to work, how you' re going

200
00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:37.799
to do it as much as you
want And more in this world that is

201
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.919
super competing, that is full of
selfishness, that is full of petulancy,

202
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:45.799
of friends. No And then,
well, we have cases of MPs,

203
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:52.399
mediocre senators who obviously didn' t, well, didn' t even run

204
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:56.799
the primary. I guess here the
important point is this how they embrace this

205
00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:02.600
program and how you distinguish your change. You see this subject of interest.

206
00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:07.039
You see this topic and I imagine
it was also first, how you distinguish

207
00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:11.920
the changes and, second, also
ask yourself. I imagine you' re

208
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:17.319
going to take on a positive satisfaction
and experiences, also incredible of the human

209
00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:21.559
being. No, yeah, no, no, you don' t know

210
00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:26.279
what we do. Look. I' m going to tell you how we

211
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.240
' ve measured the impact of what
we' re doing today, because,

212
00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:36.319
besides, let me tell you that
this is a program that we started at

213
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:38.559
two thousand twenty- two OK and
well, because it was taken into account,

214
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:42.119
so not between tests and error,
so to speak a little, but

215
00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:45.160
we also realized. We made certain
tools available to them, but along the

216
00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:51.720
way we realized that they had other
needs. And I' m going to

217
00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:56.519
give you an example, that is, our tayer program is about emotional intelligence,

218
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:03.240
neurolinguistic programming. We talk about family
systems with them, we talk about

219
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:08.400
the re- signification of values,
of strengthening, values, that is,

220
00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:12.960
it is all this edification. As
a human being you know then along the

221
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:18.440
way we realized that suddenly we met
people where we said it is important to

222
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:22.920
work with them tolerance to frustration,
for example. So we integrated that photography

223
00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:30.720
tolerance workshop. We have a workshop
called a life plan. So, well,

224
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:37.160
we have several tools right there to
help you in that sense. What

225
00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:41.400
happened to our program was aimed at
those people who were close to obtaining their

226
00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:47.400
freedom in the next four six months
or so, that is to say already

227
00:18:47.839 --> 00:18:51.480
in that period, because our program
lasts more than three months of training,

228
00:18:52.200 --> 00:19:00.240
or with young people is more,
but with adults. So and adult women.

229
00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:04.839
Well, the program is a little
shorter. So it' s three

230
00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:08.759
months every Saturday we go with them. We trained them for four hours of

231
00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:12.519
training. In total, it'
s 36 hours, but for teenagers we

232
00:19:12.599 --> 00:19:18.319
have a program of seventy- two
hours. That' s where we did

233
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:21.319
it I' m telling you,
for example, that modification. So what

234
00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:27.799
was going on with our group,
it was for nearby people to get their

235
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:33.240
freedom after the first three months.
What happened, Luis? Suddenly people came

236
00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:37.519
and told us to listen, I' m not going out yet, I

237
00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:41.880
mean I' m going out still
in four years or three years, but

238
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:45.880
my cella partner is taking this training
and already talked to me and I want

239
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:49.519
to take it. Okay, or
I' ve seen it work out for

240
00:19:49.519 --> 00:19:53.319
you. And then there came another
one that said hey. I' m

241
00:19:53.359 --> 00:19:59.440
in the carpentry workshop with my colleagues
and they' re taking the workshop too

242
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:03.039
and I want to take it.
That' s how we were measuring the

243
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:08.240
impact we were having with this training. That' s what happened. So

244
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:14.160
I can tell you that then we
realized that it was something that was working,

245
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:17.839
that people were moving something because besides, among them they already shared it.

246
00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:22.319
You know. Then we told them
no matter what you could come here

247
00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:26.160
and be as many times as you
need it. And we had the case

248
00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:30.400
of two people or three people more
or less who finished the workshop and after

249
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:36.039
three months they returned with us.
Okay, as you hear, you already

250
00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:38.559
took it, no yes, but
I want to keep taking it, because

251
00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:44.039
I' m always finding new things
or learning it, so good. This

252
00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:48.160
is the way we were or have
been measuring, for example, because the

253
00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:56.319
impact this training is having. We
worked only with men and women. First

254
00:20:56.480 --> 00:21:02.440
we worked with the Varonil Prison in
Querer for a year and our second year

255
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:07.599
we were already working in San Juan
del Río Jalpan and with the women,

256
00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:11.599
that is, we were already attending
the four prisons. Suddenly, at a

257
00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:18.119
meeting, the director of the juvenile
correctional facility, who was a group that

258
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:22.759
we were not attending to, approached
us and told us what they are doing.

259
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:30.240
I want you to come work with
the chaus and we said well,

260
00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:36.240
because we don' t have the
resources. True we can talk about that

261
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:40.400
part, but well, he told
us. I want you to know what

262
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:45.039
we' re doing here with teenagers. We also met everything they do,

263
00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:49.400
all the tools they provide and made
some adjustments to start working with teenagers.

264
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:56.400
So since September last year we'
ve been working with that group as well.

265
00:21:56.039 --> 00:22:02.079
So many congratulations. What must go
of young people, young people have

266
00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:07.400
a totally, radically different synergy and
more of the young people of now platicans.

267
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:14.359
How come, in one other way, I tell them that I have

268
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:18.000
a lot of questions stuck. The
first of them that I want to make

269
00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:22.480
you is really whose fault it is
that these young people are there, whose

270
00:22:22.519 --> 00:22:26.160
fault is that those adults, that
those men and that those women are there?

271
00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:33.160
From society, from the family,
from companies. It is a shared

272
00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:38.519
social responsibility and talking about culpability is
also very subjective, no, but that

273
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:47.119
is to say, there must be
such triggers for someone to commit some crime.

274
00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:52.119
And, obviously, it' s
a set of things, but I

275
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:56.799
' d like to hear it from
your own lips to know if this is

276
00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:00.960
the question that' s on the
way. There' s some quicker,

277
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:04.759
closer solution. There will be some
ingredient that, if we put it or

278
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:11.559
remove it, helps adults, young
people to sling less. It' s

279
00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:15.240
just that it' s very difficult
to answer because responsibility, because I could

280
00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:18.279
say it' s everyone' s. Not what I can tell you that

281
00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:22.640
we have learned or well we have
understood that, for example, in the

282
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:27.200
case of adolescents, before being victimizers, they were victims of the vast majority

283
00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:33.799
of events, then victims of the
family, victims of society, victims of

284
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:38.039
friends, victims of the lack of
opportunities. I mean, I can'

285
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:42.039
t tell you that justifies it,
because I told my friend. I don

286
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:45.759
' t justify the fact that I
say that I don' t care about

287
00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:48.000
the crime they committed and that,
that' s why I work with them.

288
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:52.839
It doesn' t mean that I
justify what they did for more.

289
00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:57.119
However, understanding how this context,
as you ask me, I could tell

290
00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:02.759
you that in my experience, since
before the great majority of them were victims,

291
00:24:02.880 --> 00:24:07.079
especially when we talked with them suddenly
we met adults who have repeated their

292
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:11.880
crimes many times, that is,
we met a man who had repeated his

293
00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:15.119
crimes fifteen times, that is,
had already stepped on the prison fifteen times.

294
00:24:17.599 --> 00:24:19.240
I think there too, well,
it' s already his responsibility,

295
00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:23.519
I mean, you don' t
want to do things differently. Then in

296
00:24:23.559 --> 00:24:27.200
society you can put the resources of
a company, it can open the doors,

297
00:24:27.599 --> 00:24:33.680
but you have already decided that your
life has already been like this.

298
00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:34.559
I don' t know if I
mean that. Yes, it was your

299
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:37.640
choice. Yeah, yeah, totally, but you know what. And here

300
00:24:37.680 --> 00:24:41.720
I want to interrupt you. I
want to invite everyone who' s watching

301
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:45.079
us to listen to us. I
want to invite you to Brinda. I

302
00:24:45.160 --> 00:24:48.519
don' t know if you'
ve already seen it, it must be

303
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:51.400
on YouTube. I' m going
to get it and if I don'

304
00:24:51.920 --> 00:24:56.119
t put it in the link below
the interview I have with a prison brinda.

305
00:24:56.920 --> 00:25:06.920
It says the fifteen most dangerous prisons
in the world and appears in number

306
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:12.519
fifteen. One thing like that,
a prison in Norway, where there are

307
00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:18.000
no prison doors, that is,
there are no cells, there are no

308
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:25.559
doors. I think there are fifty
prisoners, no, and I think there

309
00:25:25.559 --> 00:25:30.039
are five guards, so that the
dog comes out, they don' t

310
00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:34.039
have doors. Why, because they
attack a lot from culture since they are

311
00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:38.480
born, and it is a culture
that permeates in all aspects. Of course,

312
00:25:38.880 --> 00:25:44.319
we are talking to a Parisian like
Norway, who also has a different

313
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:47.720
culture, a different way of thinking, and so on. But there must

314
00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:51.680
be some key out there where we
haven' t given him yet, like

315
00:25:51.799 --> 00:25:56.240
Mexico. No, the rich are
richer, the poor are poorer, and

316
00:25:56.240 --> 00:26:03.160
I think that' s where many
problems go. I want to ask you

317
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:07.960
about your medals, those satisfactions that
work on what you do, because you

318
00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:11.799
see the passion, you see the
dedication. But talk to us, this

319
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:17.400
satisfaction you' ve found some person
outside They' ve gone to thank you

320
00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:18.759
in another way. Suddenly, the
gicyshs who are already working, are already

321
00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:25.519
producing, and their family reunited something. So, look, I' m

322
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:29.599
gonna tell you the story that I' m not gonna reveal his name,

323
00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:32.920
but, well, he came out. For example, he is an industrial

324
00:26:32.920 --> 00:26:37.160
engineer, or with him it was
a great experience for me. Also,

325
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:41.519
I mean, they have also contributed
me as you have no idea, that

326
00:26:41.519 --> 00:26:45.680
is, very, very much,
and, well, this is the story

327
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:52.799
of a boy industrial engineer, thirty- two years or so thirty- three

328
00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:59.680
years, that one day leaving work, he came very tired, very stressed,

329
00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:06.359
he was driving, he comes fighting
with the driver next door and he

330
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:10.759
loses, that is, he loses
his temper. He' s getting his

331
00:27:10.839 --> 00:27:14.599
car blown up and this car goes
to the ravine and one of the two

332
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:18.279
people who came in the car dies. So, well, that' s

333
00:27:18.359 --> 00:27:22.759
why then he goes to prison for
five years. When I met him,

334
00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:30.480
at first he was in the workshops
and only observed not quiet, he said

335
00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:34.519
nothing like me. I think about
a month or so from what we were

336
00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:40.920
already training him, he comes up
with me and he tells me I hope

337
00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:44.119
someday when I' m out that
it' s too soon that I'

338
00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:45.640
m going out, I mean,
I' m six months away. I

339
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:51.799
' m gonna sit down and talk
to you,' cause I think this

340
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:53.799
thing you guys are doing is very
important. I mean, it' s

341
00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:59.200
really very significant. And, well, obviously he knew a lot of people

342
00:27:59.240 --> 00:28:02.039
they lived with. There is next
door and he said that besides, I

343
00:28:02.119 --> 00:28:06.960
realize how people who have taken training
with me also have a different attitude are

344
00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:14.880
seeing different things. And, well, he gets out of prison and finds

345
00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:18.279
himself right on this subject that because
of the non- criminal antecedent letter,

346
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:23.799
you can' t re- contract
to work in an organization already to continue

347
00:28:23.839 --> 00:28:30.119
exercising your profession as an industrial engineer. And he' s just looking for

348
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:36.039
me He' s looking for me
when he comes out and says,"

349
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:36.960
Well, I' m out,
I' m going to start looking for

350
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:41.400
a job" But, well,
I don' t think I' ll

351
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:44.440
be able to go back to what
I was doing. The only thing I

352
00:28:44.519 --> 00:28:47.839
want to share with you is that
no one. The only thing that'

353
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:51.480
s one of the things I learned
is that no one in this life,

354
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:53.440
no one is who we are,
we' re exempt from stepping on the

355
00:28:53.440 --> 00:28:59.759
peso. Nobody. For me,
that was something that even I didn'

356
00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:02.960
t have. Or I don'
t know if I explain, Luis,

357
00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:07.960
you don' t even think about
it, he explained to me, I

358
00:29:07.000 --> 00:29:10.920
mean, you take it for granted
that you' re never gonna step on

359
00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:11.519
that place, because I' m
not a criminal. I mean, I

360
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:15.920
don' t steal, I don' t hurt, I don' t

361
00:29:15.920 --> 00:29:21.519
kill, I' m not a
murderer, no, but he, in

362
00:29:21.559 --> 00:29:25.440
that situation he faced and the bad
decision he made, led him to be

363
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:27.440
in prison for five years. Time
goes on. I keep in touch with

364
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:30.720
him and one day he tells me
well what you think I haven' t

365
00:29:30.759 --> 00:29:34.920
definitely found in my area. And
now I have to work at the centre

366
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:40.880
of reason, because no one gives
me clear work. Then what I saw

367
00:29:40.960 --> 00:29:47.920
in him was also a lot of
frustration. Luis you know why I must

368
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:52.839
be made for more and not because
obviously, I denigrate no one' s

369
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:57.920
work. Absolutely. He said good. I can' t win what I

370
00:29:57.960 --> 00:30:03.039
' m used to, but it' s more. If for a professional

371
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:07.400
person who hasn' t stepped on
the prison it was a terrible frustration not

372
00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:12.000
finding the job. Now imagine a
person limited in that capacity. It must

373
00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:15.799
be awful. Of course and besides, what he was saying to me is

374
00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:19.559
now I understand, because many times, that is, many people return to

375
00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:23.839
prison because they already spoke to their
friend clearly to ask him to shake hands

376
00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:29.799
with them and he referred him again
to another criminal. So it' s

377
00:30:29.799 --> 00:30:33.000
a mean, it becomes a virtuous
circle. I' m what it'

378
00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:37.680
s like to call. Then I
get out of there, but I don

379
00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:37.839
' t get out. I don' t know if you see him.

380
00:30:38.240 --> 00:30:44.960
Yeah, I' m totally out, but I do follow you in songs

381
00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:48.200
really, I mean, I can
move, but I' m still jailed

382
00:30:48.279 --> 00:30:52.240
for why, because of the stigma
I have now. Obviously, this is

383
00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:57.839
a regrettable, deplorable case, because, because one person was at stake how

384
00:30:57.920 --> 00:31:03.200
important the decisins are. What you
just said three minutes of courage can lead

385
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:12.000
you to a situation of consequences that
nobody wants. Now I would love to

386
00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:18.279
know in this case how we can
help as a society, how we can

387
00:31:18.359 --> 00:31:21.319
help, if you say hear,
because I got hooked on this. I

388
00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:25.200
want to help. I have to
tell you that at some point in my

389
00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:30.240
life, when I was younger,
I had a hair like your leather.

390
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.160
I don' t change for the
fence like that, but I' m

391
00:31:33.240 --> 00:31:41.119
already a model then, but I' ve also been going with young people

392
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:47.400
there in Mexico City, to one
of the San Fernando centers and what experience.

393
00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:52.319
Suddenly they told me things that I
always kept with a line of believing

394
00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:56.359
or not believing the story, because, obviously, because many stories are invented

395
00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:01.720
and are with data that they are
not. But suddenly they told me some

396
00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:05.759
stories and said I can' t
believe it. No, and on some

397
00:32:05.839 --> 00:32:09.039
occasion I have to tell you that
I play the guitar and then I took

398
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:15.039
to the guitar because I remember that
I was going with an evangelisation group and

399
00:32:15.200 --> 00:32:20.519
where you put me to a group
I don' t close the door with

400
00:32:20.559 --> 00:32:23.319
ten interns, I with the guitar, you don' t know what and

401
00:32:23.720 --> 00:32:29.279
I played and nobody peeled me and
they made me faces until I left the

402
00:32:29.599 --> 00:32:30.720
guitar and I started talking to him
already as they talk to each other.

403
00:32:30.960 --> 00:32:37.079
And it was a cathartic experience for
me because I said how it is possible

404
00:32:37.079 --> 00:32:42.160
that these boys, in the conditions
in which they are, with what they

405
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:46.200
eat, with what little they recreate
with it is to live in the same

406
00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:52.319
space in deplorable conditions. Suddenly they
have more joy than one who is outside,

407
00:32:52.119 --> 00:32:57.599
They have more illusions than one who
has everyone at their feet and that

408
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:01.680
we still have the usability of fighting
and arguing and getting into broncas that do

409
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:06.720
not correspond to us or in risks
that do not correspond to us. Yeah,

410
00:33:06.759 --> 00:33:08.200
well, look, I mean,
I' ve never been in that

411
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:13.559
situation, but I can talk to
you through their eyes, that is,

412
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:16.480
through what they tell me, that
is, a lot of people get there

413
00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:22.880
because of the circumstance that if there
are many they lose children family friends they

414
00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:28.599
lose everything. So, for many
it' s like I' m gonna

415
00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:30.799
be here for ten years, that
is, how I' m gonna be

416
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:34.000
having a hard time. The truth
is that many even get to have like

417
00:33:34.039 --> 00:33:37.599
that conscience others who are angry with
life and then you realize that all the

418
00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:42.720
time they are fighting with the guard
with whom the food serves them. I

419
00:33:42.759 --> 00:33:47.599
mean, it' s a constant
fight, it' s a constant anger,

420
00:33:49.079 --> 00:33:52.480
a constant frustration with themselves with their
day to day, but others who

421
00:33:52.519 --> 00:33:55.759
take it in a very different way. Many learn many things in there that

422
00:33:55.839 --> 00:34:00.880
teach others, that is, it' s a way of me I think

423
00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:02.799
how we see it is that even
if we' re here, luis,

424
00:34:04.559 --> 00:34:08.920
that is, it' s that
even though we' re good, sometimes

425
00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:09.440
we' re even fighting the world
and there are those who say good already.

426
00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:14.679
This is my day today and today
we saw it already, then what

427
00:34:14.679 --> 00:34:16.400
happens tomorrow doesn' t matter.
I mean, I' m living this

428
00:34:16.440 --> 00:34:20.960
today and I enjoy it today.
That is also part of a philosophy that

429
00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:28.440
many of them have inside. The
conditions of each prison, the conditions in

430
00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:31.519
which they are in wantatar, are
now changing greatly. I think it makes

431
00:34:31.639 --> 00:34:37.239
them stay a little better, not
because I have dedicated myself, since from

432
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:42.039
this not to investigate much, and
there are other penitentiaries where in a cell

433
00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:46.119
there are fifteen twenty. How you' re not gonna be mad at that

434
00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:51.679
every day, in case a bad
her, that is, we' d

435
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:54.440
all get bad even if we weren' t in prisons like we were being

436
00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:57.159
put in a room and we had
to live there twenty- five people.

437
00:34:57.519 --> 00:35:00.559
Of course you' re going to
be wrong in the case I want to.

438
00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:04.760
Well, fortunately, your conditions are
different. It wouldn' t be

439
00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:07.199
worth much to recognize. That'
s why I was telling you from the

440
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:12.280
beginning the work that the prison does
and that the government does, just with

441
00:35:12.400 --> 00:35:15.519
many other tools that they give people. In the case of women, a

442
00:35:15.599 --> 00:35:20.360
little while ago you said well,
a decision that can change your life forever

443
00:35:21.039 --> 00:35:24.280
with those three minutes of anger and
frustration. And good in the case of

444
00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:30.280
women, because many of them get
to prison as a result of the couple.

445
00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:34.639
Yeah, a lot of them don' t. That' s another

446
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:38.639
topic. Then just a little while
ago, back to your original question about

447
00:35:38.639 --> 00:35:43.159
who' s to blame, because
I wouldn' t know how to tell

448
00:35:43.159 --> 00:35:44.159
you, I don' t know
if it' s your decisions. I

449
00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:45.000
don' t know if it'
s the environment. I don' t

450
00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:47.679
even know your family. What I
can tell you is, maybe it'

451
00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:52.400
s a sum of all of me
or the opportunity. There are programs of

452
00:35:52.400 --> 00:36:00.119
these alerts at the airport, which
you have surely seen when they transport certain

453
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:04.920
substances and obviously hed. Yes,
it' s very cannony, because women

454
00:36:05.039 --> 00:36:07.320
seeing opportunity or men and women,
but what I mean is that women are

455
00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:15.159
deceived. No and then, obviously, it' s a coin that I

456
00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:17.840
saw the other day a case of
a woman who had crossed. I don

457
00:36:17.920 --> 00:36:22.599
' t know for telling you any
number, thirty times no, an impressive

458
00:36:22.679 --> 00:36:27.360
number of tables and they stuffed it
in thirty- one, I mean,

459
00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:30.239
always, there' s always that
risk that it can be the first and

460
00:36:30.320 --> 00:36:31.440
there are times that it' s
the first and that' s how you

461
00:36:31.440 --> 00:36:36.360
ended up going. The thing is, people like that part of fast money,

462
00:36:36.719 --> 00:36:43.159
of comfortable money, of easy money
that' s money. I think

463
00:36:43.239 --> 00:36:47.960
it' s more difficult than I
can assure you that those people who stole

464
00:36:49.039 --> 00:36:54.039
and are there today in this center, because I think a regret must come

465
00:36:54.119 --> 00:36:58.639
to them, because that money went
very dear to them. Not good.

466
00:36:58.679 --> 00:37:00.559
There' s in the case of
a person who told me and said well,

467
00:37:01.119 --> 00:37:07.079
I did a millionaire fraud this and
well, I knew that I was

468
00:37:07.079 --> 00:37:09.400
going. I was going to be
here for twenty- five years in prison,

469
00:37:09.719 --> 00:37:13.679
but my family is fine. Then
I don' t know what I

470
00:37:13.679 --> 00:37:17.880
mean. That' s why I
don' t like how to make a

471
00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:22.039
trial or go much deeper into it, because I' ve started thinking about

472
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:25.440
what would happen if I had been
in his or her situation. I don

473
00:37:25.440 --> 00:37:29.519
' t know if I would have
taken it or not. It' s

474
00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:35.480
changed your life, changed your perspective
on your everyday life a lot. Very

475
00:37:35.559 --> 00:37:38.039
much because look at a story that
also struck me very much. It was

476
00:37:38.119 --> 00:37:43.840
that of a woman who is in
prison for killing her partner and she told

477
00:37:43.920 --> 00:37:47.400
me I did not regret killing him, because I preferred to kill him before

478
00:37:47.440 --> 00:37:53.639
he killed my children. So that' s when you say I mean,

479
00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:57.800
I can' t judge her,
because I don' t know if it

480
00:37:57.800 --> 00:38:00.599
' s r would have done the
same thing. And that' s when

481
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:04.840
they always ask me that question.
It' s hard for me to answer,

482
00:38:05.280 --> 00:38:08.719
because the only thing I' ve
seen and lived with them is every

483
00:38:08.800 --> 00:38:12.480
time they share with me the reason
they' re there. I always think

484
00:38:12.559 --> 00:38:16.079
I would have done it and I
know I have my values super grounded.

485
00:38:16.360 --> 00:38:20.840
No, yeah, yeah. I
have had the opportunity to study and have

486
00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:24.639
the opportunity to continue learning and meeting
people, to build up in many ways,

487
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:30.280
but if I were her, I
don' t know if all that

488
00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:32.480
would be worth defending my children'
s life, your spiritual life. How

489
00:38:32.519 --> 00:38:37.760
it has changed, because, obviously, from entering there must be everything that,

490
00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:42.880
obviously, you get used to processes
and you know how to dress and

491
00:38:42.960 --> 00:38:45.800
you know what to wear, what
not to wear, etcetera. And at

492
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:49.280
the end of the road, you
do it a little bit more automatically.

493
00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:54.239
But I imagine that also in a
spiritual subject has been touched and it is

494
00:38:54.320 --> 00:38:59.119
already in another shared way, because
suddenly, to see also the despair,

495
00:38:59.880 --> 00:39:06.280
the loneliness, the frustration, the
tenor, the abandonment and also the topic

496
00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:09.039
of leaving. Not to say some, but they want to be inside,

497
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:13.239
because inside at least they have food, but outside they won' t have

498
00:39:13.239 --> 00:39:16.119
food. So, yes, it' s a fear of how this spiritual

499
00:39:16.199 --> 00:39:21.480
change has been for you Oh,
I wouldn' t know how to put

500
00:39:21.480 --> 00:39:22.599
it in which words you laugh at
to see maybe I' m leaving anyway

501
00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:28.679
I explain myself with this. Yeah, when I first arrived after I introduced

502
00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:31.960
the program and it was my first
training course, I parked and suddenly said

503
00:39:32.000 --> 00:39:42.559
I' m doing here at the
time. I finished this and all I

504
00:39:42.639 --> 00:39:47.840
did was say God, you just
give me the words, that is,

505
00:39:47.920 --> 00:39:52.039
put my mouth on the words they
need to hear and for what you brought

506
00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:57.440
me here. That' s the
best way, the most spiritual thing I

507
00:39:57.519 --> 00:40:01.960
can tell you that it has changed
me to understand that always one path leads

508
00:40:02.000 --> 00:40:07.159
you to another, always life leads
you to another, to something else and

509
00:40:07.239 --> 00:40:10.599
sometimes we don' t understand why. Why don' t we always be

510
00:40:10.599 --> 00:40:15.159
that why, because over there we' re angry at that situation. But

511
00:40:15.239 --> 00:40:17.599
time goes by and you realize that' s why they start having an answer.

512
00:40:19.960 --> 00:40:22.400
And I believe that in the spiritual
part it has been as it is.

513
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:25.239
I put myself in the hands of
God, that is, God is

514
00:40:25.280 --> 00:40:30.119
with me, he uses me as
a tool to reach them, that is,

515
00:40:30.159 --> 00:40:34.559
I am only a channel And that
is how I see it, because

516
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:39.159
besides, I can take the course
the same course fifteen twenty, twenty times?

517
00:40:39.280 --> 00:40:45.360
Fifteen or twenty times and I always
say different things that do happen to

518
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:51.800
me, but I always go out
like with things that I say where I

519
00:40:51.840 --> 00:40:53.320
get this, and not because I
get it out of my sleeve, but

520
00:40:53.320 --> 00:40:59.360
I just think they were things they
needed, they needed to hear from me

521
00:40:59.440 --> 00:41:04.159
then. That' s the most
spiritual part I can tell you now I

522
00:41:04.239 --> 00:41:07.960
get out of there and leave that
there too I see it in a spiritual

523
00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:15.440
way. Why because I come back
to my life ok you' ve prayed

524
00:41:15.440 --> 00:41:17.960
for them, you' ve prayed
for them. Not really, that is,

525
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:22.480
I am only in the hands of
God. I believe that I would

526
00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:29.760
not need to pray for them,
but a prayer made action. I don

527
00:41:29.800 --> 00:41:35.440
' t think this is very different. You' re praying accidents and see

528
00:41:35.480 --> 00:41:38.719
that there' s one thing right
now I just looked for so I wouldn

529
00:41:38.719 --> 00:41:44.000
' t make a mistake. But
just in the Bible, those parks that

530
00:41:44.039 --> 00:41:50.480
we are Christocentric, Catholic or Christian, say blessed of my father because I

531
00:41:50.559 --> 00:41:52.480
was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me

532
00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:54.920
drink, I was a stranger and
you picked me up, I was naked,

533
00:41:54.920 --> 00:41:59.880
etcetera. I was in jail and
you came to visit me. That

534
00:42:00.639 --> 00:42:06.679
also speaks of a charity, of
a feeling, of detachment on the part.

535
00:42:06.800 --> 00:42:08.360
Yours to say is okay, my
life, it' s okay.

536
00:42:08.440 --> 00:42:15.199
What I' m doing, you
were talking to us, you were in

537
00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:16.960
an organization and you left that.
For this reason not, and evidently you

538
00:42:17.039 --> 00:42:23.719
are a bearer of peace, of
bliss. You are a carrier of a

539
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:29.440
granite connection to the outside world,
and that must also be very enriching and

540
00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:34.480
very valuable to them. And I
think, by name, I know that

541
00:42:34.519 --> 00:42:37.920
many times we don' t thank
you as a society, but I do

542
00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:42.559
want to tell you in the name
of society, thank you for that effort,

543
00:42:43.199 --> 00:42:46.480
for that dedication, for that work, because to the least seen and

544
00:42:46.519 --> 00:42:52.800
I can assure you that if either
of us found out that the opposite one

545
00:42:52.880 --> 00:42:55.880
was in a center like this we
would even walk away for our own safety.

546
00:42:57.000 --> 00:43:00.440
However, this effort you' re
making is very commendable and, really

547
00:43:00.440 --> 00:43:06.760
thank you for all the dedication as
a society. Today, I recognize it

548
00:43:06.880 --> 00:43:08.920
as excellent work. Thank you,
Luis Mira. I' m actually gonna

549
00:43:09.000 --> 00:43:15.039
tell you, I mean, actually, for a year. Well we did

550
00:43:15.119 --> 00:43:20.360
it for free because besides, not
only do I also want to take advantage

551
00:43:21.000 --> 00:43:23.960
of the space to recognize the work
of all the people who accompany me in

552
00:43:23.960 --> 00:43:34.119
this process. I also invited human
development professionals to join me in this cause,

553
00:43:34.639 --> 00:43:38.320
to share their experience and learning.
I mean, well, everyone knows

554
00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:46.039
more about them. Then every topic
we give is taught by specialists. I

555
00:43:46.119 --> 00:43:52.800
told them the other day that if
I wanted to take that training that they

556
00:43:52.840 --> 00:44:00.840
receive outside, it would cost me
a wool. Of course you tell me

557
00:44:00.920 --> 00:44:06.599
that the people who collaborate with me
are professionals, super professionals. That is,

558
00:44:07.559 --> 00:44:09.800
the person who gives us, for
example, the emotional intelligence workshop is

559
00:44:09.920 --> 00:44:17.000
certified, because I do not know
how many institutions in this topic of emotional

560
00:44:17.079 --> 00:44:22.079
intelligence, that of assertive communication,
for example, that gives us that assertive

561
00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:24.480
communication workshop. She is a young
woman who also has a master' s

562
00:44:24.599 --> 00:44:29.199
degree in Spain, who also worked
with young people in prisons in Spain.

563
00:44:29.480 --> 00:44:35.559
I mean, it' s not
an impromptu subject, nothing mattered. It

564
00:44:35.599 --> 00:44:37.400
' s not like I' m
holding on to my guy and I'

565
00:44:37.480 --> 00:44:39.880
m telling him, hey, help
me give this training. We take the

566
00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:45.800
time to choose and select very carefully, because in addition, there is a

567
00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:51.960
person who collaborates very closely with me, who is Gerardo. And Gerardo has

568
00:44:52.280 --> 00:44:55.639
also put all his heart and enthusiasm
into this project. He believed in what

569
00:44:55.679 --> 00:45:01.800
I was doing and wanted to join
me more frequently. Let' s say

570
00:45:01.840 --> 00:45:05.800
because he helps me plan a lot
of things and design a lot of things.

571
00:45:06.679 --> 00:45:10.880
But, I mean, we'
re all very careful who we invite,

572
00:45:12.079 --> 00:45:16.280
who we choose, because we don' t want to do this as

573
00:45:16.280 --> 00:45:19.840
ay Mira. Recognize what we do. I' m not doing it,

574
00:45:20.039 --> 00:45:22.320
we' re doing it and we' re doing it very well, really,

575
00:45:23.559 --> 00:45:29.199
very well, because, besides a
program like ours, there' s

576
00:45:29.199 --> 00:45:31.920
no other prison in Mexico, like
who I love, like what we'

577
00:45:32.000 --> 00:45:36.239
re doing in Queretaro, nobody has
a program like us, that of teenagers.

578
00:45:36.840 --> 00:45:42.719
In addition to receiving our training.
Luis, they are assigned a mentor

579
00:45:43.480 --> 00:45:49.920
ok and the sponsor is also a
person of society who voluntarily meets with them

580
00:45:49.920 --> 00:45:54.599
once a month. He' s
not a psychologist. He' s a

581
00:45:54.599 --> 00:46:00.880
mentor. It' s someone who
gives them a guide because you' re

582
00:46:00.039 --> 00:46:02.960
going through it can help you how
this tool can serve you. Take this

583
00:46:04.119 --> 00:46:07.840
book. He' s not a
psychologist. They already receive that professional tension,

584
00:46:08.679 --> 00:46:16.000
but we do also invite people in
society who are also very committed to

585
00:46:16.039 --> 00:46:22.000
making a significant change with them.
Then I also have to admit that these

586
00:46:22.079 --> 00:46:28.440
people believed in me, that they
believed in my project and that everything they

587
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:32.199
are doing also in this work with
teenagers, is making a contribution, that

588
00:46:32.280 --> 00:46:37.159
is to say it is a contribution, It is a granite of sand that

589
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:40.440
they are making for this transformation.
Working with young people has been even more

590
00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:45.119
important because from them, yes,
we can begin to stop the recidivism,

591
00:46:45.320 --> 00:46:51.639
we can make them more aware that, since they can change their lives,

592
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:55.639
in addition to all that the system
of the integration center for adolescents in the

593
00:46:55.679 --> 00:47:01.119
State also gives them. So,
well, nothing else. I want to

594
00:47:01.119 --> 00:47:05.360
take the medal. I mean,
the truth is, I recognize the work

595
00:47:05.760 --> 00:47:12.320
of all trainers, all mentors.
For example, I have a person who

596
00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:15.760
is a manager of Va Norte.
I' m not gonna reveal his name,

597
00:47:15.760 --> 00:47:20.159
either. Yeah,' cause,
well, I don' t know

598
00:47:20.400 --> 00:47:24.679
if he wants to, but he, for example, meets two kids there

599
00:47:24.719 --> 00:47:28.840
at the prison twice a month,
who says once a month. Because he

600
00:47:28.840 --> 00:47:35.880
also has a life story of indigenous
parents, who went ahead, who decided

601
00:47:35.880 --> 00:47:39.159
to pursue a career, who was
the first in his family to pursue a

602
00:47:39.199 --> 00:47:46.280
university career. Imagine how meaningful it
is for these kids to meet someone like

603
00:47:46.920 --> 00:47:52.719
that once a month and then he
can help them in their transformation process.

604
00:47:53.079 --> 00:48:00.000
I have communicators, I have directors
of insurance companies, I have teachers of

605
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:04.840
him. The TEC of Monterrey,
I mean, could take me all day.

606
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:14.800
Appreciating, but this accompaniment for the
adolescentres we thought was essential to achieve,

607
00:48:15.519 --> 00:48:20.320
therefore, the Christ we are looking
for. The compelling question is how

608
00:48:20.800 --> 00:48:23.960
we help, what we can do. I can' t imagine that already

609
00:48:23.960 --> 00:48:29.000
several people said listen to me I
like I can help. Maybe I'

610
00:48:29.079 --> 00:48:31.679
m not in Queretaro, but I' m in another city or I'

611
00:48:31.760 --> 00:48:37.559
m in another country, but I
would like to start helping how people who

612
00:48:37.599 --> 00:48:42.760
see us and listen to us put
their bit of sand that, obviously,

613
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:49.079
there is a great need and as
you said a moment ago, which is

614
00:48:49.079 --> 00:48:54.840
truly shocking, no one is exempt
from being as old as you are today

615
00:48:54.960 --> 00:49:02.760
may be that out of negligence,
a foolishness, an absurdity, a minute

616
00:49:02.920 --> 00:49:09.280
of courage, something that happened.
Let us have this chaotic experience, but

617
00:49:09.400 --> 00:49:14.960
I would love to know how we
can help, how we can get closer

618
00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:16.840
to young people, to adults,
to women, to men, how we

619
00:49:16.840 --> 00:49:22.559
can do it, because see if
suddenly they say hear brenda. I master

620
00:49:22.639 --> 00:49:27.920
this subject. I am an expert
on this topic and I think I could

621
00:49:28.000 --> 00:49:34.880
share with them this tool all is
good to come, I mean, we

622
00:49:34.920 --> 00:49:39.320
would also love to add more professionals
to this topic, because in addition,

623
00:49:39.639 --> 00:49:44.719
we are looking to be able to
expand to other prisons and take the work

624
00:49:44.800 --> 00:49:45.440
we are doing in Querétaro, taking
it also to other states. Then there

625
00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:49.360
' s gonna be a time where
we' re gonna need a lot of

626
00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:52.599
hands, Luis. So you could
contact me for me to know that there

627
00:49:52.719 --> 00:49:58.199
is such a will and, well, later on you can count on your

628
00:49:58.239 --> 00:50:01.800
support. Not suddenly I want to
mentor some of the students, because some

629
00:50:01.880 --> 00:50:06.760
of the mentors are not in Queretaro, they are in Mexico City and they

630
00:50:06.920 --> 00:50:13.519
connect with them viazu and so they
have the session with the chats See what

631
00:50:13.639 --> 00:50:17.199
father, it doesn' t matter, they already have access to technology and

632
00:50:17.280 --> 00:50:22.239
otherwise they can have these. Ah, well, look, it' s

633
00:50:22.239 --> 00:50:25.599
wonderful, because then, if you
don' t live in Queretaro or don

634
00:50:25.599 --> 00:50:27.679
' t live in Mexico, you
live in some other country. If you

635
00:50:27.719 --> 00:50:30.960
want to support well come closer to
Bred Manzano. Remember us for people are

636
00:50:30.960 --> 00:50:37.199
appearing there on screen their social networks. But remind us how we can locate

637
00:50:37.239 --> 00:50:39.599
you on Instagram and Linkedin. Please, in both networks like Brenda Manzano,

638
00:50:40.159 --> 00:50:45.719
as it is aha and there they
can us, because they can contact me

639
00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:47.760
and the way in which they can
be added. I don' t have,

640
00:50:47.840 --> 00:50:52.039
for example, now, this year, let me just do this horn.

641
00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:55.039
Please, not what I want.
For example, this year with teenagers

642
00:50:55.159 --> 00:51:01.679
we are going to give them a
barbershop and hairdresser. Yes, I can

643
00:51:01.679 --> 00:51:08.320
also point out yes clearly so that
they can learn this trade and also,

644
00:51:08.719 --> 00:51:14.280
when they get out, they can
get to work right away. Not on

645
00:51:14.039 --> 00:51:17.440
that. And well, this is
going to be with the support of a

646
00:51:17.480 --> 00:51:22.480
school in Mexico City as well.
In addition, they are two young people

647
00:51:22.480 --> 00:51:29.239
who created an amazing barber and hairdresser
school called Ja lu barber and they joined

648
00:51:29.239 --> 00:51:31.920
us in this project to come from
Mexico City to train and certify them.

649
00:51:35.440 --> 00:51:40.639
These kids, in addition, came
out in shart Tang. But besides,

650
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:44.519
that' s me, when I
approached them and said hey, I need

651
00:51:44.559 --> 00:51:49.199
support. I would love for the
kids to be able to learn this from

652
00:51:49.199 --> 00:51:52.440
you, because, besides, their
story is also very lame and it struck

653
00:51:52.440 --> 00:51:57.920
me and they told me clearly that
it does count on us then, so

654
00:51:58.000 --> 00:52:00.199
that is to say, suddenly I
know something that they can teach you,

655
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:05.599
because everything is welcome, everything is
bivid. Brenda Manzano. I want to

656
00:52:05.599 --> 00:52:09.199
thank you so much. I'
m obviously going to invite you to another

657
00:52:09.400 --> 00:52:14.480
interview because I didn' t ask
the questions I wanted to ask you,

658
00:52:14.679 --> 00:52:17.360
not otherwise, also to get to
know you more, but I think the

659
00:52:17.360 --> 00:52:21.840
subject is very important. I think
it is very worthy to be made aware

660
00:52:21.920 --> 00:52:24.719
of all the effort, the dedication, how we can add, because,

661
00:52:25.440 --> 00:52:29.960
obviously, it is a group of
society. It' s society, too.

662
00:52:30.199 --> 00:52:31.239
They' re society, too,
but here I go with this.

663
00:52:31.519 --> 00:52:37.119
Is a society group that is marginalized
with guilt or without guilt, with reason

664
00:52:37.280 --> 00:52:40.199
or without reason? A few more, a few minus a few nothings.

665
00:52:42.119 --> 00:52:45.599
But I believe that, as human
beings, we have the right to forgiveness,

666
00:52:45.800 --> 00:52:51.960
to restitution. And if, obviously, there are crimes that where restitution

667
00:52:52.000 --> 00:52:57.159
does not fit because there is no
form, there is no way, if

668
00:52:57.239 --> 00:53:01.920
we can also think that we may
sin differently And there are times when sins

669
00:53:01.960 --> 00:53:06.760
that are hidden secret that no one
finds out, that no one sees,

670
00:53:07.360 --> 00:53:13.519
are more serious than those who are
there. And of course, although it

671
00:53:15.519 --> 00:53:20.079
can' t be legally categorized as
criminals. If criminals are secretly lying,

672
00:53:20.480 --> 00:53:25.639
hiding, cheating, being disloyal,
and that should be considered a crime and

673
00:53:25.760 --> 00:53:31.039
they should also be there. So, before we judge, I think we

674
00:53:31.119 --> 00:53:36.159
have three little fingers that are pointing
at us and the trial. I think

675
00:53:36.159 --> 00:53:38.159
we should take it off, Brenda. Thank you, there, see,

676
00:53:39.280 --> 00:53:43.679
thank you. I' d love
to. Finally, let' s imagine

677
00:53:43.760 --> 00:53:46.480
you' re going to give us
a message. We' ve already been

678
00:53:46.480 --> 00:53:50.800
notified tomorrow morning at ten in the
morning, you' re going to give

679
00:53:50.920 --> 00:53:52.639
us a message to the whole planet. Earth will be translated into all languages.

680
00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:59.000
They have already announced that it will
be broadcast on radio, on the

681
00:53:59.000 --> 00:54:04.199
Internet, on social networks, on
all social networks. What a message you

682
00:54:04.199 --> 00:54:08.000
' d give us. Please,
because I think very similar to what you

683
00:54:08.119 --> 00:54:13.679
said, that is, before judging
the other, we see ourselves in a

684
00:54:13.760 --> 00:54:17.239
mirror, before pointing out what the
next one is doing, so see how

685
00:54:17.239 --> 00:54:23.199
we are acting, how empathetic are
we being with the next one? I

686
00:54:23.280 --> 00:54:29.039
think that what we lack is a
lot of empathy, and it' s

687
00:54:29.079 --> 00:54:30.719
not woe' s empathy. I
put myself in the shoes of the others,

688
00:54:30.960 --> 00:54:32.239
of the other. No. You
don' t mean empathy, that

689
00:54:32.320 --> 00:54:38.559
is, empathy in every way,
that is, from knowing why he acts,

690
00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:44.480
how he acts, why he did
what he did. That empathy that

691
00:54:44.599 --> 00:54:52.079
makes you really add to our society, add to our community before you want

692
00:54:52.119 --> 00:54:57.039
to serve the reflectors. I don' t like that, I mean,

693
00:54:57.199 --> 00:55:00.480
let' s do it quietly.
No one ever knew what we were doing

694
00:55:00.519 --> 00:55:05.199
until recently, that well, people
already started to know more. But whatever

695
00:55:05.199 --> 00:55:08.159
you do, do it really with
will and empathy. I think that would

696
00:55:08.239 --> 00:55:13.400
be that message. Anything, anything
is more than what you tell a person

697
00:55:13.440 --> 00:55:20.480
you have to do with goodwill and
empathy. Wow. Thank you very much,

698
00:55:21.000 --> 00:55:28.159
thank you for your message. These
microphones are open as many times as

699
00:55:28.199 --> 00:55:31.000
you want and we' ll join
you. There is a group of entrepreneurs

700
00:55:31.519 --> 00:55:36.920
too that we are coordinating and also
otherwise, we are going to reach out

701
00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:38.679
to you and we are going to
do interesting things. Everyone loves Luis,

702
00:55:39.199 --> 00:55:45.840
or what' s needed is a
lot of support and nothing faster. I

703
00:55:45.320 --> 00:55:52.599
also really want to thank the directors
of the prisons, because thanks also to

704
00:55:52.000 --> 00:55:57.360
them there has been this openness and
this fair will that we talked about,

705
00:55:57.800 --> 00:56:01.960
a little while ago and this empathy
to help and bring the best tools.

706
00:56:02.000 --> 00:56:06.840
So, if they hadn' t
opened the doors for us, we wouldn

707
00:56:06.880 --> 00:56:12.199
' t be doing what we'
re doing either, then that also shows

708
00:56:12.320 --> 00:56:15.679
the quality of people who are in
those places, so that, well,

709
00:56:16.079 --> 00:56:20.639
we can get to add up the
way we want to do it, then

710
00:56:20.840 --> 00:56:25.199
also really infinite thanks to them.
It is beautiful and I do not want

711
00:56:28.639 --> 00:56:32.239
to say but also sectors of Government, some secretariats that have also supported this

712
00:56:32.320 --> 00:56:37.480
programme so that it can be maintained, sustained and we can continue to do

713
00:56:37.559 --> 00:56:40.360
and take, as this also involves
more and more people. And let these

714
00:56:40.400 --> 00:56:45.920
secretariats be examples, that they are
examples not only to want and for other

715
00:56:45.960 --> 00:56:51.480
secretariats of keretaro, or that they
are examples copy, copy, the good,

716
00:56:51.679 --> 00:56:55.840
but also, because for the federal
level, it is not important to

717
00:56:55.960 --> 00:57:00.480
have this Brenda empathy. Thank you, Blessings, many measured and to all

718
00:57:00.599 --> 00:57:06.599
of you thank you for having connected, thank you for sharing, thank you

719
00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:12.559
for your comments and in advance I
want to tell you in advance thank you,

720
00:57:13.639 --> 00:57:16.039
because I am sure many people will
listen to this call and will raise

721
00:57:16.039 --> 00:57:21.679
their hand. Thank you in advance
and I know that what you are going

722
00:57:21.679 --> 00:57:24.679
to bring and what you are going
to sow you will reap not here,

723
00:57:24.920 --> 00:57:30.280
on this planet earth forget about those
riches. I assure you that what you

724
00:57:30.360 --> 00:57:34.760
always have here will be harvested in
heaven. Blessings for all of us see

725
00:57:34.800 --> 00:57:37.000
each other and listen to each other
in a next chapter. Thank you,

726
00:57:37.480 --> 00:58:16.320
thank you, Luis Goodbye Naye.
So, all good everyone is
