The American Dream is your goal, and why thousands of Central American migrants begin an adventure full of bitterness that runs several Mexican states.
"Many are also victims of robbery, kidnapping, rape and torture"
The Beast, the train that transports goods from the south of that country through border towns with the U.S., is the means used by these desperate people, and Univision collected some testimonies of those who embarked on the journey.
Comment on this and other news in our forum
It looks like a river of people. There are hundreds of Central American migrants who walk forward along the tracks waiting for the train freighter. They have over 24 hours in Ixtepec, Oaxaca. Everyone wants to reach the United States
You never know when or what time does the Beast, the best sign is when it starts to engage wagons. In the first movement of the locomotive depart migrants everywhere. Within minutes the Beast is covered by a human cloud, as Peter tells us Ultreras.
Many are also victims of robbery, kidnapping, rape and torture, by those engaged in committing crimes on this popular road between immigrants.
These migrants are part of that wave of Central American children and mothers with children who are to be delivered to the U.S. Border Patrol.
They risk the lives of their children
A young woman travels with her children from 6 years to North Carolina. He says that in his native Guatemala mothers knew that the American government as it has opened the doors.
"Yes, I've heard that this happens ... so that is why I have been struggling with my child," said the interviewee.
Many parents feel the same way and go with that illusion. Why risk your children on this journey and in the clutches of the Beast.
While most people are aware of the risks to get on 'The Beast', wishes to achieve the American dream, are bigger than anything else.
In one of the cars, a young Salvadoran traveling with two younger brothers, one 12 and another 14.She told the cameras that will deliver Univision immigration because they know they're going to release. His parents are in Houston, 8 who does not see them.
"The idea is to cross them, cross them and the grip and see how you do," said Young.
At the top of the Beast is no guarantee that they will soon leave. No one dares to move or lose their place or leave the train without them. This day touched them wait 10 hours on the train. It was at two in the morning and in the middle of a storm. And so is the rest of your trip to Mexico until they reach the northern border. Cross into the United States that is another story.
