Joven venezolano obtiene residencia tras haber sido deportado

Juan José Correa Villalonga miró el sobre, lo tanteó para sentir los documentos que traía adentro y lo abrazó contra su pecho, pero no lo abrió. Dejó que lo hiciera su madre, Helene Villalonga, porque la tarjeta de residencia permanente o “green card” que venía dentro representaba la lucha de años que ella había librado.

De esta manera, el joven venezolano se convirtió en una de las pocas personas que han sido deportadas a sus países de origen y se les ha permitido regresar a Estados Unidos. Quizás sea el único venezolano en lograrlo hasta ahora.

“Me siento muy afortunado por esto”, declaró Juan durante una entrevista con El Nuevo Herald días después de que le llegara el documento.

“Yo sé que hay muchas personas que están siendo separadas de su familia y no logran volver a reunirse, así que para mí esto es una bendición”.

Su madre, Helene Villalonga, es una conocida activista pro derechos humanos y crítica del gobierno de Hugo Chávez. Cuando Juan tenía 11 años, en el 2000, la familia huyó de Venezuela debido a que eran víctimas de una persecución política. En Estados Unidos pidieron asilo político pero fueron estafados por dos abogados que no los representaron correctamente y al final se les negó la petición.

Hasta ahora los venezolanos exiliados no gozan de ningún privilegio migratorio aunque funcionarios de la Policía de Inmigración y Aduanas (ICE) dijeron que el número de deportaciones de venezolanos ha disminuido. Según cifras de ICE, más de 400 venezolanos fueron deportados anualmente entre el 2007 y el 2010. En el 2011, sin embargo, el número de deportaciones cayó a 290.

Juan se graduó en el 2007 con honores de la escuela secundaria y recibió varias becas, incluyendo la de la Lotería de la Florida. Fue aceptado en FIU pero por su condición de indocumentado no tuvo acceso al dinero de sus becas. Apenas cursó su primer semestre de Psicología cuando se dio cuenta de que no podía seguir pagando de su propio bolsillo. Entonces decidió irse a Canadá, donde también lo habían otorgado becas en varias universidades.

Manejó por seis días en su Dodge Neon dorado y estaba cerca de la frontera con Canadá cuando, el 27 de junio del 2009, se detuvo a la orilla del camino en Vermont y fue detenido por un agente de la patrulla de carreteras.

“¿Usted sabe que tiene una orden de deportación?”, le preguntó el oficial, pero Juan no entendía de qué se trataba.

“Le expliqué que mi familia tenía un caso de asilo abierto pero fue ahí cuando me enteré de que nos habían puesto una orden de deportación y el abogado nunca nos avisó”.

Pasó por tres cárceles en dos meses y, a pesar de que su familia advirtió a las autoridades de inmigración sobre el peligro que representaba para Juan volver a Venezuela, una noche de agosto fue deportado sin tener tiempo de avisarle a nadie.

Llegó a Caracas a las 5 de la mañana con $195 en el bolsillo. Juan recordaba dos números de teléfonos de familiares en Venezuela, los de su tía Vivian y su abuela Blanca.

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING...

~Leaders applaud Gov. Scott's Florida Families First Budget on Environmental Protection~

Eric Draper, Executive Director of Audubon Florida

"This is really good news on both fronts. It's the first time in several years that we will see over $130 million in potential funding for both these programs(Florida Forever and Everglades)."

"It feels like we have turned a corner with Governor Scott. This budget seems to be a good environmental budget."

"It's starting to put environmental spending back on track where it used to be. Gov. Scott is starting to make the environment a priority. This does seem like a different Gov. Scott. We're seeing his office listening more."

Eric Eikenberg, Everglades Foundation Chief Executive Officer

“We strongly support his recommendation to provide $60 million for Everglades restoration. We appreciate the governor’s commitment to Everglades restoration and we believe the Florida Legislature will more than match his recommendation.”

David Mica, Executive Director of the Florida Petroleum Council

"It's very positive. I think it represents the commitment of the governor to the drinking water and groundwater of the state."

Florida Forever Coalition

“The governor’s Florida Forever budget recommendation is a positive step forward for Florida. His $75 million recommendation puts Florida Forever back on the right track. With the economy recovering, it is important to allocate funds to preserve our state’s natural areas and protect the places that make Florida special. We look forward to working alongside the governor this legislative session to advocate for the appropriation of funds for Florida Forever.”

FLORIDA PARK SERVICE COMMEMORATES BLACK HISTORY MONTH AND VIVA FLORIDA 500 IN FEBRUARY

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Feb. 1, 2013

FLORIDA PARK SERVICE COMMEMORATES BLACK HISTORY MONTH AND VIVA FLORIDA 500 IN FEBRUARY

~Many historical and cultural events planned this month throughout the state~

Living historians reenact the Battle of Bloody Mose.

TALLAHASSEE – The Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Florida Park Service is proud to host many historical and cultural events this month in recognition of Black History Month and Viva Florida 500. Florida State Parks will commemorate their role in African-American history through reenactments of key battles, educational displays and interactive programs. These activities will bring history to life and set the stage for a fun, educational family outing.

“Creating educational opportunities about our significant historical resources is an important part of the state park mission to provide resource-based recreation while preserving, interpreting and restoring natural and cultural resources,” said Donald Forgione, DEP’s Florida Park Service Director. “Florida’s state parks and trails provide an exceptional look into our past that shaped our great state as we know it today.”

Florida is rich in African-American history and Florida State Parks tell the stories of daily life, traditions and turning points in American history. Florida’s state parks are home to Civil War battle grounds where African-American regiments fought against Confederate soldiers at the 1864 Battle of Olustee, as well sites along the Underground Railroad like the lighthouse at Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park in Key Biscayne, listed as a site on the National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom. America’s first free black settlement is located in Florida at Fort Mose Historic State Park, where escaped slaves took refuge in the 1700s.

Many of Florida's state parks and trails offer an educational look at history and culture. Some offer valuable lessons for African American History Month, Native American history and more, all of which are commemorated during Viva Florida 500.

African-American History Events include:

Fort Mose Historic State Park in St. Augustine is the site of the first legally sanctioned free African settlement in what is now the United States. On Saturday, Feb. 9 from 10 a.m.to 3 p.m., living historians will present Flight to Freedom with guided tours to allow visitors to listen to the tales of oppression and resistance and the struggle for freedom. The park is also offering a lecture series on the Birth Place of Freedom. $2 per person, museum admission fee.

In Key West, Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park will present Civil War Heritage Days from Friday, Feb. 8 through Sunday, Feb. 10. This three-day event will feature land and sea battles with reenactors in period costume and more. Free with park admission of $6 per vehicle, up to eight people.

From Friday, Feb. 15 to Sunday, Feb. 17, the reenactment of Florida's largest Civil War battle will take place at Olustee Battlefield Historic State Park, east of Lake City. Between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily, more than 2,000 reenactors will present military and civilian life from 1864 along with the battle on Sunday at 1:30 p.m. Adults $7, children six and older $5.

On Thursday, Feb. 21, the Silver River Museum will present Glass Bottom Boat Captains of Silver Springs at Silver River State Park. Open House will run from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. and the program begins at 6 p.m. Free but space is limited.

On Saturday, Feb. 23, baseball games will be played on the ball fields currently located near the site of the former Negro League ball field at Santos, located just east of US 441 on SW 80 Street between Ocala and Belleview. The Historic Santos Park is located on Cross Florida Greenway land that was acquired as part of the 1930’s Cross Florida Ship Canal project when a sea-level ship canal was planned and started to connect shipping from the Gulf of Mexico to the St. Johns River and Atlantic Ocean near Jacksonville.

Native-American History Events include:

On Saturday & Sunday, Feb. 9 and 10 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., enjoy Fort Foster Days as military, Seminole and civilian reenactors portray life from the Second Seminole War period at Fort Foster Historic Site, which is part of Hillsborough River State Park, just north of Tampa. Both days will feature firing demonstrations through the day and a skirmish after 1 p.m. $5 donation per person.

On Saturday, Feb. 9 from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m., the Lee Trust for Historic Preservation will hold a free symposium titled "Conquistadors and the Calusa: Reflections on Resistance" at Koreshan State Historic Site in Estero. Space is limited. You can pre-register by email.

On Saturday, Feb. 9 from 9 a.m. to noon, visitors can take a fascinating journey by van into the forest at Ichetucknee Springs State Park to the site of the 17th Century Mission de San Martin de Timucua. Space is limited. Call 386-497-4690 for reservations. $6 per vehicle, up to eight people.

Viva Florida 500

Every week in 2013, the Florida Park Service will highlight a significant event or milestone that happened in a state park or associated with a state park on a new web page called, “Viva Florida 500 – History Notes.” At this web page, visitors can learn about Florida’s heritage through state parks and then experience it in real life by visiting that particular state park. The first weekend of February is jam-packed with history at Florida's state parks. From Plow Days at Dudley Farm Historic State Park (Newberry) on Feb. 1 & 2 and the Plantation Festival at Judah P. Benjamin Confederate Memorial at Gamble Plantation Historic State Park (Ellenton) on Feb. 2 & 3 to the Candlelight Tour at Torreya State Park (Bristol) and the Maritime Archaeology program at Anastasia State Park (St. Augustine) on Feb. 2, there's lots to learn and experience. Don't miss the Stone Age and Primitive Arts Festival at Ochlockonee River State Park on Feb. 22-24.

This is just a sample of the many history focused events being held this month throughout the state.
