The light of this afternoon falls on the wall, again the wall.

They don't know what day it is, what time it is, where they are, they only know that they "already crossed" into the United States. They are trapped between two walls "on the gringo side," they themselves say. They abandoned, left, walked and arrived in this part of the world, after crossing more than seven countries, some from Venezuela, others from Colombia, others from Afghanistan, from more than 121 nationalities have arrived at the border.

The scene surprises everyone, an encampment with pieces of thermal fabric, bottles with water thrown everywhere, improvised roofs with blankets, two portable toilets and the heat that does not arrive. Since last November, it has been possible to observe, through the wall that divides Mexico from the United States, several groups of migrants camping on the U.S. side and waiting for the arrival of the Border Patrol to be transferred to a Detention Center to see if they will be interned in the U.S. or returned to Mexico.
