Café Mayapan

Teatro Sin Fronteras returns to the Borderland!

This July, we'll be in El Paso to perform EL CORRIDO DE LA SOLDADERA, the first play we presented as a company in 2021. In the years since, we've been hard at work refining the show and are proud to return to tell this story about revolutionary women.

On July 6, we'll be presenting SOLDADERA at Café Mayapan in benefit of Trans-Fronterizxs, a non-profit organization based in the borderland. All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to support Trans-Fronterizxs' work with and for trans folk in the borderland.

Tickets are on sale NOW! We hope to see you as we raise a glass, look to the stars, and bring this beautiful story back to the borderland where it was born!

Keep an eye out on our social media - we'll be sharing more soon about additional performances and workshops in El Paso!

BARRIO CHAMIZAL RESIDENTS URGE CITY COUNCIL: G E T T H E T R U C K S O U T !

EL PASO, TEXAS- ON TUESDAY, JANUARY 30, 2024 Familias Unidas del Chamizal will urge El Paso City Council to Take Action (AGENDA #19) and support residents' demand to get the commercial trucks out of el puente libre- the Bridge of the Americas. Barrio residents have cited serious health and environmental concerns and are asking the El Paso City Council to protect children's health and place a very high priority in communities like ours where environmental injustice has deadly and debilitating consequences. ‘The effects are forever.’

Our neighborhood is subjected to various sources of pollution, the Cumulative Impacts are compounded by concerning health vulnerabilities. Our neighborhood bears many burdens, to include: a major international port-of-entry overloaded w/ diesel trucks emitting high levels of cancerous pollutants; a public school bus terminal of over 150 school buses; industrial waste recycling facilities shredding metals, electronics, and batteries in out-dated & open-air lots; in addition to the 12+ fires/year that erupt from those industrial waste sites. There is an overload of environmental injustice in our neighborhood affecting our children's health.

The residents of Barrio Chamizal demand: ‘Get the trucks out of the Puente Libre!’ The trucks are the highest contributors to diesel particulate matter (see map below) and should be re-routed out of our thriving neighborhood of 7,000+ residents. Our Puente Libre- The Bridge of the Americas is the only toll-free international port of entry because it was intended for the people, not the maquiladora industry. Today, El Puente Libre is the second busiest port-of-entry along the border; and despite years of overuse, the maquiladora industry does not contribute to the maintenance of the bridge, roads and infrastructure they readily overuse.

El Paso’s Bridge of the Americas, El Puente Libre in our neighborhood, is receiving $700+ million of federal Bipartisan Infrastructure funding for necessary renovations. This long-overdue investment should be used as intended- to reduce the carbon footprint and address the impact on overburdened, vulnerable communities, specifically, our children’s health.

Current plans proposed by the federal General Services Administration include: various options of adding more lanes for semi-truck commercial traffic, which will lead to more trucks and more environmental concerns or, Option #4: To Remove Commercial Traffic. If we are able to ‘reduce emissions like black carbon from commercial truck pollution, we would also see an immediate climate benefit.’ We have the opportunity to send our concerns to the federal government.

We ask El Paso Mayor and Council to send a clear message to protect our children’s health and support the removal of commercial truck traffic from el puente libre, The Bridge of the Americas, in barrio Chamizal.

Café Mayapan “hosts multiple cultural events and festivals for the community, one of them being for the Day of the Dead, Dia de los Mu***os. Gomez says volunteers and members of the community are encouraged to help support these events by attending them. “

Gomez also says it is helpful for volunteers to attend protests and community development projects to improve the conditions in the barrio, and the areas surrounding Café Mayapan.

While the projects of Café Mayapan do not stop there, the Tierra es Vida Community Farm is a one-acre plot of land where ancestral food-growing practices live on. The produce from Tierra es Vida provides the El Paso community with locally grown food, while the farm itself serves to teach people about traditional foods and relationships within their communities.

Café Mayapan keeps the beautiful tapestry of Mexican cultures and traditions alive through its programs and rich flavors. Events like the upcoming Dia de Mu***os celebration aid in keeping people closely connected to their heritage while supporting the mission that Café Mayapan hopes to keep alive for years to come.’
