A string of burglaries and vandalism at small businesses in Sacramento. Also, a new book looks at the return migration of Mexican migrants leaving the U.S. Finally, Sacramento Public Library’s events celebrating children and lucha libre.

In recent weeks, there have been a string of break-ins targeting small businesses in Sacramento. Several eateries in neighborhoods spanning downtown, Land Park, Curtis Park and Tahoe Park have posted on social media, sharing video of their storefront windows being smashed. Craig Takehara is the Chef and Owner of Binchoyaki Izakaya Dining, which has been broken into and vandalized twice in the span of two weeks. He joins us for a conversation about the challenges facing small businesses.

Return Migration to Mexico

At a time when immigration and the threat of mass deportations have been dominating news headlines, a new book is looking into the number of Mexican migrants who have chosen to leave the United States and go back to Mexico, finding that this wave of return migration has hit a level not seen in at least 50 years. Erin Hamilton is a Professor of Sociology at UC Davis and one of the authors of The Returned: Former U.S. Migrants’ Lives in Mexico City which found that between 2010 and 2020, more people entered Mexico from the U.S. than entered the U.S. from Mexico.

Sacramento Public Library’s ‘Lucha Libro’

This month the Sacramento Public Library is celebrating Día de los Niños - Day of the Kids - with a focus on Mexican culture and lucha libre wrestling. The library’s “Lucha Libro In the Stacks” series combines bilingual storytelling, mask-making and live wrestling, and will culminate with a wrestling show on April 26 at Belle Cooledge Library. Early Learning Specialist Nate Halsan and Bilingual Services Specialist Víctor Jiménez Olvera talk about how “Lucha Libro” got started, and the benefits this programming provides to children and adults alike.
