Source text - Spanish Los desplazados por la violencia
Una masa de gente anónima se encuentra en movimiento permanente en los sectores populares venezolanos: se mudan de sus barrios, abandonan sus casas o envían lejos a sus hijos. Todos buscan lo mismo: escapar de las secuelas que deja la inseguridad
__________________________________
Mudó a sus hijos del barrio apenas se convenció de que los buscaban para matarlos. Iba de regreso a casa una mañana cuando vio el cadáver abaleado de un muchacho, casi un niño, en una calle cercana. Una vecina le habló con palabras que fueron un antídoto contra el autoengaño. "Saca a los morochos de aquí, porque a ellos también los estaban esperando". Los mellizos, sin haber terminado el sexto grado y a los 12 años de edad, enfrentaban una condena inapelable y sólo tenían una oportunidad para sobrevivir: escapar. "Mandé a mis hijos lejos para protegerlos", recuerda la madre. Lo hizo tanto como pudo: a la casa de los abuelos en el estado Sucre, a más de 400 kilómetros del barrio de Petare donde vivían. Huyeron, como quien huye de una guerra sin normas. Eran perseguidos por dos bandas rivales que coincidían en el deseo de verlos muertos.
"Nunca hicieron nada. Pero mi sobrino sí pertenecía a uno de esos grupos. Se quedó con el dinero de unos zapatos robados y lo mataron. Ahí empezó todo". Los niños, por el mero hecho de ser familiares, quedaron marcados en la lista de blancos para la ejecución.
Translation - English Displaced by violence
A mass of anonymous people are in never-ending move in Venezuela’s popular areas: they go away from their neighborhoods, abandon their homes, or send their children away. They all seek out the same: to escape from the terrible after-effects of insecurity
____________________________________
She moved her children out of the neighborhood as soon as she convinced herself that they were being sought to be killed. She was on her way back home one morning when she saw the corpse of a boy, almost a child, who had been shot in a nearby street. A neighbor spoke to her with words that served as an antidote to self-deception. "Take the twins out of here, because they were waiting for them too." The 12-year-old twins, who had not even completed sixth grade, faced an unappealable conviction, and escaping was their only chance to survive. "I sent my children away in order to protect them," says the mother. She took them as far as she could: to their grandparents' home in the state of Sucre, over 250 miles away from the neighborhood where they lived, in Petare. They fled as someone who flees a war with no rules. They were sought after by two rival bands that shared their desire to see them dead. "They never did anything. My nephew did belong to one of those groups. He kept the money from a pair of stolen shoes, and they killed him. This is how it all started." Just for the fact of being relatives, her children were marked in the list of targets for execution.
