Cubans made up the majority of the migrants, but there were also people from Honduras, Ecuador, Brazil, and Haiti. Cuban migrant Losiel Sánchez and his wife arrived in Tapachula, near the border with Guatemala, in November. Sánchez decided to stay in Mexico and seek asylum, but despite numerous visits to Mexico’s asylum agency, known as Comar, the couple still doesn’t have an answer about their status. “There’s no work; they don’t want to give you work if you don’t have papers.”Anery Sosa, another Cuban migrant, has been in Tapachula for a year. The group of migrants appeared to have organized without a leader over social platforms where frustrated migrants rallied to try to walk their way out of southern Mexico.
