CIUDAD JUÁREZ - The sun beats down on the houses of Pan De Vida, a shelter for migrants in Rancho Anapra, a barrio of Ciudad Juárez. In between white houses trimmed with blue, kids whizz by on bikes, shouts ringing out over the dust settling across the courtyard. Dogs recline in the shade, tongues lolling.
At the house on the corner, overlooking the yard, is the temporary home of 11 Hondurans, who fled — some just children — towards the United States. After months of travel, thousands of miles, they landed here.
Inside, the walls are painted a light pink, the cabinets and trim a bright seafoam green, the air thick with heat.
