Summary: MEXICO EDITION. Pope Francis promises a Church for the poor, as he begins his papacy and takes on the highest position in the Catholic Church. The nationality of the new Pope and his discourse are awakening expectations in Latin America, and leaders of 11 countries in the region attended the ceremony. However, Catholic activists insist that the Catholic Church cannot leave the crimes committed by pederast priests unpunished. They say Benedict XVI, who stepped down on February 28th, and all the bishops who covered up sexual abuse, should be called to judgment. This edition also includes a report that the crime of child trafficking and sexual slavery of women brings in billions of dollars worldwide. Martha Elena Ramírez hosts Voz Pública from Mexico City. Guests: Marilú Rojas Salazar, Theologist and feminist, Mexico City, Mexico; Alberto Athié, Activist and former priest, Mexico City, Mexico (pretaped); Teresa Ulloa, Director, Regional Coalition against Trafficking of Women and Girls in Latin America and the Caribbean, Mexico City, Mexico (pretaped).
