In this undated family photo released Saturday, Nov. 17, 2012, Juan Chiu Trujillo, a Chinese Mexican , third from right, poses with his wife and children. Chiu who was born in Mexico, was among thousands of Chinese Mexicans expelled when Mexico erupted into xenophobia fueled by the economic turmoil of the Great Depression. Chiu returned in 1960, along with his pregnant wife and four children and 300 other Chinese-Mexicans, after President Adolfo Lopez Mateos paid for their travel expenses and decreed that they would be legally allowed to live in Mexico. Dozens of those Chinese-Mexicans and their descendants gather Saturday, Nov. 24, 2012, at a Chinese restaurant in central Mexico City to celebrate the anniversary of their return.

In this May 17, 2012 photo, migrants, mostly from Honduras, watch a southbound train pass by as they wait for one going north, in Lecheria, on the outskirts of Mexico City. While the number of Mexicans heading to the U.S. has dropped dramatically, a surge of Central American migrants is making the 1,000-mile northbound journey this year, fueled in large part by the rising violence brought by the spread of Mexican drug cartels.

In this still image taken from the trailer of the film "Colosio" released by the film's producers Alebrije/Cinetc on June 13, 2012, Mexican actor Enoc Leano plays the part of the slain Mexican presidential candidate Luis Donaldo Colosio on the day he was assassinated in Tijuana, Mexico on March 23, 1994. "Colosio," which portrays the 1994 killing of a candidate who was almost certain to be the next president, casts doubts on the official conclusion that a lone gunman planned and carried out the killing of Luis Donaldo Colosio, which is often compared to John F. Kennedy's assassination. It is one of several new politically minded films being released just ahead of Mexico's July 1 election that are aimed at reminding Mexicans of the dark side of the Institutional Revolutionary Party, which governed Mexico for 71 years, and which seems set to return to power.
