Beyond the Wall, a 30-minute film produced as part of the Tribune's yearlong Bordering on Insecurity project, traces the steps of undocumented immigrants, border patrol agents and border residents to better understand what impact a border wall might have on stemming the cross-border flow.
We invite you to watch our film and the panel discussion, moderated by the Tribune's Jay Root and featuring Julián Aguilar, reporter for the Tribune; Bill Hammond, former CEO of the Texas Association of Business; A.J. Louderback, Jackson County Sheriff; and DACA recipient Norma Torres Mendoza.
