The News on the Line "Transition in the Borderlands" series continues with another segment:

Showdown At The Rio Bosque

This is the story of the first and so far only act of civil disobedience committed to stop construction of the border wall, in El Paso, Texas.

As Barrack Obama was being sworn into office, I was talking with an expert on ecology and biodiversity in the border region, Professor Landeros of the Autonomous University of Baja California, in Mexicali. He told me about the state of the borderlands and his hope for them in the future.

After my return from the "Borderlands in Transition" trip, I've been evaluating my footage and preparing to edit several more segments covering the many people I talked to about the border wall and border militarization.

This morning I am in El Paso, Texas as I continue my quick survey of the U.S./Mexico border, the "Transition in the Borderlands" project I have been working on for over a week now.
