This woman is teaching children on the border that we're all connected 🙌 Via nytimes
“Isn’t it so fascinating that the simple act of drawing a line on a map can transform the way we see and experience the world?” Ronald Rael observes in the opening of the documentary film “Borderlands,” which looks at communities in San Diego and Tijuana, Brownsville and Matamoros, and El Paso and Juárez. Rael, an architect, explores the area near the border fence outside El Paso with an eye tuned to reimagining the space around him and plotting ways to transgress it.
“Borderlands” attends to many realities that are often ignored in Washington. Rael embodies one such reality. Ana Eguiarte, an environmentalist in Tijuana, and Mauricio Ibarra, a city planner in Brownsville, offer their own lenses through which to view life in the region. Eguiarte is working to reduce the flows of trash into the Tijuana River Estuary. We meet her in a classroom, where she asks children if they know what happens to garbage when it rains. “” they all respond in unison.
