I read everything I can about the Mexico-America border. I’m slightly obsessed with it- partially due to the first trip I spent in Mexico‚ where we studied border issues in depth. It’s not really fair to speak of Mexico without the context of the United States and/or the border‚ and honestly‚ it’s not really fair to talk about the United States without talking about Mexico.

This has led to drastic measures by the Government funded Border Control agencies. Violence has risen by both sides of the dispute. The increased use of force to control our borders impacts relations not only externally‚ but internally. The U.S. prison system is being filled with individuals who have found themselves living illegally within the country. This causes conflicts

Slavery‚ but immigration issues still exist. Beyond Borders: A History of Mexican Migration to the United States delivers an abundance of information that contributes to the evidence of the ongoing issue. The author emphasizes ratiocinations on why Mexicans aim to live in the United States‚ what they are trying to escape from in Mexico‚ the restraints they are facing in the United States‚ and the conditions they are facing while crossing the border to get into the United States.

The Port of Long Beach is one of the world’s busiest seaports and the second-busiest port in the United States. It supports over a million jobs nationally

In 1971‚ a small group of doctors in Paris formed this organization. This was the beginning of Medecins Sans Frontieres‚ (MSF) or‚ in English‚ Doctors Without Borders.
