    whether they are involved in the story. In Thomas King’s short story “Borders”‚ a twelve-year-old boy recounts the experience he had with his mother crossing the United States border.

Using the boy as the narrator was important to the telling of “Borders” because it provided an honest‚ unbiased communication of the events

    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. A whole lot of us (me included) live in what used to be Mexico (now referred to by people in the Chicano Movement as "Aztlan")

    On behalf of the City of Long Beach‚ I write deeply concerned about a Border Adjustment Tax and urge that you oppose this potential burden on imports and trade overall. Such a tax would disincentive imports and skew the market in favor of exporters‚ which would have a negative effect on the current business and growth of Long Beach’s local seaport. 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

    Agent of Change I believe that Doctors without Borders should win the first annual Agent of change award because their goal was to provide emergency medical aid‚ no matter where it is needed or who needs it.
