Just finished this podcast series by Crimethinc: No wall they can build. So well done and also available as a book. An interweaving of stories from desert aid workers in their time with migrants struggling across the desert southwest with analysis of what is going on with the migration from Mexico and south of Mexico with specific looks at Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador. And, of course, constant and direct US interventions have been critical for the duration. It will come as no surprise that decades of US foreign policy in these countries was on behalf of US-based capitalists, for example, United Fruit Company. It always is. We live in and under a brutally violent system of state and capital though we don't usually see the direct brutality ourselves nor do we acknowledge it when we should. If we're not actively organizing to abolish this system we should own our role in allowing it to exist. #Capitalism #US #Politics #Violence #Colonialism #Imperialism https://crimethinc.com/podcasts/no-wall-they-can-build
