Build Bridges, Not Walls: A Journey To A World Without Borders with Todd Miller, an activist and who has researched and written about border issues for twenty years. His works include Storming the Wall: Climate Change, Migration, and Homeland Security and Border Patrol Nation: Dispatches from the Front Lines of Homeland Security and his newest book Build Bridges, Not Walls!
Todd Miller has been reporting from international border zones for over twenty-five years and takes us on a journey that begins with the most basic questions: What happens to our collective humanity when the impulse to help one another is criminalized? Miller takes us through a series of encounters -with climate refugees, members of indigenous communities, and provokes reflections on the ways in which nation-states create the very problems that drive immigration, and how the abolition of borders could make the world a more sustainable, habitable place for all.
As more and more millions are forced to migrate to survive, and as militarized borders disfigure an ever-increasing portion of the Earth's surface, Todd Miller's analysis and reporting have become essential to understanding both the world in which we live and the one for which we have to fight.
