Hi John, Since its construction began under the Trump administration, more than 450 miles of border wall were erected, bisecting a rich and unique natural landscape, and causing harm to wildlife in the process. The New Yorker's newly released article and documentary, American Scar, show the unfortunate devastation firsthand.
Join me and my colleagues from Sky Island Alliance, Cuenca Los Ojos, and The New Yorker for a virtual screening of this short film, tomorrow evening, May 4 at 6pm MT. Following the viewing we will have a moderated panel discussion about the impact of border wall construction on border communities and the region’s water, plants, and animals with the film’s director, producer, and stars of the film. I look forward to seeing you there!
