| "Side A of the work depicts the fences and maps of the entire US/Mexico border from the Pacific ocean to the Gulf of Mexico with symbolic migrants / asylum seekers reinforcing it. [Side B] includes information which was culled from books and articles from various newspapers, the internet and magazines, and highlights the results of government prejudices and policies and the disregard for human rights. This country is made up of immigrants like myself and it is richer for it. Those policies are destroying the diversity of who we are as a nation, questioning Roosevelt's four freedoms, disregarding damage to the environment, Native American burial grounds etc., for the purpose of satisfying ego and to grab power on the back of the defenseless people."
