Standing with O’odham against the desecration of ancient beings and sacred lands. Witnessing the wall's construction site leaves me without words. The wall's destruction to the borderlands is almost immeasurable and definitely unbearable.

We hear what natives have to say about the wall's devastating construction. As well as what Laiken Jordahl, a Borderlands Campaigner for the Center for Biological Diversity, has been witnessing of the wall's construction.

While this episode was being published, blasting of the ancient burial sites were taking place. Forever changing the landscape of these sacred lands, and forever erasing the culture of the Tohono O’odham people.
