Repressing Solidarity in Lochiel: Part 2

This is the second part of our series "Repressing Solidarity in Arizona's Borderlands" featuring two aid workers from No More Deaths / No Más Muertes. They break down repression of migrant solidarity and anti-border wall organizing in Arizona's borderlands. In Part I, you heard a more general overview of migrant solidarity networks, organizing against the border wall, and what repression looks like. In Part II, we discuss a more recent instance of border wall resistance and criminalization in Lochiel, AZ that followed a tree-sit that delayed construction of the border wall and destruction of a grandmother cottonwood tree for two months.
