DESCRIPTION:These 3 films highlight the human and environmental costs of border 
 militarization. Everyone is invited to come see the impacts of current  
 U.S. border policy on immigrants, border communities, human rights, and the 
 environment.   Immigrants For Sale (2013, 33 min.) is a ground-breaking 
 documentary that goes inside the private immigrant-detention industry 
 through the lens of those most impacted and the players behind the trade, 
 examining the multi-billion dollar profits that fuel it all. Wild Versus 
 Wall   (2010, 20 min.) covers the ecological effects of the border wall 
 along the U.S. boundary with Mexico. The Department of Homeland Security 
 waived 37 federal environmental-protection and other laws along our 
 borderlands, resulting in a brutalized landscape and a compromised legal 
 system. The Fence   (2010, 30 min.), award-winning filmmaker Rory 
 Kennedy’s HBO documentary, includes candid interviews with Border Patrol 
 agents, ranchers, environmentalists, and voices from both sides of the 
 border-security debate. Kennedy uses humor to highlight contradictions and 
 politically driven misinformation, as well as the ineffectiveness and 
 costliness of the controversial border barrier. Following the films will be 
 a Q&A with people who know the situation first-hand.\n\nFor more info call:
