Web Serial - The Other Walls

Twenty five years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, other walls have been built, to isolate countries and keep people out. Today's program takes a look at two such walls: the Melia Border Fence, built by Spain in territory contested by Morocco, which is designed to keep immigrants from North and Central Africa and Centyraimmigrants from entering the country; and the 6 kilometer, 3 meter high militarized Border Wall in Arizona separating the United States and Mexico, whose aim is to stem the northbound tide of Mexican and Central American migrants. Both walls hide the human tragedy of immigrants facing hardships, violence, and sometimes death in their quest to seek a better life for themselves and their children. teleSUR
