Protesters to march against Texas-Mexico border fence – (organized in part by teachers)
Tagged: border, brownsville, Mexico, protest, teacher, Texas
Protesters against the Texas-Mexico border fence will launch a nine-day march at the Rio Grande today, starting at Roma, Texas, and ending in Brownsville.
The 115-mile march is organized in part by schoolteachers at U.S. border schools who say they don’t want to see a fence cleave through entwined communities.
“The wall represents the militarization of the border, and the border is my home,” said John Moore, an 8th-grade English teacher in Brownsville. “The border is a region, rather than a line and, culturally, there are more similarities between Brownsville and Matamoros, than Brownsville and Dallas.”"*
