SOA (School of the Americas) Watch -
Border Encuentro - November 10-12, 2017
Day 3 of a 3 day "Encuentro" in the border region of Arizona and along the Nogales border wall in both the US and Mexico. Organized by School of the Americas Watch (SOA Watch), thousands were brought together to take a hard look at the massive human costs of border militarization and US immigration policies... and to protest the long and current history of US intervention in the affairs of Latin America.
From the SOA Watch website:
"Our Mission:
SOA Watch is a nonviolent grassroots movement working to close the SOA / WHINSEC and similar centers that train state actors such as military, law enforcement and border patrol. We strive to expose, denounce, and end US militarization, oppressive US policies and other forms of state violence in the Americas. We act in solidarity with organizations and movements working for justice and peace throughout the Americas.
Our demands:
- An end to US economic, military and political intervention in Latin America
- Demilitarization and divestment of the borders
- An end to the racist systems of oppression that criminalize and kill migrants, refugees and communities of color
- Respect, dignity, justice and the right to self-determination of communities
- An end to Plan Mérida and the Alliance for Prosperity"

A fat bloke in disguise, one of first patrols out to Qld Border from Tennant Creek over Christmas school Holidays December 1982. Only weeks out of training, in a different world, was safe to travel about in remote areas unarmed. Tennant Creek, being some 470 kms distant
Ontario-Manitoba border, looking from Ontario. (But where is the actual line? The road is obviously paved differently up to a point just behind our car and the small fence and white-over-green diamond marker to mark end of fence is a very Ontario thing (never saw it in Manitoba). The "100" speed limit sign, though is in the style one would see in Manitoba (plus, the speed is 100 in Manitoba as opposed to 90 in Ontario)

The landscape of the Scottish Borders (I'm not exactly sure where I was when I took this which is terrible but I wasn't driving!) It's somewhere between Howick and Bonchester Bridge if that helps. This dry stone wall really couldn't be ignored, it would have been almost criminal :)
It was quite a windy day if memory serves and the cloud movement really adds something to this I think

This is the new Editor-in-Chief of "Cancer Research" right before he made a run across the border into Nebraska. My question: if Nebraska is the home of Arbor Day, then why aren't there any trees within a 53 mile radius of this sign?
This looks more like a library in a stately home (gentleman's library) than an area for young adult fiction. The junior area is bright and exciting, this area is fine to sit in but not what I would have chosen for teenagers
On my way from Monmouth to Skenfrith, more or less following the Wales/England border on the Welsh side.
The 1960s-era Mexican customs building at the U.S. border has recieved a makeover. Looks really good...a nice update. I'm not sure what the building is used for anymore.

United Methodist bishops from all over the world visit the U.S. - Mexico border to immerse themselves in the reality of life at the Southern border of the U.S. and sharpen their focus on how the church can be in ministry to persons residing there on May 7, 2013.

Moldovan farmers are separated from their land by a border crossing. A new border crossing, carried out by UNDP and funded by the European Union, is being built. The border will have dedicated routes for bicycles, cars, trucks and pedestrians – reserved especially for farmers. It will take less than ten minutes for anyone to go through..It’s expected that the number of people who cross the border through Palanca will double every year. The new infrastructure will also increase safety and reduce the possibility of corruption. Read more: www.eurasia.undp.org/content/rbec/en/home/stories/to-farm...
