Mesquite Media

“Mesquite Media” is a grassroots, community driven media project which provides news, analysis, investigative reporting and entertainment to the Permian and El Paso region. An education project of Sunrise Movement El Paso, Mesquite Media’s audience is both the frontera community of El Paso and the oilfields of the Permian Basin–understood as a single community whose issues and culture cross pollinate. Mesquite Media’s educational materials would inform the Frontera-Permian community on: -> the political and economic interconnectedness of the region; -> environmental impacts of local fossil fuel industries; -> the local labor impacts of corporate greed; -> the impact of militarization on the region’s working class material conditions; air emission and water integrity reports; and more.
