The Trans-Border Podcast from the University of San Diego’s Kroc School of Peace Studies explores the life histories of people shaped by the border, in their own words. We’re after the human side of immigration, foreign policy, law enforcement, and commerce – the stories and experiences that define the border as something more than a talking point or a call to arms. This is a forum for exploring personal opinions and experiences, not investigative journalism or activism. We give people the chance to speak, and you the listener, the chance to listen. With the Trans-Border Podcast, we see the border as an opportunity, not a crisis.
