The American Dream Hides Somewhere Along the US-Mexico Border

Car w/ texas license plates parked in front of us mexico border wall

This details my 10-days reporting journey along the U.S.-Mexico border exploring border culture and its relationship with immigration, all in a quest to learn more about the current state of The American Dream. This journalistic piece details my experiences and findings, and the subsequent critical statement details the creative process I carried out in reporting and writing this story.
