The images that come to

There is also other borders such as cultural and social borders. #Hist416

When I think of borders I think of my home city of Chandler, Arizona. Even though i’m three hours away I’ve drove by it many times, saw the border patrol cars everyday, and it being a consistent topic in school. #Hist416
