SuitabookThe border wall with Mexico
Marty Gitlin
- Reading
- Read one section at a time; pause to distinguish evidence from opinion and note what each writer values. Compare opposing pieces before deciding where you stand.
- Themes
- Border wall debate: The collection brings together arguments for and against a US–Mexico border wall, including claims about security, immigration and American values. The overview says contrasting positions receive a fair and respectful hearing, leaving readers to assess their arguments rather than announcing a single conclusion.
- Worth knowing
- The topics include immigration, claims about racism, environmental harm, taxpayers and the historical horrors of mass deportation. These are weighty political and human issues, though the book’s treatment of each is unclear.
