The Texas Border
Starting from Brownsville all the way through Laredo to El Paso, the Texas/Mexico border runs over one thousand miles. The majority of the population in this part of Texas is Mexican American. The border has been a hot button issue for many political cycles over decades. Today, it is being described as a violent place of chaos, but it has been home for generations of Mexican American citizens.
