In order to dismantle the neo-liberal capitalist ‘failed’ state we must believe and construct another world possible and to immediately make for another United States becomes even more necessary…
Because…
The United States-Mexico border communities rejected building the Border WALL of Death because it was seen as a shameful way to relate to your neighboring nation
The United States-Mexico border communities rejected building the Border WALL of Death because it is part of the escalating Militarization of the US-Mexico borders
The United States-Mexico border communities rejected building the Border WALL of Death because it is a wall of shame…the wall of racism
The United States-Mexico border communities rejected building the Border WALL of Death because it was constructed to make it most difficult for migrants to cross to the United States leaving openings on the wall in the mountains and deserts where thousands of migrants have died
The United States-Mexico border communities rejected building the Border WALL of Death because it is NOT a solution to cross-border problems
The United States-Mexico border communities rejected building the Border WALL of Death because of the billions of money invested in death and separation of families and friends
The United States-Mexico border communities rejected building the Border WALL of Death because it is a violation of human rights of migrants and has a detrimental environmental impact in sensitive areas and eco-systems
Therefore,

SWU proposes the US-Mexico Border WALL of Death should be sold as scrap metal
SWU proposes the US-Mexico Border WALL of Death border policy be turned around to one of friendship and solidarity with Mexico and migrants

SWU proposes the US-Mexico Border WALL of Death budget be dedicated towards cross-border cultural programs and educational exchange programs
SWU proposes the US-Mexico Border WALL of Death or sections be saved for artistic murals that tell the story of the border region and peoples culture and history
SWU proposes the US-Mexico Border WALL of Death policy be turned into a policy of open borders and people to people relations
