YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDaniel Gonzalez, 59, of Phoenix, was a reporter for multimedia coverage on the border wall that led to The Arizona Republic’s 2018 Pulitzer for explanatory journalism. The coverage helped tell the human side of President Donald Trump’s proposed wall between the United States and Mexico.
“For some, the wall is seen as a concrete barrier needed to keep America safe,” Gonzalez said. “For others, it is a symbol of intolerance and division between two neighbors with a long shared history.
“But what is often lost in the debate are the migrants who attempt to enter the U.S. without authorization and the deadly risks they are willing to take to better their lives by being willing to do jobs that many Americans no longer desire.”
Watch as Gonzalez shares his story in 2020 as part of our "Stories about Stories" show.
