In these captivating, compelling, sometimes tragic, yet always uplifting tales of humanityfrom the borderlands, host Sarah Towle, author of Crossing the Line: Finding America in the Borderlands, spotlights the extraordinary efforts of ordinary heroes to tear down the walls that divide us.

It’s David meets Goliath in the age of global apartheid. But can the monster be slain this time?

Global nomad and ally to all, Sarah believes that “if you knew, you’d be outraged too!” Her tales of humanity from borderlands, worldwide, lift up the heroes still flying the tattered flag of values espoused in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights — folks who show us, every day, that there is a better way. That we can welcome with dignity. That cruelty is not okay.
