This is the last part to the borderlands episode featuring Tohono O'odham Hemajkam Rights Network (TOHRN). Two members of the group, Amy Juan, and Nellie Jo David, had the opportunity to travel to Palestine with the World Without Walls delegation in 2017. Their purpose to making the journey was to listen and learn about how Palestinians are impacted by the Israeli Apartheid Wall. The simliar connections to a border wall and living in a militarized community can be easily linked to what border communities in Southern Arizona are dealing with. These two O'odham women also had the opportunity to share about how Tohono O'odham and our lands have been affected by border issues. Tune in to more about what the experience was like and how it inspired them to continue doing the work they do in regards to community and border issues on the Tohono O'odham Nation.
