A year and a half into his term, with only a few prototype segments erected, the wall is the 2,000-mile multibillion-dollar elephant in the room of contemporary American life. In The Great Great Wall, architectural historian and critic Ian Volner takes a deep dive into the story of Trump's wall. Volner follows the conception, selling, design, and construction (or lack thereof) of this expensive and consequential barrier, giving listeners a detailed description of what's happening in Washington, DC-and along the border. He also travels far afield, to China, the Middle East, northern England, and back to our border to examine the barriers we've been building for centuries. Why do we build walls? What do they reveal about human history? 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Boundaries|xPsychological aspects. 650 0 Noncitizens|xGovernment policy|zUnited States. 650 0 Border security|zMexican-American Border Region. 650 9 Illegal immigration|xGovernment policy|zUnited States. 651 0 Mexican-American Border Region|xEmigration and immigration. 651 0 United States|xEmigration and immigration|xGovernment policy. 690 7 Undocumented immigration|xGovernment policy|zUnited States.|2local DEI term 700 1 Cross, Pete|c(Actor),|enarrator. 730 0 hoopla (Digital media service) 914 MWT12382060 947 MARCIVE Processed 2022/11/04
