Delving Deeper: U.S. Border Security's Reach in the Age of "Layered Borders"

In today's world, border security for the United States extends far beyond the physical walls lining its southern frontier. Todd Miller's insightful book, "Empire of Borders," sheds light on this concept of extended U.S. influence, exploring how America spreads its "border wall" far further south than the US-Mexico border. Exploring how the interventionist US foreign policy degrades civil rights, exports violence, and uses ecocide as a weapon.

Miller introduces the idea of "layered borders," a strategy that transcends physical barriers. This approach involves implementing security measures further inland from the immediate U.S. border and fostering close collaboration with partner countries.

One prime example of layered borders is the Mexico-Guatemala border. Here, you won't find a continuous wall, but rather a network of strategically placed checkpoints designed to monitor and deter the flow of immigration. These checkpoints, established with U.S. support and training, act as an invisible fence filtering movement far from the U.S. border itself.

This podcast would delve deeper into the role of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) within this extended security strategy. CBP's involvement extends beyond U.S. soil, with agents and resources deployed to train and collaborate with partner nations' border security forces. This international cooperation serves to magnify the reach of U.S. border enforcement efforts, creating a complex web of security measures that stretches far beyond the physical U.S.-Mexico border.

Dissecting infringements on national sovereignty and the ethical implications of extending U.S. control over foreign borders, this episode will expand the borders of your mind beyond what you once knew about the border. Even challenging the basic philosophy and ideology behind border walls and the justification of violence by manufactured legalities.
