Description

Dr. Jason de León, professor of Anthropology at UCLA, talks to us about the Undocumented Migration Project (UMP), a long-term study of clandestine border crossing that uses a combination of ethnographic, archaeological, visual, and forensic approaches to understand this phenomenon in a variety of geographic contexts including the Sonoran Desert of Southern Arizona, Northern Mexican border towns, and the southern Mexico/Guatemala border. Within the UMP, we discussed Hostile Terrain 94 (HT94), a participatory art project.
