Episode description

Did you know that $1.5M dollars in trade cross the US/Mexico border every single minute?  Did you know that 5 million US jobs depend on the trade that takes place there?  Ambassador Tony Wayne explains that the border is a living membrane and trust is the crux of managing conflicting interests and mutual challenges.  Lethal synthetic drugs are very small!  How do you intercept them on their way north?  And how do you stop the transfer of deadly weapons to the south?  And human lives – people around the entire world are on the move, and where do many land?  On the US/Mexico border.  Ambassador Wayne helps us understand this complex place.  Part one of two.
