Arms Along the Border Oral History Project

This collection features interviews with residents of the Texas-Mexico border, specifically in the Big Bend area. Many of the interviewees discuss the killing of 18 year old Esequivel Hernandez Jr., who was shot by US Marines patrolling the border area for drug-related incidents, and the event was very controversial for many of the residents in the area.
