“It is not easy to capture the depth of adversity, hope, resilience and humanity in the everyday stories of migration and humanitarian compassion at the US-Mexico border. But it is urgent and necessary. Running To Stand Still expertly weaves together the stories of those who risk everything to journey to the border and a community working to welcome them. Their sensitive and heartfelt portrayal of humanity at the border offers a powerful counter-narrative to the forces of hate and exclusion driving the national debate around migration.
These are stories that need to be told.”
