President Trump’s head of Homeland Security has vowed to finish the wall between the U.S. and Mexico by 2019. The wall would span nearly 2,000 miles over desert, mountains and rivers. It’s a forbidding topography that photographer Richard Misrach has been exploring for years. His photos of the borderlands are the subject of book called “Border Cantos,” and he joins Madeleine to discuss.
