WHAT DOES “BUILD THAT WALL” REALLY MEAN?



A Journalism 360° project grant funded this amazing USA today VR augmented reality hybrid report.  You are immersed in the full story of “the wall” along the US & Mexico border. They used 30 reporters and photographers for less bias.  Thru podcasts they share firsthand what they experienced while working on the story.   Using the interactive map and a simulated flight you see the terrain along the path of the wall for yourself.  I watched videos and heard from the ranchers, patrol officers, vigilantes, and immigrants, affected by the wall on both sides. The legal aspects to build the wall are huge. Terrance Garrett said, "It's really a thicket, if you will, of all kinds of legal problems. We are looking at years, decades, of court cases."  This article was an experience and really helped me understand the issue.  Check it out.  There is even a VR version of this report on Vive VR system!
