Crossing the Chasm

Welcome to another episode of Crossing the Chasm. On today’s episode, I am joined by Todd Miller, a writer and reporter who has covered border issues and migration for over 15 years. His work has appeared in many newspapers and magazines, including the New York Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, the Nation, and Guernica among others. Todd has written four books, including Storming the Wall, which heavily influenced our discussion. Todd writes a weekly post for the Border Chronicle and brings a unique perspective to this increasingly important issue. I hope you enjoy the conversation!

What is Crossing the Chasm?

Crossing the Chasm explores why we are so disconnected/what does connection mean and how can we become mobilized to create change for ecological and human flourishing. Episodes explore topics related to this theme by diagnosing problems but then put forth alternative visions for our society. The show explores and ultimately intends to overcome the chasm that divides where we are from where we want to go. In short, the podcast seeks to create connection by envisioning a better world.
