Case Study: The iconic "Friendship Park" in San Diego, CA, at the U.S.-Mexico border, is one of the only places in the world where people in the US and Mexico can see and speak to each other. This piece shows the evolution of this historical place: in 1971, only a thin piece of barbed wire separated the two countries. Today, a pair of massive metal walls stretch into the ocean. With Trump's campaign promise to build a border "wall" we look at one of its closest examples, from both sides of the fence.

Question: After watching the video, discuss your feelings about Friendship Park. Should a wall be built there to make the area more secure or should the park be returned to its original state in which families could visit each other without any fear? What might be some other alternatives? Please include at least one of the sociological theories in your response.
