Ajo is a beautiful small community in the land of the Tohono O’odham people, previously known as Mexico and now known as southern Arizona.
There are no real “borders” there – natural or man made – as the desert and the 3 nations work and live as one, while each maintains its own distinct identities and culture.
It was my winter home for 7 years.
Given the Trump Fascist Regime’s (TFR) militarization, repression, concentration camps, deportation, and tariffs (which greatly expands decades of prior repressive projects), we thought we’d repost some real voices and views from the place:
I travelled the border region for 7 years, from Big Bend Texas to San Diego, California. Here are some prior posts and lovely photos:
