The US-Mexico border is many things: a divisive political fact, a total fiction, home to many Latinx people and an arena of major cultural influence. For today’s episode, we take a look at some of the music that has arisen from this part of the country, and the social and political forces that influence life and art in this liminal space.

Featuring music by Gaytan y Cantu, Los Tigres del Norte, Freddy Fender, Selena, Chalino Sanchez, Ariel Camacho y Los Plebes del Rancho, Natanael Cano, Bad Bunny, Los Tremendos Gavilanes.
