{"product_id":"bearing-witness-humanitarian-stories-from-the-arizona-borderlands","title":"BEARING WITNESS: HUMANITARIAN STORIES FROM THE ARIZONA BORDERLANDS","description":"Bearing Witness: Humanitarian Stories from the Arizona Borderlands is a moving collection of more than fifty true stories from the Southern Arizona borderlands, offering firsthand accounts of compassion, courage, and human connection amid the realities of migration.\nAlong the desert corridors of Arizona, humanitarian volunteers meet migrants at the most fragile moments of their journeys—providing water, care, advocacy, and presence in a harsh landscape shaped by both hope and hardship. These personal stories are written by volunteers who accompany migrants in the desert, in shelters, in federal immigration court, in immigrant detention centers, and at the U.S.–Mexico border wall.\nThese accounts honor the migrants whose journeys continue long after each brief encounter, as well as the volunteers whose lives have been deeply changed by serving at the border. Together, the stories reveal a community shaped by migration—its challenges, its resilience, and its deep commitments to compassion, justice, and faith-in-action. Woven throughout is the leadership of a local pastor whose example inspired others to welcome the stranger.\nReflective, powerful, and grounded in lived experience, Bearing Witness invites readers to look beyond headlines and statistics and encounter the human stories at the heart of the immigration crisis. It is a testament to the power of presence—and an invitation to respond with understanding, empathy, and action.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0GL4FG4YJ\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0GL4FG4YJ.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Frank, Gail|Curtis, Ellen|Kleckner, Deanna|Babcock, Kathy|Menzel, LJ Correll|Aglione, Connie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
