On this episode of West Texas Talk, we hear from Gabriel Diaz Montemayor. He’s an assistant professor of landscape architecture at the University of Texas at Austin. Recently, Montemayor wrote an editorial calling for a revitalization of the border's landscape. He argues this could lead to increased security and would provide benefits to both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border.
