Friends for Friendship Park received devastating news on July 27 after learning the federal government plans to follow through with building two 30-foot walls across the park.

Friendship Park represents the relationship between the U.S. and Mexico. It's a relationship based on friendship, a place loved ones, separated by the border, could meet.

The continuation of the 30-foot border wall at Friendship Park is truly upsetting, as this space symbolizes the love and connection between families divided by the border. Instead of fostering relationships, this decision seems to create more barriers. It's vital to advocate for places that allow for human connection. In exploring themes of community and understanding, I often find that games like Apostate Verity can provide insights into building relationships in diverse environments, which might inspire us to think about how we can bridge these gaps in real life.

It's heartbreaking to hear that the 30-foot border walls will continue at Friendship Park, a place that symbolizes connection and love between families separated by the border. This decision seems to contradict the very essence of what the park represents. I've often thought about how such barriers affect personal relationships and community ties. It makes me wonder how we can foster more understanding and compassion instead. For those who share this sentiment, there's a community out there focused on bridging gaps, like the one found at SBTI Match.
