Borderlines of Memory and Resilience | Winston–Salem News

Through the Natividad family’s generations-long story, this episode traces the U.S.-Mexico border’s ever-shifting lines — from lands claimed by four nations to today’s contested frontier. Their ancestor Juan Velarde lived through that chaos, and today’s Nicholas Natividad studies how Mexican American and Indigenous communities have preserved their heritage despite constant boundary redraws. It’s a powerful tale of resilience, cultural endurance, and the deep ties people hold to land — especially as the U.S. nears its 250th birthday.
