This week we are sharing a dope episode from James Stout over at It Could Happen Here, focusing on migrants trying to make their way to the US. --- In the first of 5 episodes, James describes his journey to the Darién Gap in Southern Panama, and the journeys that thousands of migrants take each week on one of the most dangerous land migration routes on earth.
