An interview with Tania Avalos, the wife and mother of Oscar and Valeria Avalos, who were found dead on the banks of the Rio Grande at the Mexico-United States border. Avalos and her family fled rampant violence and poverty in El Salvador and were seeking asylum in the United States. When a gang demanded a large sum of money for the group to continue their journey, they had to decide whether or not to push forward. They chose to attempt to cross the river, 50 yards wide, though they were unable to swim due to rough conditions. The image of Oscar and Valeria became the symbol of the crisis at the border and prompted a rushed funding package from Congress to address conditions at facilities at the border. However, in the months since, no additional legislation has passed and an additional 52 migrant bodies have washed up on the riverbank. Avalos says her family was only looking for a better life.
