I heard someone use the phrase "overcoming borders" for the first time the other day, in the context of coming to the US w/o papers, & I thought it was really good & I wanted to share it so it's in more people's vocabulary.

Quick life update: I just moved (with Isabella Martin) to Durham, NC, after 3 years MFA-ing & teaching in Baltimore.
