Hope it's clear to everyone what this is and means, and where we are heading to. In the 1930s, many people preferred to pretend that nothing was going on, and we all know how it ended.

I wrote a long piece at @inkstickmedia.com about the situation for refugees on Greece's Chios island, the way the journey they take has become more dangerous & violent since 2015, & how border violence/deterrence has failed to stop people from risking the crossing: inkstickmedia.com/after-greece...

{1/3} Hi all! I’m a researcher interested in migration, borders & social harm. My research explores the continuum of border violence, neglect & abandonment across time and space in Greece & Lesvos. It unearths overlooked forms of border violence as well as resilience and resistance to borders.
