Mauritania 🇲🇷 🆘
Over 200 Gambians are locked up in a warehouse off the border of Mauritania and Senegal. They were captured at sea by the Mauritanian navy acting with the help of EU financial and technical support.
They have been here for ten days with little to eat. @IOMMauritania doesn’t move a toe to help them. Embassy says they have no resources to facilitate their return.
New Libya and Tunisia in the making!!!

Great, thoughtful review by @memomiller of @jbwashing's "The Case for Open Borders." #violentborders #gloablapartheid #migrantswelcome #nowalls @NACLA https://t.co/0vc3JyVzsC
12/ Black Lives Matter protests went global in a matter of days. Ukrainian refugees have been welcomed and housed across Europe. Could the same happen for refugees after atrocities in the Mediterranean? Greeks are out in tens of thousands #ViolentBorders https://t.co/IrrRFsM42B

11/ Great thread. Applies equally to the #ViolentBorders US-Mexico, India-Bangladesh (worlds longest militarized fence ~3500km), and others. https://t.co/GlUu0KII4i

74% of Arizona's water use is 4 irrigated agriculture--much of it in semiarid or desert areas. Now Arizona wants 2 spend billions & expend tons of energy to import water from Mexico. #globalpartheid-#violentborders-#environmentalinjustice at work. . .

Are people fully aware of the violence of UK Government's exclusionary immigration policies/rules and practice (part of #violentborders) that cause unnecessary suffering to our fellow members of society who are pushed to live in the margins? Undocumented people are #HumanLikeYou
This "backlog" is the not-so-silent violence of #globalapartheid and its #violentborders. There is only one way to stop the carnage: freedom of movement for all. #Right2theWorld https://t.co/TRdfL2I6aH
And: “If destination countries wish truly to stop arrivals, they will need to become monstrous. The rise of fascist politicians in the wealthy west is a sign of this choice beginning to make itself clear.” #violentborders #right2theworld #migrantswelcome
“It’s feeling like it felt during border wall construction with Trump.” #nowalls #violentborders #globalapartheid https://t.co/4PZqPg63KB by @rdevro
@memomiller It's disgusting to see how @cochetel and @refugees (the UNHCR) more broadly accepts the logic of nation-states and their regimes of border policing and exclusion. They only decry symptoms, not the disease of #violentborders and #globalapartheid.

Here's my take on the responsibility of U.S. policy for the deaths of 53 human beings--illegalized border crossers--in #SanAntonio last month. #violentborders #globalapartheid #right2theworld #nowalls #RefugeesWelcome @nacla @DHSgov https://t.co/qNGIMLAmFU via @ConversationUS
While in Spain can #NATO also put #migrants on the agenda? Clearly migration is deadly globally in Texas or Mellila. Wss it on the agenda of the G7 too? #ViolentBorders #visaviolence
This horrific story should be first and foremost about #globalapartheid & how the US border policing apparatus inevitably kills people. Instead, you can be sure that the state and media focus will be on the smuggler. #Right2theWorld #violentborders https://t.co/4f8Sd6knv2
@ECPR_TheLoop @PolicyxDesign @ReeceJonesUH thank you for your work - the term violent borders in our essay was meant to tag your book

@VersoBooks #violentborders
There are mass killings by people w/ guns & mass killings by people who build & maintain #violentborders in the name of national sovereignty. Both are equally abhorrent. Fighting both must be central to the struggle 4 a world of justice and peace for all. https://t.co/Y4kzPbwu8D
Border walls kill and maim. Whether physical or virtual, they embody violence of multiple sorts. #globalapartheid #violentborders #right2theworld #migrantswelcome #refugeeswelcome https://t.co/lYxT9cAsJl
Researching violence presents practical and ethical challenges for academics. Working w/ @avichetri to visualise this qualitative research has been a great experience for @J_Obradovic_W @Isakjee and I. The film is made in solidarity with people impacted by #violentborders. [7/9]

43/ Europe is FortressEU & #ViolentBorders. More walls have been built in Europe since the Berlin Wall fell than WW2-1989. In last 6y,EU spent €2 Billion on fences & border patrols
With war in Europe,will it change refugee policy?

The European Union's generous response to refugees from Ukraine shows that another way is possible. It contrasts with the xenophobic cruelty extended to refugees from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. It should be new the standard response. https://t.co/gU8zJoa51k
El humorista sudafricano Noah Trevor explica bien claro el Racismo europeo aplicado a los refugiados.
