Excited to share my @latimes Op-Ed on my research, the effects of border externalization, and why the U.S. shouldn't follow Europe’s failed approach. latimes.com/opinion/story/… @latimesopinion

Scholars, journalists, and migration experts including @JeremyKonyndyk @sallyhayd @SaChellali @AhlamChemlali @EliziaVolkmann @NoeNicholas & @hrw have raised alarm on Tunisia's violence against Black migrants & refugees, & the EU's subsidising of its violations, since Spring 2023.

Every major EU 🇪🇺 government—even Italy’s—is well aware that Black migrants & refugees aren’t safe in Tunisia 🇹🇳. Many even know Saied’s forces routinely rape & torture them. The problem is that EU *citizens* voting for anti-migration governments either don’t know or don’t care.



Proud to play a part in this important new documentary and to share my research findings with a global audience. A powerful reminder of why taking our research beyond academic circles truly matters. Check it out!

People abducted on the street for being black, pregnant women & children left to die in the desert Deserted, Europe’s Deadly Migration Policy, a documentary produced by @LHreports @BR_presse @ndr @DeutscheWelle, reveals the deadly realities of Brussels’ migration deals



Looking forward to joining @Georgetown @ccasGU later today for a film screening and discussion of the documentary 'En Route to Europe, We Burn or Die'. Join us via Zoom georgetown.edu/event/film-scr… @jakobplaschke

Jeg forstår ikke hvorfor Israels militær bliver ved med at være hovedkilde på historier om de krigsforbrydelser de selv begår. På @DRNyheder's temaside ligger der pt fire historier, lagt op indefor under fire timer, som er direkte videreformidling af israelske udtalelser.

Important and timely study, not least because the conditions for a permanent, escalating and manufactured “crisis” are seemingly well in place: more migrants and refugees are moving towards Tunisia and North & North-West Africa from collapsing states and conflicts that have no…

Tens of thousands of Black refugees & migrants are being rounded up across North Africa & dumped in the desert & remote areas, sometimes left for dead These operations are secretly financed with European money, despite regional and EU denials 🧵

A year ago today, we kicked off the @HopeBorder 2023 Spring Academy in #ElPaso right as #Title42 was being phased out. We've been busy these months reflecting on how protection in the context of migration looks like from the borderlands. Watch this space for news real soon!

Spoke with @AJEnglish on how refugees and migrants fleeing from war, conflict and corrupt gov's are ending up trapped in Tunisia, unable to move on or return home. An intended consequence of EU externalization I argue. @IgnitionUK @meddeb_hamza @diisdk aljazeera.com/news/2024/5/10…

Tunisia: The migration trap

Asylum seekers from across Africa are becoming stranded, unable to return home and persecuted by authorities.
