Tenth episode of #CrossingtheAegean is out! In this episode, we continue with “Stories from the Inheritors of the Exchange” by hearing from individuals who have family members
Even in death, our differences continue to separate us as is visible at the ‘Memorial to Humanity’ cemetery for victims of border policies in Lesvos
In 2018, while migrants peacefully protested the dismal conditions of Moria, a mob of violent local residents attacked the protestors, while police stood by. But today, 21 of them were convicted.
The children of the world deserve freedom and dignity, but war and violent border policies stand in the way

Despite the acquittal verdict of 21 May and contrary to the court’s decision, the Pylos 9 – who seeked asylum in Greece – remain until today behind bars because the Greek police vengefully ordered their administrative detention.
Greek courts continue to criminalize people on the move including the nine unjustly accused survivors of the horrible Adriana shipwreck in the Aegean Sea
Greek authorities are trying to conceal the events of the Adriana shipwreck—we must stand in solidarity with the Pylos 9!
We demand the immediate acquittal, release and proper treatment and support of the victims as well as an independent investigation of the events
Sometimes sitting in the courthouse in the belly of the beast feels useless, but we can smile and we can support and we will always stand in solidarity
