Climate Migration

The IPCC predicts there will be as many as 1.2 billion climate migrants by 2050 if we do not course correct, meaning that climate change knows no borders—and neither should we.

The Sound of Solidarity

The Sound of Solidarity

The Sound of Solidarity “Al-Hara” means neighborhood in Arabic, but Radio Alhara’s community isn’t defined by any geographic boundary. Amid COVID lockdowns and the Israeli occupation of Palestine, the station’s blend of music and political activism became essential—both globally and locally—as a beacon for collectivism and self-determination.

The Other Side of Disaster Climate catastrophe is not just one event—it’s a force that reverberates. This has been the heartbreaking reality for Nicaragua’s Miskito communities, many of whom are seeking refuge north after Hurricanes Eta and Iota hit in 2020.

Safe Passage Over the last six years, more than 15,000 refugees have perished while traversing the Mediterranean Sea, seeking safety on foreign shores. Search-and-rescue operation SOS Mediterranée saves countless lives—but thanks to a pandemic and political standoffs, ships like the Ocean Viking are sitting empty at port.

Purification by Love

Purification by Love

Purification by Love “Thinking about love has been a cure to my wounded soul throughout the years that I’ve been in this prison,” says Behrouz Boochani. “To me, love is the only shared language among people of the world—it’s what we all desire and what gives our being a purpose and meaning. And that is what has been taken away from us in Manus and Nauru: We’ve been denied the right to love and to be loved back.” After being forced to flee the oppressive political situation in Iran, and leave behind his war-weary Kurdish homeland, Boochani was intercepted in Australian waters while seeking asylum by boat in 2013. His first attempt to reach Australia failed and he nearly drowned; he made a second dangerous journey from Indonesia and was picked up by a British tanker after being lost at sea for a week. Passengers were then transferred to the Australian Navy and detained—he has been trapped on Manus Island ever since. While there, he has managed to release an award-winning and critically-acclaimed book, along with nearly one-hundred articles and even a documentary film from the island. Here, Boochani reflects on that which has helped him resist the violence of the prison system—and find freedom within.
