New article out from our team member Mikkel Rytter with valuable insights about the so-called “paradigm shift” in Danish refugee policy in 2019.

"Ausländer raus" by the second largest party SD in Sweden. The parlamentarian David Lång who was caught on camera then tried to take the journalist's mobile phone. SD's party leader currently avoids to speak to any journalist about their party member's Nazi statement.
Words matter. 200 Palestinians "died". This is Swedish journalism, that creates narratives, discourse and reality. What if the roles were reversed? "200 Israelies died" - would it still be a small side note?

Historic!
The Palestinian flag waves proudly over the national parliament of Ireland in Dublin.
Ireland has officially recognized the State of Palestine.

The student organized Palestine camp outside of Lund university is being brutally hit and sanitized... sorry, being "evacuated" by the Swedish police. No more camps will be allowed there - official stance by the police.
Det vi ser i videon är alltså hur den fredfulla studentprotesten i Palestinagård (Lund) i solidaritet med det palestinska folkets kamp för att få (över)leva blir våldsamt attackerade av polisen. Just nu.

German university students bravely chanted in support of Palestine in the face of the police which kept suppressing their peaceful protests.
Those little and yet big words that actually direct our attention to who is doing violence against whom. On a daily basis. Small words matter in building our perspective and narrative of world.

Week 299. Malmö says NO to genocide! People from all over Sweden are gathering in Malmö this week, where Eurovision is taking place, to protest against Israel’s participation in the competition and to demand a #FreePalestine and #CeasefireNow ! Yesterday we were tens of thousands people flooding the streets of Malmö. We will not accept that a country currently committing genocide is allowed a platform to artwash themselves. The world cannot remain silent in a genocide. Everyone who can must use their voice and speak up against Israel’s crimes and occupation.

Potently beautiful tribute to the scholarship of Nadera Shalhoub-Kervorkian as a living archive of Palestinian resistance

Höjden av vidrigheter - mitt i ett folkmord hylla och stötta den israelitiska statens och militärens fascism. Bojkotta Carrefour #BDSMovement #FreePalenstine
While Israel continues its genocidal aggression against Palestinians in occupied and besieged Gaza and uses starvation as a weapon of war, Carrefour-Israel provided thousands of packages to Israeli soldiers while they participated in the #GazaGenocide.
