Sam Ritholtz

Some months ago at the La Terturalia Museum in Cali, I felt the responsibility to get a paper published that contributes to our understanding of what happens when women activists get killed.

Ayyy felicitaciones!!!

For those interested, the report can be found here: docs.un.org/en/A/HRC/59/43

It was a real privilege for me to be in Geneva for the launch of the @iesogi.bsky.social report on LGBTIQ people in situations of displacement at the UN HRC.

I was thrilled to contribute to the report and support the work of the mandate.

We argue that the experiences of queer & trans refugees reveal the cracks in our contemporary migration management systems, as well as how things could be otherwise. The book, therefore, offers new conceptual tools for thinking of marginalized groups as central to our work.

The book follows an imagined journey through displacement (home, persecution, flight, assessment, containment, reunion, and sanctuary) to demonstrate the limits of our current approaches to displacement justice when we consider LGBTIQ displacement as a marginal issue.

The Way Out by Rebecca Buxton, Samuel Ritholtz - Paper Scholarship is a powerful tool for changing how people think, plan, and govern. By giving voice to bright minds and bold ideas, we seek to foster understanding and drive progressive change.

My new book, The Way Out, is available for pre-order!

Written with my co-author @rebeccabuxton.bsky.social, we ask what justice requires for LGBTIQ refugees by centering the lives of queer & trans people experiencing displacement in the political theory of refuge.
