“Gaza is a turning point that lays bare the full range and cruel depths of the contemporary world’s contradictions ... It exposes what is fundamentally wrong today: a persistent inability to recognize every human being as equal and deserving of dignity and life.”

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...

Opinion | To Understand Global Migration, You Have to See It First These estimates, drawn from the location data of three billion Facebook users, provide a view of human migration in extraordinary detail.

I really like this new NYT visualization of migration in and outflow based on Facebook data www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Some comments here that read like “it’s one thing to send foreigners to concentration camps but native US citizens is a step too much” also reveal something about what is wrong

From France to Mali, a deportee's struggle far from home Hundreds of foreign nationals previously protected because they grew up in France now face expulsion under legislation introduced last year.

What do the calls for deportations mean for the lives of those affected? We need more of this kind of reporting
