It's really difficult not to read this in the style of the Jet2 advert.

Miners trapped underground in South Africa: What’s the latest? Officials have arrested a group of 14 people who emerged unassisted, including a teenage boy.

This capitalist world of nation-states is built on scapegoating people classified as “migrants”

Anti-migrant politics in S. Africa is causing hunger, fear, and death

The possibility of a just future rests on rejecting the distinction between “citizens” and “migrants”
