Signal #1 – Writings on the Freedom of Movement

Spring 2015

During the last few years, the problems inherent in European immigration and asylum policy have given rise to a heated debate. The political movements initiated by migrants themselves, which are gaining in intensity throughout Europe, have made the biggest contribution of all to the wider acknowledgement of these problems.

Signal collects information on the experience of migrants and their political struggles. In the articles and images of this publication, artists, activists, and researchers share their knowledge of the situation faced by migrants in Finland and in the EU.This is a part of a project called 9 Gatherings, a collaboration between Free Movement Network and the Kiila Association of Writers and Artists. It is funded by the Ministry of Education and Culture. This project creates new relationships between residents and those foreigners that are living in precarious conditions.

Demonstration against the wall on the Serbian-Hungarian border

14 of July, 2015, Nyugati square, Budapest

While the wall is in direct opposition with the ideas, enshrined in the UN Convention relating to the Status of Refugees, which seeks to protect those fleeing persecution in their own country, we oppose the wall, as it is the extreme embodiment of the principles of the restrictive EU migration policies. While valid travel documents are required to enter “legally” into the EU, and these documents are virtually impossible to obtain for most of the people born in Africa, Asia, people have no choice but to travel “illegally”. The European migration policy thus creates illegality, but then also builds walls and erects border in order to supposedly “fight illegal migration” – the very illegality of which it has produced through its legislation and policy. We are opposing this wall because we believe border controls are injust, freedom of movement and settlement is everybody’s right and no human being should ever be declared “illegal”.

No human being is illegal! Freedom of movement for all! Documents for all, or all without documents! Solidarity with migrants everywhere!

#SenseMordasses / Concentra-Acció!

I tot i que volen prohibir les nostres formes de protesta, amenaçant-nos amb penes i multes injustes i desproporcionades, no deixarem d’aturar desnonaments, ocupar seus d’entitats bancàries, fer escraches, gravar actuacions policials abusives, denunciar les batudes racistes i les devolucions en calent, etc.

La repressió no ens aturarà. Front l’ ofensiva repressiva de l’Estat, respondrem lluitant, desobeint massivament, defensant-nos col·lectivament als carrers, a les xarxes i arreu, intensificant l’autoorganització popular i els mecanismes de suport mutu i solidaritat. Si ens hi retrobem i ens fem costat, no hi haurà mordassa que ens faci callar.

NI SOLES NI EMMORDASSADES! DESOBEÏM JUNTES! SURT AL CARRER I ESTRIPA LA MORDASSA!
