07:30PM 08:30PM The Burning: Africa's Migrant and Refugee Crisis: Department / Organization: Aquinas Center Speaker/Presenter: Dr. Isabella Alexander Cost: Free Registration / R.S.V.P. link: https://tinyurl.com/y84nbg5u Contact Name: Alice Cameron Contact Email: alice.cameron@emory.edu Link: aquinas.emory.edu The Burning: The Untold Story of Africa's Migrant and Refugee Crisis Speaker: Dr. Isabella Alexander We're in the middle of the largest humanitarian crisis of our time. One in every 112 people in the world is now displaced. Those fleeing conflict and poverty across the African continent make up the largest population of migrants and refugees. THE BURNING will bring their story to life for the first time. ​ Three families. 9,000 miles traveled. One chance to escape. “Hrig,” the Arabic term for “immigration,” translates to “burning.” Many migrants, referred to in North Africa as "burners" or "harragas," burn their identification papers before leaving home, in order to avoid being sent back to their starting points when captured by authorities on their long journeys to Europe. This ritual also symbolizes their decision to burn the past - the only home they have ever known - for the chance of a better future on foreign soil. But what happens when they end up trapped between the the two? Over the past three years, Dr. Isabella Alexander has followed the perilous journeys of three families from their home countries of Mali, Guinea, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo toward the promise of safer shores. She now invites us inside of Africa's migrant and refugee crisis, joining these courageous men, women, and children as they travel thousands of miles along Africa's smuggling routes to the hidden forest camps and detention centers awaiting them just south of Europe's borders in Algeria, Libya, and Morocco. Morocco is less than eight miles from mainland Spain. The two Spanish enclaves that still exist in northern Morocco make it the only African nation to share a land border with Europe. It is the primary crossing point for Africans fleeing political and economic instability across the continent. According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, all citizens of the world are guaranteed the basic right to seek asylum in another country. But over the past decade, the EU has secretly been working against international law to mold Morocco into a permanent holding cell for all African migrations north. Morocco has accepted this agreement in exchange for "development aid." They have banned journalists and aid organizations from the country, as the situation for those trapped there grows more critical. Beaten back at every border and denied their most basic human rights, hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children now find themselves under brutal conditions. The safer shores they risked everything to reach are visible in the distance. + Candler School of Theology, Room 252, 1531 Dickey Drive, Atlanta, GA 30322 Campus Events
