Victims of violence are being dehumanized, politicized. Politicians are taking advantage to gain votes. We need to reset the language.

An analysis of 30 years of data from 15 countries in Europe finds that a few years following a spike in migration, host nations’ economies improve & unemployment rates drop, discrediting the notion that migrants & refugees are a financial burden. https://t.co/ucrDsyRlG7

The coast of Libya once again became a deadly trap for over 220 people who were escaping the horrors of war, the scourge of poverty or the hopelessness of detention. Mourning them. https://t.co/xHrJA1Taa4
