This Episode is in Dutch In gesprek over de verzonnen ‘asielcrisis’ en de consequenties voor migranten en vluchtelingen in Nederland. De afgelopen decennia zijn we getuige geweest van stelselmatige ontmenselijking van vluchtelingen en migranten, dit in combinatie met de opkomst van extreemrechts. Tijdens dit programma reflecteren we op de impact van dit racisme tegen vluchtelingen en migranten en hoe dit zich heeft vertaald in het steeds strenger wordende grensbeleid. Een beleidsregime waarin inmiddels gevangenschap, deportatie, overhoring, bureaucratisch geweld en stigmatisering richting nieuwkomers volledig genormaliseerd is. Wij zien dat sinds de invoering van de koppelingswet mensen zonder papieren volledig buitengesloten zijn van de samenleving middels paspoort apartheid. Tijdens dit programma reflecteren we dieper op de ervaringen van ongedocumenteerde mensen en asielzoekers in Nederland. We kijken naar de opkomst van extreemrechts in Nederland en Europa en hoe dit zich vertaalt in beleidsvoorstellen tot aan de afgeroepen ‘asielcrisis’ toe en dreiging van een noodwet. Welke impact heeft dit op mensenrechten en de rechtsstaat in het perspectief van de grondwet en internationale verdragen? Wij gaan in gesprek met advocaten, mensenrechtenorganisaties, politici en activisten. Door persoonlijke omstandigheden kunnen Mpanzu en Saied niet meer mee doen aan het programma! https://youtu.be/NhNPqpaOnZ4?si=aHzsoGU8BXNndlLE https://dezwijger.nl/

The struggle for freedom has entwined the fight against imperialism with the fight to end women's oppression. Imperialism frequently reinforces patriarchal structures and exacerbates gender disparities. The cultural standards enforced by colonial powers serve to strengthen systems of oppression that victimize women. In this episode, we discuss how to achieve liberation, strive to remove women's oppression and demolish imperialism.
