Over the past several decades, the vibrant, multiethnic borough of Queens has seen growth in the community of Nepali migrants, many of whom are navigating the challenging bureaucratic process of asylum legalization. Surviving the Sanctuary City: Asylum-Seeking Work in Nepali New York (U Washington Press, 2023) follows them through the institutional spaces of asylum offices, law firms, and human rights agencies to document the labor of seeking asylum.  As an interpreter and a volunteer at a grassroots community center, anthropologist Tina Shrestha has witnessed how migrants must perform a particular kind of suffering that is legible to immigration judges and asylum officers. She demonstrates the lived contradictions asylum seekers face while producing their "suffering testimonials" and traces their attempts to overcome these contradictions through the Nepali notions of kaagaz banaune (making paper) and dukkha (suffering). Surviving the Sanctuary City asks what everyday survival among migrants and asylum seekers can tell us about the cultural logic of suffering within the confines of US borders. Through rich ethnographic detail and careful nuanced narratives, it puts the lives and perspectives of the Nepali migrant community at the center of the story. In so doing, Shrestha offers a fundamental rethinking of asylum seeking as a form of precarious labor and immigration enforcement in a rapidly changing US society. Tina Shrestha is a researcher at the Waseda Institute for Advanced Study, Waseda University.  Reighan Gillam is an Associate Professor in the Department of Latin American, Latino, and Caribbean Studies at Dartmouth College.

We talk to Hassan Akkad, who came to the UK as an asylum seeker from Syria and who earned a BAFTA for his BBC documentary ‘Exodus: Our Journey to Europe', which used real footage from his journey from Syria.  Hassan tells us about his short film, ‘Matar', which tells the story of a day in the life asylum-seeker Matar as he tries to survive in London without being able to work legally or have a bank account.   ‘Matar' stars Ahmed Malek, who recently starred in ‘The Swimmers', the feature film about the Mardini sisters escaping war-torn Syria.  Both superb swimmers, the sisters sought asylum in Germany and Yusra Mardini went on to earn an Olympic gold medal.  Hassan also tells us about projecting his short 90 second message ‘Led by Donkeys' onto the White Cliffs of Dover.  We also talk to Shomit Dutta, who wrote the play ‘Stumped' about an imaginary game of cricket between Harold Pinter and Samuel Beckett, and to Andrew Lancel, who plays Pinter in the play. Who knew that Beckett, played in ‘Stumped' by Stephen Tompkinson, is the only Nobel Prize Winner to have an entry in Wisden?  Shomit and Andrew discuss the joys of cricket and the dramatic opportunities the game offers to explore the friendship between two of the greatest dramatists of our time. ‘Matar' can be viewed free here at Waterbear.com. ‘Stumped' plays at Theatre Royal Bath between 23rd and 27th May, at Cambridge Arts Theatre between 5th and 10th June and finally at the Hampstead Theatre in London between 16th June and the 22nd July.  Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram

How can the asylum seeking process inform U.S. citizens and public discussions about dignity, collaboration, and social change? Utilizing over three years of field work with a group of 48 Central American and Mexican asylum seekers (named Migrantes Unidos), who are committed to ending the use of ankle monitors and other forms of detention in immigration enforcement, Adriano Udani will discuss how the asylum seeking process impacts organizations, social service provision, and everyday life. In the U.S. immigration system that is intentionally designed to punish people through isolation, Adriano Udani argues that what is starkly missing and most needed are opportunities for accompaniment which provides opportunities for asylum seekers to co-pursue dignity, mutual support, opportunities for critical thinking, and collaboration for action. Adriano Udani specializes in the study of political attitudes toward immigrant groups and policy decisions that affect immigrant treatment in the United States. He also studies public misperceptions of immigration enforcement and its impact on immigrant communities. His research is published across various fields of public administration, public policy, public policy, ethics, and race and ethnic politics. Adriano's current work contributes to the emergence of "Civically Engaged Research" in political science, which aims to reciprocally collaborate with people and groups beyond the academy to co-produce, share, and apply knowledge related to power and politics. His current project involves partnering with immigrant service providers, attorneys, and asylum seekers to abolish detention of all forms. Adriano Udani received his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota, and his M.P.A. from the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University.

Twenty years ago ((19 Oct 2001)) hundreds of asylum seekers drowned after a small boat sank, trying to reach Australia from Indonesia. The 2001 tragedy remains subject to claims of a cover-up, while the circumstances around its sinking remain unknown. It happened as the Howard government hardened its stance on asylum-seekers, ahead of a Federal election it was in danger of losing. - На этой неделе отмечается печальная дата - 20 лет со дня, когда сотни людей погибли при крушении небольшой лодки, пытаясь добраться до Австралии с целью попросить убежище. Эта трагедия по-прежнему вызывает предположения о сокрытии фактов, хотя обстоятельства катастрофы остаются неизвестными. Как раз в то время правительство Ховарда ужесточило свою позицию в отношении просителей убежища. А сейчас новое судебное разбирательство может пролить свет на обстоятельства случившегося.

Hai mươi năm trước, vào ngày 19/10/2001, hàng trăm người tầm trú trên một chiếc thuyền nhỏ đã vùi thân nơi biển cả khi cố gắng đến Úc từ Indonesia. Thảm kịch năm 2001 vẫn được cho là có sự che đậy, trong khi hoàn cảnh xung quanh vụ chìm tàu vẫn chưa được biết đến. Vụ việc xảy ra khi chính phủ Howard có lập trường cứng rắn đối với người xin tị nạn, trước một cuộc bầu cử Liên bang mà họ có nguy cơ thua cuộc. Giờ đây một phiên tòa mới có thể sớm làm sáng tỏ hơn những gì đã xảy ra.

An interview with Marie Claire Balaam who submitted a poster presentation to the VIDM 2020 entitled A review of perinatal social support interventions for asylum seeking and refugee women resident in EuropeIn this interview you will learn more about  The presenters Why they chose this topic  The main message of the poster The key findings Where they see this research going.  Visit www.vidm.org for more information on VIDM 2020Abstract In 2018 over 638,000 people applied for asylum in Europe, half of these were women. Asylum seeking and refugee women frequently experience socioeconomic marginalisation, low levels of social support and poor physical and mental health, often exacerbated in the perinatal period, when women struggle to access optimal maternal healthcare.There is a lack of evidence on which interventions are most effective in addressing the needs of asylum and refugee women at this time. In order to fill this gap a Critical Interpretive Synthesis was undertaken. Our findings suggest community befriending interventions may be most effective in supporting asylum seeking and refugee women in this period. There is little evidence that asylum seeking and refugee women have been consulted as to what support would be most useful to them. The involvement of asylum seeking and refugee women in the design of future interventions is paramount in ensuring that their needs are met.

Regardless of political perspective, it is difficult for anyone to grasp the reality or the implications of the Immigration Crisis today. Are there any routes to citizenship? Is a working visa a possibility? Can a person still seek asylum in the US? How many children remain separated from parents? What ever happened to the Dreamers? How many of those in the caravans remain in Mexico? Sarah Rogerson, Clinical Professor of Law at Albany Law School, and Director of the Immigration Law Clinic at Albany Law School returns to Psych Up Live to address these questions and many more. She clarifies what has changed in Asylum Seeking and the access to legal representation. She also shares what has been accomplished and what immigrants and immigration attorneys still face.

The Immigration Crisis continues. Undocumented people are deported, thousands of children remain in detention type settings, families have been separated and in general there is fear and contention over immigration issues. In this show we turn to the expertise of Sarah Rogerson, Clinical Professor of Law at Albany Law School, and Director of the Immigration Law Clinic at Albany Law School, whose work has placed her at the intersections of domestic violence, family law, race, gender, international law and immigration law and policy. Professor Rogerson will clarify immigration law, the obstacles to citizenship, the legal situation of detained parents and separated children and options for unaccompanied children. She will clarify Asylum Seeking, the Credible Fear Interview and how and why those seeking help are in need of legal representation. She will also offer a perspective of the impact of the Immigration Crisis on those like herself stepping forward on the frontline.
