Illustrating new resistance strategies and mobilisations, this
volume examines how EU citizens and refugee populations in Germany
have opposed asylum policies and coped with hostile migration
regimes. Taking as her starting point occupations of a Berlin
square in 2012, the author weaves an auto-ethnographic account of
her own involvement in solidarity and refugee resistance groups
with archival examinations of various strategies. The book analyzes
how activism is sustained in multiple ways: media solidarity groups
challenge mainstream depictions; radio shows attempt to decolonize
the media and resist the category of 'refugee'; a group of women
comprised of migrants and asylum-seekers publish their accounts;
solidarity groups help migrants to find temporary housing;
campaigns align with existing groups or engage with political
conversations more broadly to challenge populism, racism, and
anti-migrant sentiment. As she bridges practical solidarity, media
activism, and other strategies, Fazila Bhimji builds a framework to
show how these tactics interrelate, interrogating specifically if
the fragmentation of strategies limits anti-racist struggles, or
whether providing manifold outlets for a collective struggle helps
to build solidarity.
