In the organizer's words:

To this day, European migration policy is characterized by colonial continuities. The deaths at Europe's external borders and the high number of refugees in prisons bear witness to this legacy.

The right to freedom of movement remains a privilege of individuals, as migration is still criminalized. Refugees are in prison everywhere - on Crete there are over a hundred young people from Sudan. The only accusation: they entered the EU illegally and are said to have helped other people to flee. Together, we oppose criminalization and stand up for the right to freedom of movement. With the Freedom of Movement Fund, medico international and de:criminalize support refugees who are unlawfully detained or have to defend themselves legally.

The work of the fund is the starting point for the event, which is looking for new forms of solidarity - in view of the social shift in rights within society and the increasing disenfranchisement of refugees at Europe's external borders. It also looks back into history to reveal colonial continuities.

We bring activists to the stage who have overcome the walls of Europe and are fighting for the right to freedom of movement, scientists who shed light on the continuities of colonial practices and supporters in solidarity. With performance, film and music.

After the screening, it's off to the Buttclub St. Pauli for the MASTIKA SOUNDS MEETS FUNDS FOR FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT - SOLIP PARTY! Admission from 22:30.
