We are very excited to announce that the next Tertulia Migrante book will be Harsha Walia’s Undoing Border Imperialism (AK Press, 2013). The book combines academic discourse, lived experiences of displacement, and movement-based practices inspired by No One is Illegal. Walia reformulates immigrant rights movements within a transnational analysis of capitalism, labor exploitation, settler colonialism, state-building, and racialized empire to provide the alternative conceptual frameworks of border imperialism and decolonization. At its heart, the book wrestles with the question of how we build movements that address the immediate material needs of migrants (such as finding pathways to citizenship), while also building a broader anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist analysis which upholds indigenous sovereignty and challenges ideas about nation-states, borders, and legality. Needless to say, it is an immensely thought-provoking book, which really aligns with MRM’s analysis.
