Description

ENG:
Along the southern border of the US and Europe, a long and racist history are perpetuating inhumane violence. Author and Professor from University of Hawaii, Reece Jones, shares some of the history of the United States progression of exclusiomary imigration policies -  equipping our listners with historical contexts and foder for interventions towards systems level change. Iason Apotoloupolos a Alfred Landecker Democracy Fellow and rescuer with Mediterannea recounts the atrocities facing migrants coming from Libya to Europe and the inhumane policies enacted by the EU. He leaves us with the proposition that the threat to any state is not refugees but the mindset that believes they are a threat - how we treat refugees is a measure of our humanity. What this all means for design is for our listners to reflect.

Audio production by Kyle Leve.  Erica Dorn and Hillary Cary interviewed Reece Jones and Sofia Bosch Gomez and Erica Dorn interviewed Iason Apostolopoulos. Silvana Juri and Marysol Ortega Pallanez crafted the Spanish commentary. The production of this podcast was carried out with the support of the School of Design at Carnegie Mellon University.

ESP:
A lo largo de la frontera sur de Estados Unidos y Europa, una larga y racista historia perpetúa la violencia inhumana. El autor y profesor de la Universidad de Hawái, Reece Jones, comparte parte de la historia de la progresión de las políticas de inmigración exclusivas en los Estados Unidos, equipando a nuestros enumeradores con contextos históricos y como fuente de intervenciones para el cambio de nivel de sistemas. Iason Apotoloupolos, Alfred Landecker Democracy Fellow y rescatador de Mediterannea, relata las atrocidades a las que se enfrentan los migrantes que vienen de Libia a Europa y las políticas inhumanas promulgadas por la UE. Nos deja con la propuesta de que la amenaza para cualquier estado no son los refugiados, sino la mentalidad que cree que son una amenaza: cómo tratamos a los refugiados es una medida de nuestra humanidad. Lo que todo esto significa para el diseño es que lo reflejen nuestros anunciantes.
