Oof, yep, this one got us, too. If you haven't already, you can sign up for our weekly Message from a Migrant here:
Leave it to @nansenmag's #messagefromamigrant to give you all the feelings. This reminds me of the phenomenon I've heard from so many: they feel more X (American, Turkish, whatever) when in Y country and more Y when they're in X. Identity & belonging are funny things. #migration

Fascinating read by @chrkalter on the half a million white settlers who returned to Portugal from Angola & Mozambique in 1975 & how we might expand the definition of “refugee”. Adding another layer to Portugal’s migration history. via @africasacountry

White settler returnees to Portugal in 1975, and the history of decolonization, can help us understand the complicated category of refugee.

"If we [with 'migration backgrounds'] belong to the victim group, the questioners belong to the perpetrator group. I think we should ask back: "How do you feel about this?" – @FerdaAtaman after #Hanau. https://t.co/jajlwnD1lC

Italicization has too long been "a demarcation between 'exotic' words and those that have a rightful place in the text". Thanks to @mailbykite for this reality check – we will no longer be italicizing "foreign" words in our mag. https://t.co/zl3kWJJOe8

Almost a year since we commissioned those illustrations of @kalaf's biggest influences from Amanda Baeza and we are still absolutely in love with them 😍
Kalaf Epalanga is best known as one of founding MCs of Buraka Som Sistema, a rambunctious music project that burst out of a Lisbon nightclub and onto the global stage in 2006. Meet Kalaf Epalanga in NANSEN Magazine Issue 2. https://t.co/kCg5qY5Ett

I don't know who needs to hear this but: there's nothing wrong with being an economic migrant, and you shouldn't listen to anyone who tries to tell you otherwise. People have always moved for work, family and opportunity, and we always will. 🌏💫

Old but gold. Activists placed signs in busy metro stations in #Brussels in early 2018 to raise awareness on #structural #barriers & #institutional #racism that #migrants face on a daily basis, and challenge the #meritocracy #myth that everyone has the same chance of success
