‘I was shot in the leg back home’: the refugees reviving rural Spain Depopulation can be a serious problem – ultimately, a shrinking community can’t maintain its services. But asylum seekers are bringing ghost villages back to life

Rural homes for refugees: “The Catalan government makes its own assessment of whether people meet the criteria of being refugees without waiting for the official process to be completed, and has devised programmes specifically for these people,” incldn a village spcfcally welcoming queer refugees.

As well as figuring out how to support refugees, we need to figure out how to support locals who are overwhelmed by a changing world, at risk of hardening into hate. Those who are charged with enforcement need extra support to address moral distress and burnout.

A digital illustration from 2024 featuring Marsha P. Johnson, a Black transgender woman and her beautiful flouncy blue dress with a glitzy "Stonewall" prom queen ribbon in purple with silver lettering. She is also wearing a lavender-adorned glittery crown that cascades around her head and down to her neck with long strands of beads and gemstones. "No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us" - Marsha P. Johnson

Happy 80th Birthday Marsha P. Johnson

May your memory always be a bright shining example of fighting for what is right.

"No pride for some of us without liberation for ALL of us!"

And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule of lies. With such a people, you can do whatever you want.

This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore. A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong.
