The act was […]

I start reading. One […]

Update from the border

Medialny zgiełk i nagonka na migrantów trwa w najlepsze, my robimy swoje. To już nasze czwarte lato na Podlasiu, ale skłamalibyśmy pisząc, że nigdy nie spodziewaliśmy się tego, że potrwa to tak długo. W rzeczywistości, w 2021 roku, kiedy wydarzył się Usnarz i ruszył wschodni szlak powiedzieliśmy sobie jedną rzecz – Polska wyszła ze swojej […]

Border in a new political reality

For several weeks now, Poland has been ruled by a ‘democratic’ government, i.e. one that is obedient to the European Commission. Immediately after the formation of the government, Donald Tusk went to Brussels to report on the task at hand and to collect his gratification – the funds earmarked for Poland, which had been suspended […]

Podróż / Travel # 1

M. poznał*m na kursie niemieckiego w Berlinie. Jego historię dostawał*m w kawałkach, kiedy spotykaliśmy się na naukę przed testem, albo wracaliśmy po kursie – ja do domu, on do obozu. Zakochiwał*m się w tej historii, chociaż nie jest w żaden sposób wyjątkowa: nie tak dramatyczna, jak reportaże w polskich mediach liberalno-lewicowych, chwilami zbyt bliska stereotypowym […]

Granice zewnętrzne UE wraz z ich ekstremalnymi środkami bezpieczeństwa wprowadziły granice z epoki kolonialnej, które podtrzymują ideały „Twierdzy Europa” kosztem życia migrantów i uchodźców. Od dwóch lat w Polsce mierzymy się z nowo otwartym szlakiem migracyjnym, który jest tak naprawdę tylko kalką, tego co dzieje się od wielu lat w innych rejonach. Jesteśmy tego świadomi […]
