Don’t miss our interview with @BlochOfra! Details below!
My article is on C19 Belize but the story is familiar. In response to a movement of people fleeing conflicts and crossing the border, British authorities used humanitarian language around protection & asylum to consolidate white settler colonialism and expansion of imperial rule https://twitter.com/TheDocketLHR/status/1378089384482893824

Several questions posed again about the intersection of linguistics, legal force and legitimacy, and legal spaces.
Where could further exploration of the intersection between them take the historiography in the near future? Comment below! #ASLH2020 #twitterstorians
Professor Yannakakis: possession of land matters in legal terms up until conflict between claimants arise. Then, titles to land take on legal force. A "continuum," not a dichotomy of legal ownership. #ASLH2020 #twitterstorians
