Though there are moments when the human reality cuts through, as with the shocking picture of Alan Kurdi's body on the beach, for the most part the individual stories are lost amid the hysteria over cutting migrant numbers and shutting the doors of Fortress Europe. Award-winning journalist Hsiao-Hung Pai specializes in communicating poignant human stories that many people find it convenient to keep out ofsight and out of mind. She travels to meet migrants and asylum-seekers who have just been washed up on the shores of Lampedusa or Sicily and have been absorbed into dismal reception camps. While journalists ordinarily pitch up in such places and file their colour pieces before moving on to the next hot topic, Hsiao-Hung follows through, staying in touch with some of those she encounters - many of them children - throughout their journeys: into mainland Italy, to Germany where they face harassment from far-right groups, and to the appalling conditions in the camps on the coast of northwest France--Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Machine generated contents note: 1.Gateway to Europe -- The hidden camp -- The `King of Lampedusa' and the secret pirate -- `Migrants can't sit here' -- Nightmare in Libya -- Impact of trauma -- Sea crossing -- Another day in the camp -- Inside the `Jungle' camp in Calais -- Getting to know Asif, Jahid and Saeed -- Saying farewell -- 2.The business of asylum reception in Sicily -- Palermo's `African Quarter' -- Getting to know Banta -- Pact with the Mafia -- Detour to Agrigento -- A camp in the village -- A second-level camp in Palermo -- Corleone -- Meanwhile in Calais... -- Asif, Jahid and Saeed bid to escape -- Racism's tentacles -- Meanwhile in Britain... -- The children's shelter -- Forgotten teenagers -- 3.Going underground -- Trafficked into the sex trade -- The backstreets of Catania -- Behind the razor wire -- `The camp is an open prison for us' -- `God was all I had' -- Getting to know Adedayo -- Mafia Capitale -- Frustrated love -- Meanwhile in France and Britain... 505 0 $a Note continued: Chasing the dream -- Dire straits -- A plaintive letter -- Naples -- Messages from Sicily -- 4.Northbound -- Meeting Abraham -- Meanwhile in Britain and France... -- `Emergency camp' in Bologna -- Milan and its migrants -- Moving on north -- Getting to know Sirif -- Europe pays Libya to `deal with' migrants -- 5.Ghettoes of Europe -- Segregation in Berlin -- Two asylum shelters -- Meeting an Afghan filmmaker -- Far-right attacks on the rise -- The anti-migrant hub -- Trapped in the system -- Amat, Modou and Banta move on -- 6.Paris Jungle -- Midwinter on the streets of Paris -- Solidarity with migrants -- What next for Jahid and Saeed? -- Children from the Calais camp -- Inside the Dunkirk camp -- The real story behind the fire in Liniere -- New jungles -- Forced labour and desperation -- Asif, Jahid and Saeed: in and out of limbo -- The migrant death toll continues to rise -- to all our shame. 651 0 $a Europe $x Emigration and immigration. 650 0 $a Refugees $z Europe. 651 0 $a Europe $x Boundaries. 650 0 $a Asylum, Right of $z Europe. 941 $a 2 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20190329010150.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190202012348.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5AEEA5E6F79311E8BA923B1497128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
