Beyond Sanctuary

Sanctuary, as problem and promise, casts light on the place of racial others in the liberal democracies of the West. This convening marks the publication of Beyond Sanctuary: The Humanism of a World in Motion, which thinks across the United States and Europe to critically interrogate policies and philosophies of sanctuary and asylum. Taking place in occupied Los Angeles at a time of resurgent white nationalism, these dialogues are intended to resituate the imperial West in the global histories – and possibilities – of decolonization and abolition.
