What is Give Over?
Give Over is part of Opus Independents, and is a project that uses border abolition as a way to reframe media reporting of refugees and immigration more broadly. Give Over uses varying formats to disseminate border abolition, and to apply abolitionist frameworks when examining racist and white supremacist narratives in journalism.
