This month, No One Is Illegal Radio contributes to CKUT's special
programming for Prisoner Justice Day, with a focus on immigration and
detention. This month's show includes recorded presentations and
interviews with:
--> ARASH ASLANI: Arash, a refugee from Iran, was a detainee at the
Laval Immigration Prevention Center near Montreal for 10 months. He
speaks out about the conditions at the detention center, and his
experiences as a migrant in Europe and Canada. At any one time, there
can be upwards of 100 detainees at the Laval Immigration Prevention
Center. Arash continues his struggle for status in Canada.
The full recorded presentation by Arash is available at:

--> TERESA HAYTER: Teresa is an activist and writer based in England.
She is the author of "Open Borders: The Case Against Immigration
Controls" (Pluto Press 2004), and has been an organizer of the
Campaign to Close Campsfield (an immigration detention center near
Oxford, England) for over a decade. Teresa speaks about current
campaigns against detention in Britain, and the case for abolishing
all detentions centers (as well as the inherently racist nature of all
immigration controls).
More info about the Campaign to Close Campsfield, and anti-detention
struggles in Britain is available at:

--> AARTI SHAHANI: Aarti is an immigrant rights organizer based in New
York City. She is the co-founder of Families for Freedom, a
multi-ethnic defence network by and for immigrants facing and fighting
deportation, comprised of immigrant prisoners, former immigrant
prisoners, their loved ones and individuals at risk of deportation.
Aarti speaks about current campaigns against detentions and
deportations in the United States.
