Description
Please join the Global Education Network for a presentation and dialogue 
with Montreal-based activist Jaggi Singh.

Jaggi will be discussing what a "No Border" or "No One Is Illegal" 
analysis of migration means, and will demonstrate how the world we live 
in can properly and meaningfully be described as "global apartheid." He 
will then take a critical look at the concept of "global citizenship" 
and draw on organizing experiences with migrant and indigenous 
communities to provide a model of how notions of "citizenship" should be 
supplanted by "self-determination" in a shared terrain of struggle.

Jaggi Singh is a No Borders activist based in Montreal. He is an 
organizer with Solidarity Across Borders and the No One Is Illegal 
collective, among other social justice groups.
