DAAS Africa Workshop: "An Anthropology of Transit: Eritrean Migrations to Italy in a Time of Crisis."
Fiori Berhane, Assistant Professor of Anthropology University of Southern California
Fiori Berhane broadly researches the ways in which African refugees challenge discursive and legal-juridical frameworks that undergird the Central Mediterranean crossing. In particular, she studies the ways in which Eritrean refugee activists engage with colonial, post-colonial and neo-colonial policies and embedded histories in Italy within efforts to redress multi-modal violence-- that which takes place in their country of origin, transit and settlement.
