About
Love Has No Borders is a grassroots, radical movement in solidarity with Refugees and Resettled communities around the world. We think globally and act locally through organizing efforts to create networks,More support systems, mutual aid and friendships- to empower community, support autonomy and create power from below.

We do not act as or believe in the charity model- we act in solidarity and respect the agency, autonomy and self determination of all people. Love Has No Borders is explicitly anti-fascist and we are vocal and active in our community against fascism, racism and xenophobia.

The vast majority of the world’s population, ourselves included, are exploited and oppressed by capitalism and the state. Xenophobia and militarism are common enemies as well. It is this recognition of common cause which allows for a culture of solidarity and mutual aid to emerge. We know that our wellbeing and liberation is intimately tied with that of “others”.

The way we operate is critical to subverting power imbalances and destabilizing the boundaries that keep us apart. Where possible, we therefore strive to work through the horizontal model of solidarity rather than the top down model of charity. We seek to create relationships of trust and respect where we challenge our own privileges, bridge the gap between ourselves and “others” and create partnerships with newly arrived individuals and families fleeing the explicit violence of war or the more obscured violence of our global economic system.

We believe that migration should not be a privilege of those fortunate to be born in wealthy countries, but instead, that all people should be free to migrate where they want regardless of their ethnicity or nationality. We express this through listening to and working with refugees in our community, responding to their self-determined needs and supporting individuals and organizations overseas who are on the frontlines of the struggle for justice, compassion, and humanity in regards to migration.

Annie Fitzgerald is looking for recommendations.

Hey everyone, I’m still in dire need of assistance at this time. I have spent hours on the phone with various attorneys and charities attempting to find help. But I keep getting passed off to otherMore charities or places to turn for help and I’m in danger of losing everything I own if my ex disposes of my belongings. Please, if you can donate to help me get into a permanent home so I can get the home nursing care I need (Cashapp $askewlogic or Venmo) . Or if anyone knows of a good housing/realty attorney that can help me appeal my unlawful detainer and get my belongings back, please let me know. Thank you!

Hi all, this is a message from my friend Annie:

"I wanted to give y’all a quick update. I’ve been in 3 hotels in 2 weeks and I’m running low on money. I’m just a few days from being on the streets. I’ve called 211 and other places for help, but every time I call somewhere, I get a new phone number to call somewhere else and I ultimately don’t getMore any help. My health has taken a nose dive in the last few weeks and I know that I won’t survive being homeless on the streets. I need to find a home asap so I can resume my hospice nurse visits. If you can please help spread the word about my story, donate to me (Cashapp is $askewlogic) or provide a temporary place to stay, I will be eternally grateful. I’m trying to get help every day but I’m dying and I don’t know how much longer I can live this way. Please share this post if you can’t help in other ways. Thank you comrades!"

Good Shepherd Collective is sharing a COVID-19 Update.

After 104 days without food, Maher al Akhras has broken his hunger strike on the promise that he will be released November 26. In this video, he is fed by his young daughter, who was refused access to herMore father only days ago.

Maher’s story is important for so many reasons—he has not only brought international attention to the horrors of Israeli administrative detention, whereby Palestinians can be held indefinitely without even the ability to see the evidence of the accusations leveled against them or any kind of conviction. Maher has also shown us the importance and strategy of self-sacrifice, forcing Israeli authorities into taking his case seriously and answering publicly for their lack… More

"Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach. Any small, calm thing that one soul can do to help another soul, to assist some portion of this poor suffering world, will help immensely. It is not given to us to know which acts or by whom, will cause the critical mass to tip toward an enduring good."
