Expats, Immigrants, Refugees, Asylum seekers - all just words right?

In this episode, Nina explores our use of terminology to build, to separate and, to divide. Where does the dichotomy begin and where does it end?

Why are migrant domestic workers not expats? 

In the last episode, Sticks and Stones, we talked about the words we choose and what they mean. Here are two examples - expats and immigrants. Which one are you? Which one do you prefer being referred to as? Do you even care?

1. 100m displaced people globally
2. 26m refugees

Where do they go? Do they all end up at the English Channel? Is your country now being overrun by refugees? Is there a flood at your doorstep?
