In this No Borders Media audio dispatch, we get context and perspective about immigration detention and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) in the aftermath of the public confirmation of the death of Bolante Idowu Alo, killed in CBSA custody at the Calgary Airport on August 7, 2018, while resisting his deportation.
For context on Alo's death, other deaths in CBSA custody, as well as challenging immigration detention itself, No Borders Media speaks with Mina Ramos, a long-time organizer with the End Immigration Detention Network who has organized with detainees resisting deportations and the CBSA.
