Hot tip: while the odd bloke’s rallying against migrants, hanging around flags to remind them of where they live, try and refrain from forcefully asking your migrant colleagues: “where do you come from? No, I mean, where are you from? I mean, before that? No, I mean, originally?”

Vast areas of my home region have burned to the ground. Fires continue to rage, some of which in the hearts and souls of those most affected: no political accountability and no reparative justice in sight, but equally, no lexicon for what we collectively feel.
