Humanity Washed Ashore

I know you will be turning your heads away, that's what we do when we see a reality that we do not wish to face. That's what we do when we feel incapable. But we are not incapable, it only takes some effort to break your complacency with the status-quo, break your inertia and do something about a very important issue that very few people in the world are aware. Racism in the 21st Century.

Unlike Aylan, the not so sterilized photos of dead children. But like Aylan, they died because they didn't have the right passport! (Photo from The Daily Beast article "You Might As Well Ignore #KiyiyaVuranInsanlik and the Photos of Dead Refugee Kids" Yes, humanity is really washed ashore!

I'm upset at the travel community, especially the extreme travellers because none seems to care about the right of movement of others, only of themselves. They are travelling the world looking at themselves and just bragging. How can they not notice the injustice at birth? They, who should be aware of the idiocy of visas the most.

Gunnar can go to #EveryCountry twice and "make friends" because he has the right passport and the money. Thor can go to every country overland too because he has the right passport and money. Graham, Lexie, Jessica... They all can go to every country; they have the right passports.
Other people die to just move around the world they were born on. Not only because they do not have the money, but even if they do have some, they are obliged to spend it on smugglers as the Global Apartheid political system, the #EconomicApartheid we have does not allow them to get a visa and get on a plane. Because they do not have the right passport!
