M7: WITH OUR BODIES AGAINST THE CAMPS

Direct action organised by local human rights group 'No One Is Illegal' . Faced with their own disappearance, people inside and outside the camps have resisted with the only means they have left: their bodies. Hunger strikes, sewing their mouths together, pushing against the wire, enduring solitary confinement, wearing the blows of a baton or the injection of drugs, even setting their own bodies alight. With their bodies, with their resistance they have fought their invisibility, their "illegality".
