LAST CALL TO SUPPORT THE KICKSTARTER TO PUBLISH DOWN BY LAW

Down by Law: Criminalization, Solidarity, and Survival in Europe is a collaborative graphic novel by ethnographers, artists, and activists that illuminates people’s stories of fighting criminalization across Europe. In eight moving vignettes, we set sail with civilians who take action to save the lives of migrants at sea, follow the journey of a woman jailed for a bus fare she couldn’t pay, see the impact of state violence on people who use drugs, and follow a migrant woman navigating the challenges of sex work policing who finds resilience in her community, and more.

The criminalized don’t stay put. They adapt, resist, and survive. Their personal stories are rarely seen or heard, until now.

Learn more, see samples, and check out all the rewards including the limited NO ONE IS ILLEGAL tote bag.

The Kickstarter ends this Friday, May 9. Thanks for bringing these stories to life.
