Congratulations to Rafi Escoto, who has had a paper published in the Central Europe Yearbook! The paper, “Everything Old is New Again: Border Rituals and the Return of History in ‘Green Border’”, analyses Agnieszka Holland’s 2023 film about refugees from the Middle East and Africa who attempt to reach the European Union, only to become caught up in a geopolitical crisis triggered by the Belarusian dictator, Alexander Lukashenko.
Rafi initially wrote this paper in HIST 145: The History of Now, which is taught by Profs. Matthew Payne and Astrid M. Eckert.
Rafi is a junior and is currently studying abroad in Italy. You can find the paper here: https://pubs.lib.umn.edu/index.php/cey/article/view/6880
