Speak Freely recently posted, "You Chose the Wrong Parents," an interview I did with them on migration rights. We covered many issues relating to immigration, including the case for migration rights, how immigration restrictions are similar to medieval serfdom, causes of anti-immigrant sentiment, what I think are the strongest arguments for restrictionism, and how migration relates to broader dangers of nationalism, zero-sum thinking, and widespread political ignorance.
Thanks in large part to the great questions posed by Speak Freely website editor-in-chief Ogechukwu Egwuatu (herself an African immigrant to France), I think this was one of my best media interviews of the last few years. Speak Freely is a publication of European Students for Liberty, and we conducted the interview in April, during LibertyCon Europe (ESFL's annual convention). I wrote about my experience at LibertyCon here, outlining some similarities and differences between European and American libertarians/classical liberals. The transcript of the interview is here (but note there are a lot of transcription errors). I embedded the video below:
