In an era where migration and asylum are becoming more securitized, this article argues that unruly action by asylum seekers contributes to decolonization through challenging stratified citizenship and hierarchical immigration laws. I argue through a case of members of the Zimbabwe Vigil in London that diasporas challenge the system within their countries of settlement, enhancing self-determination, and speak back to their homelands by demanding rights where excluded. The article draws from 20 key informant interviews conducted with members of the Zimbabwe Vigil in London and their partners on the ground in Harare, Zimbabwe. Through speaking back to the homeland, these individuals play a role in challenging coloniality within the homeland and thus are agents of decolonization. Ultimately, the article answers calls by scholars to expand and challenge the way we have conceptualized diaspora in addition to the literature on diaspora lobbying, engagement and decolonization.

不守规矩的侨民行动作为非殖民化：伦敦津巴布韦人的落魄和激进主义

在移民和庇护变得更加安全化的时代，本文认为，寻求庇护者的不守规矩的行为通过挑战分层公民身份和等级移民法，有助于非殖民化。我通过伦敦津巴布韦守夜会成员的一个案例论证说，侨民挑战其定居国的制度，增强自决权，并通过要求被排除在外的权利来向自己的祖国发声。本文摘自对伦敦津巴布韦守夜组织成员及其在津巴布韦哈拉雷当地的合作伙伴进行的 20 次重要知情人采访。通过对祖国发声，这些人在挑战祖国内部的殖民性方面发挥了作用，因此成为非殖民化的推动者。最终，本文响应了学者们的呼吁，除了有关侨民游说、参与和非殖民化的文献之外，还扩大和挑战了我们对侨民概念的理解方式。
