Episode 69: ‘You don't have children anymore‘
Description
In this episode, we speak with Arturo, captain of the refugee rescue ship Seapunk I.
He's going to tell us all about the Seapunks activist group and its connection with punk rock music. He also tells us about a dramatic rescue mission in the Mediterranean Sea in January, in which several people died.
We also discuss how the Italian authorities force NGO ships to take the refugees to distant ports, and how this deliberately results in more refugee deaths.
