In Episode 1, the guest is an award-winning journalist and photographer Sally Hayden, the author of “My Fourth Time, We Drowned: Seeking Refuge on the World’s Deadliest Migration Route,” the winner of the Orwell Prize for Political Writing in 2022 and the Michel Déon Prize in 2022. Hayden discusses observations about “systemic issues destroying lives” and the findings of her investigation, based on interviews with hundreds of refugees and migrants inside Libyan detention centers. These refugees from different parts of Africa — who are seeking safety and are trying to get protection in Europe by crossing the Mediterranean Sea — have faced horrendous challenges and abuses of human rights while stuck in Libya, after the European Union started funding interceptions to stem migration in 2017. From trafficking to enslavement and sexual abuse, Hayden elaborates on the EU’s “ethnical culpability” for forcibly turning away the refugees, the corruption of the United Nations, the effect and place of technology as “both a blessing and a curse” for the migrants and the disastrous consequences on mental health due to forced migration, exploitation and the dehumanization of mostly poverty-stricken, traumatized migrants.
