THE SEA BELONGS TO ALL

We’re launching a three-part podcast about freedom of movement, militarisation and intersectiong struggles – from Lampedusa to Gaza – recorded during the first F.Lotta occupation of the central Mediterranean in September 2025.

The voices and stories of activists of rivers and seas from Sardinia to Tunisia, from Calais to Cyprus, from the Niger Delta to Palestine come together to reclaim our waters as a place for collective liberation.

All sources and interview transcripts here.

ABOUT EPISODE 2

In this second episode we ask: who and what is allowed to move freely, and what is contained? We talk anti-Black racism in North Africa, European borders, sacrifice zones, and pollution – from Gabes (Tunisia) to the Niger Delta. We grieve for those we lost at sea and at the hands of those protecting capital. And we keep on sailing.
