Over there in Arabia #2: Germany, Tunisia and the World Cup in Qatar


Listen Later

The World Cup is in full motion and debates couldn't be more controversial. Is it our duty to boycott an event that has cost so many exploited migrant workers their lives?

While arguing about this very topic, Heiner and Reiner, two German workers, happen to meet an “Arabian” journalist. Being from Tunisia, his perception of the subject is rather new to them.

Very soon, they start to question themselves: Is the "western” view the only legitimate opinion? What is there to criticize about Qatar and how should we stand up for human rights? How does the Arab world look at this World Cup? And what does it mean for the Global South to participate in such an event?

Eyes were opened, narrow views widened.
