The Refugee Trail
A Somali refugee at the Sandholm Asylum Center outside Copenhagen, Denmark, November 12th, 2015.
Timothy John Hinman of Third Ear invited me to speak about podcasting at the Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival on November 9th, and I was supposed to return home today, November 14th. But instead of going home I've decided to rent a car and drive south, following the refugee trail (backwards) to the Greek island of Lesbos. The refugees I've spoken with here in Copenhagen have told me amazing stories and I feel an obligation to record as many as I can. So I'm going to drive south through Europe, finding refugees moving north and ask them: "Why did you leave home? Where are you going? What has happened along the way?" I should be able to get the story produced and posted by the end of November.Your donations will be very much appreciated.
