About this listen

Philemon Sarpong said he felt the sting of dehumanization the moment he stepped into Moria camp and later the new camp. It hit him once, sharply, like a blow to the chest the realization that refugees were being reduced to numbers, trapped in conditions that stripped away dignity piece by piece. Seeing people survive in such cruelty touched him deeply. It stayed with him. He said it changed the way he looked at the world, because no human being should ever be forced to live as if their life has lost its value.
