In readings from this book Journalist Lauren Trethewey explores stories about the many ways in which people around the world interact with the ocean. In this chapter Trethewey provides the accounts of Hassan Baheer and Mohammed Botwe, refugees who travel across the Mediterranean sea in overcrowded boats in search of a better life. Topics in this chapter include what leads refugees to make such a dangerous trip, the smugglers who facilitate the transit, and the larger political context that surrounds the refugee crisis.
