Zainab's Story
Manage episode 423893808 series 2405269
Today, Zainab tells the story of her family's escape from Iraq when she was a 10 year old:-
- her family's perilous journey at the hands of people smugglers on an overcrowded Indonesian fishing boat;
- abandoned by the crew;
- discovered by the Australian Navy;
- her family's arrival in Darwin;
- confined to the Woomera Detention Centre -
before Zainab and her family were released to flourish here in Adelaide.
(My apologies to Zainab and our listeners for the poorer quality of the sound-recording of today's service. Our old computer failed and and I was forced to rely on my back-up recorder.)
