...now hundreds, volunteers who care for the Sea Punk I and maintain it. Here you can see the current group of Punks preparing the ship for its next mission.

Doing civil sea rescue costs (a lot of) money – not doing it costs lives! Therefore: support us with your donation if you can.

Crew – that quickly sounds like a tight-knit group. And even though we naturally have evergreen crewmembers on board our ship who have accompanied and supported us repeatedly or continuously for years, no rotation, no layover time in the port, no shipyard would be possible without all the many, ...

Crew Love. No civil sea rescue without you! This applies in two ways: both to you who follow us here, supporting us through donations and solidarity events, kind thoughts and motivating comments, and to our crew.

...mittlerweile Hunderte, freiwilligen Helfer:innen die die Sea Punk I bekümmern und in Stand halten. Hier seht ihr den aktuellen Haufen Punks, die das Schiff für den nächsten Einsatz vorbereiten.

...schnell nach fester Gruppe an. Und auch wenn wir natürlich Wiederholungstäter:innen bei uns am Schiff haben, die uns seit Jahren immer wieder oder durchgängig begleiten und unterstützen, wäre kein Einsatz, keine Layover Zeit im Hafen, keine Werft zu stemmen ohne all die vielen, ...

(English Below) Crew Liebe! Keine Seenotrettung ohne Euch! Das gilt im doppelten Sinne: sowohl für euch, die ihr uns hier folgt, uns supportet durch Spenden und Soliveranstaltungen, gute Gedanken und motivierende Kommentare, als auch für unsere Crew. Crew - das hört sich ...

but about which I was “meant” to remain oblivious. White privilege is like an invisible weightless knapsack of special provisions, maps, passports, codebooks, visas, clothes, tools and blank checks. " © 1989 Peggy McIntosh

Check your white privilege. Always.

"I think whites are carefully taught not to recognize white privilege, as males are taught not to recognize male privilege. (...) I have come to see white privilege as an invisible package of unearned assets that I can count on cashing in each day, ....

During our last rescue mission, our RHIB was severely damaged and is no longer usable. We need a new one, and this quickly! The next rotation is already planned for November. To be able to cover these unexpected additional costs, we need your support!

Um uns diese unerwarteten extra Kosten leisten zu können, brauchen wir eure Unterstützung! Bitte spendet über den Link in der Story oder in der Bio. Seenotrettung machen kostet Geld - es nicht machen kostet Leben. Keine Seenotrettung ohne euch!

That is why we demand safe passage for the Global Sumud Flotilla.
All Eyes on Gaza!

Our criticism is directed against state, organizations and military policies that violate human rights.

We stand with civilians – Palestinian, Jewish, Muslim, Israeli, and international - who fight and sustain for freedom, dignity, and justice.

Its aim is to support the civilian population in Gaza, suffering under a devastating genocide.

We declare our solidarity with the Sumud Flotilla and its mission to draw attention to this urgent humanitarian crisis.
seapunks.bsky.social
As more than 40 boats with over 500 people on board approach Gaza, the risk of Israeli military intervention grows in the coming days. This is a humanitarian mission by an international civilian fleet, protected by international law.
seapunks.bsky.social
With humanitarian aid beeing blocked from reaching Gaza and trucks carrying food and medical supplies continuously being halted at the border, the @globalsumudflotilla aims to break the siege and open a humanitarian corridor at sea.

But this is precisely the risk the Libyan coast guard and the EU are accepting. We demand immediate clarification and consequences from Italy and the European Union.

SAVE PEOPLE! NOT BORDERS!

This must first be understood and stated very clearly: With the protection, cover, and funding of the EU, the so-called Libyan coast guard can shoot at civilians without consequences! Fortunately, the crew and the rescued people on board were unharmed!
seapunks.bsky.social
The crew came under fire after rescuing 66 people in distress at sea. Following the shots fired on the Ocean Viking, this is the second time in just a few weeks that the so-called Libyan coast guard has felt authorized to shoot at civilian sea rescuers who uphold and defend existing human rights.
seapunks.bsky.social
Aber genau das nehmen die Küstenwache Libyens und die EU in Kauf. Wir fordern sofortige Aufklärung und Konsequenzen durch Italien und die Europäische Union.

During the night from Thursday to Friday, a patrol boat of the so-called Libyan coast guard fired on the rescue ship Sea-Watch 5.
seapunks.bsky.social
Das muss man erstmal begreifen und ganz klar benennen: Unter Schutz, Deckung und Finanzierung der EU kann die sogenannte Küstenwache Libyens ohne Konsequenzen auf Zivilist*innen schießen! Der Crew und den Geretteten an Bord ist zum Glück nichts passiert!
seapunks.bsky.social
Das ist nach den Schüssen auf die Ocean Viking nun bereits das zweite Mal innerhalb weniger Wochen, dass die sogenannte Küstenwache Libyens sich dazu ermächtigt fühlt, auf zivile Seenotretter*innen zu schießen, die geltendes Menschenrecht hochhalten und verteidigen.
