72 - From house arrest in Tunis to exile

  • Summary

  • The podcast transcript features Massin Kevin Labidi discussing his petition against censorship in Tunisia in February 2006, which led to his home being visited by police and being warned to stop criticizing Islam. Labidi faced further restrictions and threats from Islamists, prompting him to consider leaving Tunisia. Despite participating in protests for freedom and secularism, the resurgence of Islamists in Tunisia made him feel increasingly unsafe. Labidi eventually decided to leave Tunisia in January 2012 for France via the Netherlands, as he saw his country becoming Islamized under Ennahdha's rule. The transcript highlights the challenges faced by individuals advocating for freedom of expression and secularism in the face of rising Islamist influence in Tunisia, leading to Labidi's decision to leave the country.
