Captain Paul Watson is one of those people that stands as a symbol of an active activist. While petitions and peaceful protests have their place, Captain Watson has always believed in the power of direct action. Speaking for the voiceless is a trying and never ending lifelong mission and so many burn out, lose hope or end up corrupted by it. For Captain Watson he is still going strong after more than 50 years. | Captain Paul Watson is one of those people that stands as a symbol of an active activist.
