All of the people pictured and named in this art piece are citizens of Gaza who have been displaced and affected (a grave understatement, I know) by the war in Gaza. These are beautiful brave souls. Children, mothers, fathers, families, storytellers, filmmakers, doctors, humans whose lives continue in constant terror and pain beyond when you see them in your social media feed begging you not to scroll: to help them with donations and to be their voice. Now is not the time to remain neutral, or to turn a blind eye. We must do whatever we can to pressure those in power to stop the violence. Free Palestine.
