honestly fu** you if you think gazans are only allowed to ask for help to cover their very basic necessities when they’re starving or being killed, calling a gazan a grifter for trying to secure her education proves that you don’t see gazans as humans who deserve to live equally.

You can’t blame slaves for burning down the master’s house. Blame ourselves for letting it stand for so long.

while talks of ceasefire are ongoing, the bombing is relentles. They're killing them every minute. So we still need to send direct aid to our brothers and sisters there. Please donate to this campaign that is very close to my heart. Ahmed's daughter Farah is like my own.

I'm struggling with depicting evil lately. We've been told what evil looks like, and we've been told who and what is beautiful. The history of art is the history of 'pretty' white people, of racism, lookism, misogyny, ageism, eugenics.

How many children will die because of this man? How many secretly agree with his eugenics?

I made this painting of the hero journalist, Hossam Shabat, for his little brother Firas. Hossam was killed at age 23 by israel, It is devastating that this family gets so little support. Support Firas and Hossam's family here: chuffed.org/project/1383...
