To This Day People Will Cry Over The Knowledge And Works Destroyed When The Library Of Alexandria Was

To this day people will cry over the knowledge and works destroyed when the library of Alexandria was burned down.

And yet no tears are shed as Palestinian archives and libraries are bombed.

Saint Porphyrius Church, built in 1150 and the 3rd oldest church in the world has been bombed.

It's not an accident.

Israel aren't simply killing Palestinians, they are trying to erase that there ever were Palestinians in the first place.

Destroying their livelihoods, trying to to destroy their culture and history and pretend this land was never there's.

It's easy to deny someone's existence when there's no record of them.

Which is why it's so important to look at the atrocities and bear witness to what's happening.

But to also recognise that Palestine is more than it's suffering.

There is a living breathing culture, of art, history, literacy which all come from the Palestinians.

Traditions they've carried for centuries.

So while we mourn the dead, we shall fight for the living. Fight for the preservation of their crafts, amplify their voices as they speak on their culture.

Palestinian history and culture is alive. And no matter how much the world wants to erase that, they cannot and will not.

First 4 panels of an 8-panel comic. Header reads: "Jan 21st-28th. Global Strike for Palestine." The first panel reads: "Bisan Owda has called for a global strike from Jan. 21st to 28th. Do what you can to call attention to the occupation and genocide, be disruptive, and push for a ceasefire! Any amount helps! Perfectionism and defeatism don't make a difference, but taking any action on this list might."

Panel 2 depicts a person walking away from speech bubbles containing a phone and a computer. Text reads: "Call out from work or school. Do it with other folks if possible, to disrupt normal operations."

Panel 3 depicts a person hanging up flyers on a wall in the street. Text reads: "Share flyers and information."

Panel 4 depicts a person on a phone call, and writing an email at their laptop. Text reads: "Urge political figures to take action. Threaten to rescind your support if they don't."

Bisan Owda's call to action

"A kiss left of you... Heaven"

My previous stsg art was so sad that I needed to draw something softer for them (and my mental health lol), so here's a little something based on the lyrics of mitski's "Heaven" 😭

I like to imagine them sharing an afterlife of simple tranquility... Free of power, grief and worry... <3
