Gaza and our Degrading Politics When words fail us on Gaza, and too on the climate and biodiversity crisis, or on our weakening democracies, artists and poets show us the way.
Thank you David. I think we all feel there's nothing we can do but somehow we have to accept any tiny thing (like a blog) or a social media post is still something. Definitely worth a visit.
Great piece, as ever - yet here the rest of us are, sitting on our hands, switching off the news because it's too painful to watch, or denying that it has any meaning because it's a long way away? Then there is the whataboutery... "The hostages!" Conveniently forgetting the UN resolutions against Israel ignored for decades.
I'd like to see the exhibition next time I'm in Edinburgh though. Thanks for posting about it.
