Brazilian Drawing For Gaza

Filed under: Arab Societies, Media, International, Palestine — Eman at 9:26 am on Tuesday, April 1, 2008

Carlos Latuff is a Brazilian Cartoonist, who brilliantly uses his talent in creating artworks that serve important political, cultural and religious issues such as the occupation of Palestine, the war on Iraq, Islamophobia and many other issues.

I personally found his work to be really impressive, and thought I’d share some of his cartoons that are dedicated to call on the world to condemn the Israeli holocaust of Gaza.

More on Latuff’s work:

* Wakeup From Your Slumber.

* The People’s Voice.

Jasim, it’s for that specific reason that I like him. He somehow represents the foreign support that we lack most of the time!
Hamede, he deserves it, he’s talented and is a man of principal.

Brastos, what a lovely meaningful quote, thanks a lot!

Dear Eman,

I found your blog bil sodfa. I was googling Dubai Lynx I think. Anyway, I’ve just started reading it and I am enjoying. I have a Palestinian father, a Jordanian mother, and the Lebanese nationality. So although I can not really claim total understanding of the plight of the Palestinians in Palestine, as the child of an exiled man, and having lived through too many wars in Lebanon, I do feel very strongly against all this violence. It pleases me to have international voices joining ours as well. I am currently in Tunisia, working temporarily in an advertising agency. I hope we can get in contact for real.
But if not, best wishes and bon courage. ( I like languages as well :)
