This piece won’t have any tags regarding the situation happening in the world despite the message being obvious to some, and I will explain why:

I remember first hearing about the phase “never again” in high school where we learned about the First World War, how soldiers were found dead in poppy fields and how the flower became a symbol of remembrance, especially after the horrific atrocities of the Second World War.

Yet it seems time and time again , we keep forgetting that is what the poppy represents and the importance of it.

Time and time again , we ignore genocide after genocide.

The people of Palestine, the people of Congo and the Uighur people are innocent and do not deserve the inhumane treatment and cruelty they’re being subjected to , no one deserves to experience genocide, especially in the modern era where we should know better.

I come from England , a country where I do not have to fear for the safety of myself and my family , where I can ignore the news and live in ignorance of the cruelty of mine and various others’ governments’ actions, where I reap the privilege of my country’s colonial history.

Therefor this will not be tagged with the hashtag connected to the various topics I’ve discussed here. I think it’s more important the hashtags be used for stories of people who are not as privileged as I am and by those who are currently fighting for peace and freedom to simply not be erased from existence.

I usually just draw to make myself and others happy and have a laugh , which I will continue to do so, but I will try my best to share others’ stories on my various social medias and spread word. I hope my art can at least comfort people in this horrible moment of history.

I’m not an activist, I admittedly don’t have the courage to protest like many others do , as well as just personal reasons I rather not share. But I hope this piece shows my thoughts are with the people of Palestine, the people of Congo , the Uighur people, and countless others who are facing modern day genocide as the powers of the world turns a blind eye.

I hope you know that I’m here , that I’m listening and your words are being heard.
