Summary:

“Ava hands out affection like it requires no deliberation, as generously as the kindly street hawker a few blocks down from the hospital plops a gratuitously hefty scoop of crispy pork lard on Beatrice’s weekly 车仔面 despite her insistence that it’s more cholesterol than anyone should be consuming in a day, let alone a single meal.”

or: surgeons au, except it’s specifically the universe of a 2019 hong kong drama with multiple mentions of 车仔面 (cart noodles)

CALL FOR ACTION:

at the time of writing, israeli airstrikes have killed dozens in rafah, in the southern gaza strip. rafah is the sole crossing point between the gaza strip and egypt, which is not allowing in palestinian refugees, and rafah is where civilians have gone after being instructed by israeli forces to head south to avoid israeli airstrikes. rafah, now the most densely populated area in the world, is being bombed. this is not self defence — this is not about hamas, nor is it about 7th october. this is murder. this is ethnic cleansing. this is genocide, plain and clear.

here are some ways you can help innocent palestinian civilians:

donate an esim. this helps people in gaza continue to share their experiences with people like you and me. this helps in fighting against the oppression of their voices and prevents authorities from being able to sweep this under a rug and keep the truth hidden.

donate to the palestinian red crescent society (prcs). prcs is part of the international red cross and red crescent movement and is providing humanitarian aid to palestinians. you can find out more about them here. you can also read their emergency appeal launched on 12th december 2023 here.

if it’s safe for you to do so, attend a protest. speak up; use your voice — even raising awareness on social media can make a difference. don’t let the world forget that those in power are allowing this to happen, and that we are all witnesses.

I’m feeling emotional about Ezra Jack Keats tonight. Guys his dad was worried about him and yet he supported him and brought him supplies. He died two days before a ceremony to give his son an award. And Ezra made so many good books! He made good art! His dad didn’t want him to have a hard life, but he still brought home paint for him. He still kept his son’s achievements in his wallet. He loved him. Guys he loved him.

image one- a screenshot of the Wikipedia article for Ezra Jack Keats. The text shows part of the bibliography tab. Some text is underlined in green. It reads:

��Jack Keats was born Jacob Ezra Katz on March 11, 1916, in East New York, Brooklyn, the third child of Polish-Jewish immigrants Benjamin Katz and Augusta Podgainy. The family was very poor. Jack, as he was known, was artistic from an early age, and joyfully made pictures out of whatever scraps of wood, cloth and paper that he could collect. Benjamin Katz, who worked as a waiter, tried to discourage his son, insisting that artists lived terrible, impoverished lives. Nevertheless, he sometimes brought home tubes of paint, claiming, "A starving artist swapped this for a bowl of soup."(4)

With little encouragement at home, Keats sought validation for his skills at school and learned about art at the public library. He received a medal for drawing on graduating from Junior High School 149. Although unimpressive-looking, the medal meant a great deal to him, and he kept it his entire life (5) Keats attended Thomas Jefferson High School, where he won a national contest run by Scholastic for an oil painting depicting hobos warming themselves around a fire. '5) At his graduation, in January 1935, he was to receive the senior class medal for excellence in art. Two days before the ceremony, Benjamin Katz died in the street of a heart attack. When Keats identified his father's body, he later wrote, "I found myself staring deep into his secret feelings. There in his wallet were worn and tattered newspaper clippings of the notices of the awards I had won. My silent admirer and supplier, he had been torn between his dread of my leading a life of hardship and his real pride in my work. (7) His father's death curtailed his dream of attending art school. For the remainder of the Great Depression until he was drafted for military service in World War 1l, Keats took art classes when he could and worked at a number of jobs, most notably as a mural painter under the New Deal program the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and as a comic book illustrator. At Fawcett Publications, he illustrated backgrounds for the Captain Marvel comic strip. He spent his military service (1943-45) designing camouflage patterns for the U.S. Army Air Force. In 1947, he petitioned to legally change his name to Ezra Jack Keats, in reaction to the anti-Semitic prejudice of the time.

Keats spent most of 1949 painting and studying in Paris, realizing a long-deferred dream of working as an artist. After returning to New York, he focused on earning a living as a commercial artist, undoubtedly influenced by his father's anxieties. His illustrations began to appear in Reader's Digest, The New York Times Book Review, Collier's and Playboy, and on the jackets of popular books. His work was displayed in Fifth Avenue store windows, and the Associated American Artists Gallery, in New York City, gave him exhibitions in 1950 and 1954.

In his unpublished autobiography, Keats wrote, "I didn't even ask to get into children's books." In fact, he was asked to do so by Elizabeth Riley of Crowell, which brought out…”

From this, the passages

“Benjamin Katz, who worked as a waiter, tried to discourage his son, insisting that artists lived terrible, impoverished lives. Nevertheless, he sometimes brought home tubes of paint, claiming, "A starving artist swapped this for a bowl of soup"”

and

“Benjamin Katz died in the street of a heart attack. When Keats identified his father's body, he later wrote, "I found myself staring deep into his secret feelings. There in his wallet were worn and tattered newspaper clippings of the notices of the awards I had won. My silent admirer and supplier, he had been torn between his dread of my leading a life of hardship and his real pride in my work."”
