Palestine by Joe Sacco

challenging dark emotional informative sad medium-paced

4.5

The stories and images in this book are as old as I am but the oppression of Palestinians has been going on for so much longer. I knew this before reading this book but I don’t think I really fully comprehended it all. Just like I can’t get my head around why it’s still happening. Whether you are interested in ‘politics’ or history or usually just read superhero comics, read this book. Educate yourself.

More people do now seem to be aware about what’s happening in Palestine – it only took thousands and thousands of innocent Palestinians to be killed to get noticed – but it’s the people in power that need to do something about it. So the least you can do is write to them. Demand action. Share information. Make your voice known. Speak out for those that are unable to do so themselves.

Free Palestine. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.
