Loss of innocence: Gaza’s children tell story through art

Loss of innocence: Gaza’s children tell their story through art

Rod Cox, a campaigner for justice for the Palestinians, writes:

During a trip to the Gaza Strip by boat in 2008 I was overwhelmed by the need of the people to tell their stories, and how little we know of the truth of Palestine.

I went back after Israel’s Operation Cast Lead in 2009, driving a van full of firemen’s kits, and swapping them for the stories in children’s art to bring back.

This amateur video, a bit shaky, is about the children of Gaza, who are asking for help.
