Death is never the end. The stunted legacies, beliefs, and dreams of those before us can help us reach our futures and freedoms. We do not exist as individuals, but as infinite continuations of a goal for freedom.

Death is never the end. The stunted legacies, beliefs, and dreams of those before us can help us reach our futures and freedoms. We do not exist as individuals, but as infinite continuations of a goal for freedom. With the attention of global and western audiences, people can best understand the truth of what has been happening in Palestine.

A clay figure with a silver face is warped into two cables, bending against each other. This character's face, what they represent, has become a binding force for these two cables. Next we see a figure climbing a net. Referencing fishnets used by Palestinians before and during the occupation, this net is a continuation of the figures that became the cables. Their ideas, dreams, values, and representations act as ladders for the climbing figure, letting them climb through the blasts, smoke, and gunfire surrounding them. They end their climb at a door between two blue eyes that represents the western world. All those who were forced to become cables, let others climb into the views of the western world.

While the main intent was to focus on Palestine, this can be applicable to other humanitarian crises as well. For further studies of humanitarian crises in 2023, look into freedom for the Democratic Republic of Congo, Sudan, Haiti, Tigray, and the American Prison Industrial Complex.
