Renée Jacobi, Jacques-André Boiffard, 1930

In this context it is worth looking again at the surrealist Jacques-Andre Boiffard's photograph of Renee Jacobi (1930), which suggests she is a corpse in a mortuary, and to consider Luc Sante's comments on crime photography: "In looking at a crime photo we know we are looking at an image of radical disjunction before we are consciously aware of its narrative content. But then crime retails death, or at best loss, so that even before spectations with no personal stake in the matter it is charged. It is surrealism with a knife."

NYC, 1960

Blackout times in Kyiv a year ago.

Oleksandra Kostetska, widow of a fallen Ukrainian soldier Kostyantyn Miroshnichenko, did a photoshoot with the same photographer who took their pictures as a couple.

"I will show you my new reality. As a widow. Igor Yefimov, you started photographing us as a couple at the beginning of our relationship, now you have taken the end for me. Mirosh [Kostyantyn's military call sign] taught me a lot, now the last lesson is to live without him and remain strong. But it's hard without his warmth/smile/laughter/hugs/bedtime talks, and my favorite, running my fingers across his cheeks and stroking his beard. I love, but I am no longer loved".

"Ramadan Is The Best Time To Kill Them"

"Ramadan is the best time to kill them, because they are weak and low in strength"

Almog Cohen

Israeli Kinesset Minister

Israeli Knesset Member Almog Cohen says the month of Ramadan, when Muslims all over the world are fasting, is the ‘best time to kill’ the people of Gaza because they’re weak and tired’.

Speaking on the Israeli Channel 14, he called on Prime Minister Netanyahu to invade Rafah and ‘kill them’.

Israel has killed over 32,000 Palestinians since the start of its war on Gaza on 7 October, the majority being women and children.

The people have spoken! We pledge unwavering solidarity with Palestine and all those fighting for freedom, today, tomorrow, and every day until liberation.

Politicians, we've heard you, now hear us!! You no longer speak for us. Your thirst for power and wealth has blinded you to our struggles. But we refuse to be silenced any longer. The era of your dominance is crumbling before our eyes as we reclaim our narrative and defy your tyranny and greed.

Power to the people! Liberation for all those shackled by the chains of Western imperialism! 🇵🇸✊🏽
