“Right now we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation, which has led to conflict for so many innocent people. Whether the victims of October the 7th in Israel or the ongoing attack on Gaza, all the victims of this dehumanization, how do we resist?”
— Johnatan Glazer, director of The Zone of Interest, during his oscar speech
If there’s no resistance there’s no
us
You throw sticks and into ribs they become
I drop bricks then into wits they morph
If there’s no resistance
their mogul leeches water
from motherland
until she bleeds fire
A fire that used to be ours
A fire to our little embers
The fuel to our stomach
If there’s no resistance
There’s no body
skin mapped out of scratches
and sweats
our legacy.
our fists merged into one.
The body of
you and i.
Break the glass
Wake the grass
Resist.
