THIS PALESTINIAN CARTOONIST MAKES ART INSIDE PRISON

In episode #20 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to Mohammad Sabaaneh about Palestine. What was it like to spend 6 months in an Israeli jail? How did cartooning help Mohammad cope? And what is the political cartoon movement sweeping the Palestinian diaspora? From the West Bank, Mohammad is at the forefront of this movement, translating headlines into lived experiences through art. Listen to Drew reflect on his time in Palestine, while Mohammad shares how things have changed, from Ramallah to Gaza, and how he needs permission to visit Jerusalem. They talk about fasting, food, similarities between Jews and Muslims, as well as life inside prison, and comics as an educational tool in understanding settler-colonialism. In the end, they come to the same conclusion. Enough with the labels. We are all just human. And together as one, may we find peace.
