The ownership of colours is a ridiculous concept; every single person on this earth percieves it in a unique and interesting way, the minute we remove colours from the public sphere it takes away resources for artists to tell their story. That's all art is; stories. The ownership of colours has a direct impact on how artists are able to tell those stories; imagine a world where words were owned, and to speak them incurred a massive fee or threat of lawsuit, truly ridiculous.
Melissa supported: Suspend Yves Klein Exhibitions Until His Estate Stops Suing Living ArtistsAsaduzzaman Noor is not just an artist, he is a symbol of Bangladesh’s cultural pride and resilience. His contributions to our art, literature, and politics have inspired generations, and he deserves our unwavering support — not false accusations. Bangladesh stands taller because of him, and we owe it to our nation’s spirit to see him free.
Golam Shajlee Adeeb supported: Free Baker Bhai - End the Arbitrary Detention of Asaduzzaman NoorImagine if you and your family were living in Gaza and this was happening to you, the least we can do to help is share information and evidence of the atrocities being committed against the people of Palestine.
raza supported: Reinstate the BBC's Gaza documentaryThe Palestinian people have suffered so much in this terrible war which has been going on for decades without any sign of an end in sight. They get no support from any of the countries throughout this world. They are treated as if they are not human beings. They have lost everything- their homes have been taken from them and their schools have been bulldozed. Nobody seems to care about them. This documentary should be shown so that the world can witness the injustices under which they have suffered.
The Palestinian people deserve to have their own country. Gaza needs to be rebuilt as does the lives of its people. I pray that they get their country back and get the
Maureen supported: Reinstate the BBC's Gaza documentaryI keep myself informed from sources outside of mainstream media but many people don't and just stick to BBC, ITV etc. Palestinian people as a whole are suffering outside of our understanding. I never thought I'd see the day where children are being made orphans in their thousands, had to go without food and clean water, be forced to live in tents (if "lucky" enough to have a tent), witness constant death and mutilation. I am traumatised by witnessing this on my phone and can't even imagine their torment and trauma. The Israeli state recently celebrated the "elimination" of the 2 year old grandson of a Hamas official and taking this programme down due to a child's link to a member of Hamas is equally unthinkable - hes still living this horrendous experience. The very, very least we can do is to listen to and hear their story.
Jacqueline supported: Reinstate the BBC's Gaza documentaryChildren’s lives are more important than anything else. How can anyone not see that: those children who survive will already be so damaged both physically and mentally. We have lost our humanity if we turn our backs on them.
Alexandra supported: Reinstate the BBC's Gaza documentaryThe voices of children affected by war, genocide, terrorism, and/or other such atrocities deserve to be heard. While it is true that the narrator's father has ties to Gaza's Hamas government (although not necessarily in the context of militancy), regardless, this is a boy who personally has done nothing wrong and just wants to live his life normally, like every other child. The voices of people like him need to be heard so the world can understand the depth of human suffering across the world, and if the BBC doesn't take responsibility, they are bound to contribute, albeit not directly, to the censorship of the suffering in question.
Sebastian supported: Reinstate the BBC's Gaza documentaryThis documentary deserves recognition and commendation, not censorship.
It is a compelling well made and informative film that BBC licence fee payers should be able to watch and the BBC should be proud to stand by.
It is in the public interest that stories from Gaza be told, particularly those of the living Palestinian children (who make up a huge percentage of the population) whose stories are theirs alone regardless of their parentage. If the BBC continues with this censorship and it's inadequate reporting of the events in Gaza, I will and have good reason to believe that many others will cancel their licencing fees and go elsewhere to learn about current events and watch the news.
Flora supported: Reinstate the BBC's Gaza documentaryOrdinary people are always forgotten about in conflicts of power struggles. Here, the courageous children are speaking up about their personal experiences, which shouldn’t be silenced. Would you silence your child to speak up against bullying?
Yasmeen supported: Reinstate the BBC's Gaza documentaryFor decades, reporting such as this has ignored and censored, effectively silencing the voices of Palestinians. But there is something particularly cruel and callous about silencing the voices of children trying to survive in a war zone. I, along with the rest of the world, need to see this documentary. If the BBC has any interest in restoring its tattered reputation, it needs to make this documentary widely available as it was originally intended.
