  4. #Palestine / Joe Sacco on Gaza War: 'This Is Israel's Genocide, but It Is Also America's'

    Joe Sacco's graphic novel, "War on Gaza," moves away from traditional graphic journalism to offer a satirical and critical commentary on the ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which the U.S. is complicit.

    Unable to enter Gaza due to restrictions on foreign journalists, Sacco uses an essay format and satirical imagery to depict the horrors of the war and critique the actions of both Israel and the United States.

    The book is a reaction to the mainstream media's coverage of the conflict, and a call to acknowledge the suffering of Palestinians.

  5. Book 18: “Palestine” by #JoeSacco.

    Felt I needed to read this with everything going on. Also took a workshop on #ComicsJournalism, which apparently Sacco pioneered? One of the conventions is that the author inserts themself into both the narrative and the drawings—there’s no pretense of objectivity or an attempt at invisibility. I didn’t like Sacco’s unvarnished sexism and Western bias. But even 40 years from publication, this taught me a lot.

  6. Monty Got the Sack

    The Bruins fired Jim Montgomery today, relieving him of his coaching duties. Raise your hand if you’re surprised by this move. I’ll wait…

    Waiting…

    No one on Earth has raised their hand…

    That’s what I thought.

    The interim coach will be Joe Sacco. Let me rephrase that statement just a bit… The interim coach will be FORMER LOWELL LOCK MONSTERS HEAD COACH Joe Sacco. Yeah, you read that right. Lock Monster Hockey, it’s alive. Well… not alive per se… more like (briefly) not forgotten.

    We will see how the team responds. I mean, it can’t really get any worse, can it?

    Can it?

  7. The Zapatistas set out—as John Holloway put it—to “change the world without taking power“. That this sounds like an oxymoron is a sign of how our political imagination has contracted, not a sign of what is possible.

  8. #JoeSacco, dessinateur: "On parle beaucoup de liberté, mais la liberté pour qui?"
    “On parle sans cesse des droits humains, de démocratie, de l'État de droit, mais manifestement ce sont des choses auxquels certains peuples n'ont pas le droit. Ceux qui parlent de droit international sont ceux qui le violent le plus. Pour moi, c'est comme si Gaza était le dernier clou planté dans le cercueil. C'est une faillite morale de l'Occident.”

  9. "There's no obvious spin, no easily discernible line of doctrine in Joe Sacco's often ironic encounters with Palestinians under occupation, no attempt to smooth out what is for the most part a meager, anxious existence of uncertainty, collective unhappiness and deprivation."
    —Edward Said, in his introduction to 'Palestine'.

  14. An important book today. A book that was important for me to read 10 years ago. A book that was published 30 years ago. How little changes.
