Poem Artwork

Hey friends please share with me this genocide painting created by a friend of mine, Dr. Mohamed Buwe Osman who is a great Somali artist and a physician at St. Paul in North Carolina. He was inspired by a poem I posted here at the DEN some days back. The picture shows the silent and rather systematic genocide aimed at murdering the Somali people particularly the minority groups.

As indicated in the poem, there is a man made starvation aimed at killing people enmass. People were made homeless and helpless who solely depend on food donations. What the criminals do is: They hijack the vessel carrying the food aid and request for ransom to release it. While negotiations are underway thousands die in the camps. If vessel is released they kill the aid worker so as to force the aid agency to suspend its food distribution activities You can reach him through: hhp://osmanart.homestead.com/

Thanks

Hideous, indeed, and a most powerful painting.

Powerful writing, Abdi-noor; very well penned/illustrated!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend/sister in America, Karen Lynn in Texas. :(

Man's inhumanity to man is his own undoing ... a wanting to deny kinship with his fellow brothers and sisters, he sheds his skin ... that's what came to mind, looking upon this tragic figure. A powerful painting by your friend. Well done, Abdi-Noor, thank you for sharing, please convey my best to Dr. Osman.

(((HUGS))) love and prayer, Karla.
