Say her name

One of the dehumanising aspects of the mass killings of Palestinians by the Israeli Offence Force in Gaza - and the West Bank - has been - and is - the way these are so often talked in terms of and reduced to casualty statistics: 200 dead ... 1000 dead ... tens of thousands dead.

It does not take away from our registering the horrific scale of the crimes against such large number of Palestinian people to focus in on a particular example which highlights the atrocities.

Sometimes it is the emotional connection that people can make with an individual atrocious murder that can open up a wider understanding of the systematic - systemic - assault on life and dignity that has been unfolding.

That's the purpose of an initiative being promoted by the Edinburgh Gaza Genocide Emergency Committee (EGGEC), Friends of Al-Aqsa, and Gaza Genocide Emergency Committee (GGEC, Glasgow)

A replica of the car in which six-year-old Hind Rajab and her family were killed, and of the ambulance in which two paramedics were murdered as they attempted to rescue Hind, will tour four Scottish cities in April.

The exhibition, by Activist artist Doug Crabtree, aims to raise public awareness of the impact of Israeli military violence and occupation, calls us to think more closely about what we can do to help end the genocide and bring about a day of liberation, peace and justice for all Palestinians

The Killing of Hind Rajab exhibition will be in the following locations during the dates and times listed:

Edinburgh: Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 April, Foot of the Mound, EH2 2HG, 9am-6pm

Dundee: Tuesday 21 April, City Square, DD1 1SG, 9am-7pm

Aberdeen: Wednesday 22 April, St Nicholas Square, AB10 1HW, 12-7pm

Glasgow: Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 April, 98 Buchanan Street, G1 3HA, 9am-6pm

Donations will be collected for the @hindrajabfoundation -

an organisation established to pursue legal action against individuals responsible for violence against Palestinians.
