Forcibly Involved
The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this, may be incapable of morality. — James Baldwin
Forcibly Involved is a project memorializing the names of children killed on and since October 7, 2023, on both sides of the border, without differences of nationality, and with the belief that every child has a name, a life that has been, and dreams cut short, and that we must remember this.
