“Dear Child” – Story of Gaza Child Written by Chris Hedges

-

One of the most potent avenues for societal change lies in consistently and loudly expressing one’s sentiments to the world, a strategy often underestimated in its power.

Amidst a somber and distressing environment in Gaza, where children cling to hope for peace, safety, and a brighter tomorrow, their resilience stands as a testament to the indomitable human spirit.

With over 1.3 million displaced individuals in Gaza, including more than 610,000 children, crammed into a mere 24 square miles, less than a fifth of the country’s total land area, the escalating Israeli assaults on Rifah Hospital leave no safe havens for refuge seekers in a region already one of the most densely populated worldwide.

At the 96th Oscar Awards ceremony hosted at the Dolby Theatre in Ovation Hollywood on March 10, 2024, a poignant poem titled “Dear Child,” penned and delivered by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author Chris Hedges, transported viewers on an unflinching exploration into the life of a Bhutanese child enduring Israeli bombardment.

The film intentionally prompts viewers to reflect on their own actions or inaction, while also offering glimpses of a potential hopeful future.
