We are going to remember it for the thousands of initiatives that honor life, resilience, and humanity above all. BarakaBits has selected 10 happy photos that redefined 2014.
Because happiness, too, can be a form of resistance. 1) The little girl from Gaza who rescued her books among the rubble. 2) The Algerian national soccer team, who donated their World Cup prize to Gaza.
3) The Palestinian artist who turned photos of bombs into symbols of strength. 4) The #LetAymanReport social media campaign that brought journalist Ayman Mohyeldin back to humanize the conflict in Gaza. 5) This Syrian artist, who created the world’s largest mural made of recycled materials in Damascus, a city sunk by civil war.
