It's Refugee Week 2023 @RefugeeWeek
Here is a drawing portraying Habib, a Syrian Kurd who I interviewed (Dec. 2013) in his TV repair workshop in Domiz Refugee Camp. He told me that he used to be the best draftsman in his class and why he decided to stop drawing when he was 12.

I just finished @sabbakhan_'s wonderful *The Roles We Play* -- a beautiful & profoundly
affecting portrayal of identity, faith, memory, migration... She has a genius for describing complex realities visually, where words alone don't suffice.
