Exilés

Exilés
José Hamra Sassón / 15 septiembre 2011

Spanish is my mother’s tongue
I speak, read and write English
A little Hebrew
I can swear in these three languages

And also in Arabic

French?  Just for asking coffee


I’m an Arab

I’m a Jew


I was born in Mexico

I was born in Israel

I was born in Argentina

I was born in the two main cities of the Syrian province of the Ottoman Empire


I was found dead fighting in the Warsaw Ghetto

I was found dead tortured in Garage Olimpo

I was found dead crossing the Arizona desert

I was found dead fighting in the streets of Jenin


I’m a mestizo that lived his childhood in Rosario de Santa Fe

Ya’waldani polani


I’m at the Yiddishe Kulturecamp

I’m a Palestinian intellectual

I’m a Mexican artist

I’m an Argentinian rock-star


I’m the oppressed and the oppressor

The entrepreneur that marches reading El País

I eat meat tacos with tahine and chimichurri

All together

Best recipe


I am Sam, Sam I am[1]

I’m your man[2]




[1] Dr. Seuss, Green Eggs and Ham
[2] Leonard Cohen

Gracias Paloma! Exilés es una fotografía desde un ángulo. Me era necesario enunciar la escena. :) Vengo regresando desde hace varios meses y aún no termino de llegar. Un beso de vuelta.
