lickystickypickywe: collective-history: A child suffering the effects of severe hunger and malnutrition during the Nigerian blockade of Biafra 1967–1970. Growing up Biafra became a concept. Many times I heard people around me say “eat your food. Think of the children in Biafra”. Occasionally I saw pictures in the newspapers or on TV. So much it became “common”. It shocked me the first few times and then it kind of settled in the back of my mind. Scrolling by this morning and seeing this image it hits me in the face full force again. I think mainly because now I put the kid in context of my chubby privileged nephew and the only thing I feel like is crying real hard. Because the more I know about what is going on the world, the more I know about the complexity of things, the more powerless I feel.
