Message de Janan, épouse d’Ameer Makhoul
Dear Mireill, hope your doing well
I know that today is the memorization 50 of Frantz Fanon’s death. Just started re-reading his book « the wretched of the earth » I have it as PDF in Arabic. I look at things he write, today after jailing Ameer in not different but focused way, and fiend thing that help me organize my thoughts, my feelings, also as an art therapist I »m happy to know that he has be involved by music therapy.
Take care dear Mireill, let his legacy continue been helpful for all people how seek to be free on there land, as us the Palestinians.
I made copy of the book for Ameer, and started send him chapter by chapter with my posts, since I »m not allowed to give him the book. books are not allowed any more by jail services to be handed to political prisoners,
Wish you all the best
Janan
« Ameer Makhoul is a key human rights defender, well-known for his civil society activism on behalf of the Palestinian citizens of Israel. His arrest and continued detention smacks of pure harassment, designed to hinder his human rights work. If this is the case, we would regard him as a prisoner of conscience call for his immediate and unconditional release. » Philip Luther, Deputy Director of Amnesty International’s Middle East and North Africa Programme.

Chère Mireille
Je t’écris aujourd’hui pour te dire que je me rappelle de Frantz Fanon, du maître Fanon, qui aujourd’hui, 6 décembre, fait cinquante années de sa mort. Je suis persuadé que son oeuvre est plus vive que jamais et que le lire est une façon magnifique d’arriver à comprendre plusieurs choses qui nous entourent.
Aujourd’hui je me rappelle aussi de mon père, mort il y a huit ans. C’est vrai si je te dis que je n’ai jamais pensé avant à cette coïncidence bizarre : mon père il est né le 6 décembre 1924… Même si Carl Jung disait que les coïncidences n’existent plus…
Nous nous verrons dans quelques jours à Bamako.
Bonne voyage et à très bientôt.
Amitiés
Juan
