Time for the rematch of the decade, my friend.
Bring it.
BATTLE DISCLAIMER: This battle contains graphic subject matter which some may find offensive or disturbing. Please read the statement below before viewing this battle so you understand the intent. Thanks!
Unfortunately, every blow in this battle is based on history. The point is to create beautiful images about human suffering to create dialogue and educate people about these events in history. When the mistakes of our past are forgotten or ignored they are easily repeated. When we realize our mistakes as a global society and discuss how to prevent them from happening again then, and only then, can we prepare ourselves to quickly recognize and prevent such attrocities from happening again. We are not naive enough to think that we can prevent every bad thing that happens in this world but we can learn from the mistakes of our past and at least try not to repeat them.
The other side of the battle is to show the strength of the human spirit to overcome the horrible things we are sometimes faced with. Sometimes, looking up from the bottom of the pit we are in, it seems impossible to get out. We can remember the triumph of those who have survived these horrible situations and gain strength from the knowledge that others have survived even worse.
Thanks for taking the time to view our battle.
