Artist Maurice Spira (who's work will appear in Norman's next book), responsed to the bombings in Gaza. See more of his work on his site: http://www.mauricespira.com

"As an artist living in Canada in the Pacific Northwest, without a television, I tend to "see" the news on my radio. These paintings are my response to the bombardment of Gaza. The painting Walls was completed several months prior to the Gaza events, the rest were executed during the bombardment."

Makwan Moloudzadeh, 21 years old

Norman was recently honoured to collaborate with the highly respected Italian-based international Human Rights group, EveryOne Group. The group asked him to contribute the English language vocals for a memorial video-poem written by a well known Italian writer, Robert Malini, "in remembrance of Makwan Moloudzadeh, 21 years old, executed in Kermanshah Central Prison, in Iran, on December 5, 2007, a victim of prejudice, and against the Death Penalty."

Makwan was executed simply because he was gay. The video-poem 'Makwan: A Letter from Paradise ,' was part of a presentation to the Human Rights Committee of the European Parliament in Brussels advocating the abolition of the Death Penalty.
