Al Jazeera reports: From inside prison, Thiago dictated this letter to his lawyer:Dear Teresa,I’m sorry for not being home with you right now. I hope someday you understand that because I love you so much there was nothing more dangerous for you and for other children than living in a world that accepts genocide.Please, remember your father as the person that would sing to you and play the guitar for you to sleep. And when you grow up your mom will also tell you that your father was a revolutionary and that even when facing the most horrific people alive – Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Itamar Ben-Gvir – he stood firm to the belief of building a better world.Please do not forget Palestine!With all my love,Thiago ÁvilaThis letter first appeared on Thiago Ávila’s Facebook account.
