Checkpoint Art

From my trip to Bethlehem in July, here are some pictures of the fantastic art on the east side of the Security Wall that divides the West Bank from Israel near Bethlehem.



I like this one: Ubuntu is a Bantu-Swahili word for humanness





Banksy


Funny



Mural of Jerusalem with dove and ladder
 



Commentary on American civil rights





Close to the checkpoint, a narrow road runs along the wall.


This part of the wall is  "museum" with various testimonies of Palestinians describing their experiences with the wall and Occupation.








 After the Wall Museum, there's a car park before the checkpoint, from here you can see how the wall divides the landscape.
