Pray for Paris

Almost three hundred years ago the French people helped define the relationship between the government and its people. They established the ideal of a people who were free and yet united in a common humanity. They argued that no ideology or religion should trump this basic ideal. The January attacks on Charlie Hebdo were an attack on this. And now again, on November 13, 2015, terrorists have taken on these ideals with their attacks on the people of France.

As we did with the Charlie Hebdo attacks, Redbubble will be standing with the people of France. As soon as we knew the scale of these evil attacks we advised that Redbubble will donate all profits from sales of works related to these events to the Red Cross.

Redbubble mourns for all the innocent civilians caught in the cycle of violence everywhere – in Beirut, Iraq, Syria, and beyond.

Pray for Paris.

For our French readers:

Par le Personnel et la Direction de Redbubble, 15 novembre 2015

Il y a près de trois cents ans, les Français ont aidé à définir la relation entre un gouvernement et son peuple, établissant l’idéal d’un peuple libre et uni dans une commune humanité, et soulignant qu’aucune idéologie ou religion ne devait l’emporter sur cet idéal de base. Le 13 novembre 2015, des terroristes s’en sont pris à cette vision en attaquant le peuple de France.

Comme lors de la tragédie de Charlie Hebdo, Redbubble soutient les Français, et reversera tous les bénéfices de la vente d’œuvres relatives à ces terribles événements à la Croix-Rouge.

Redbubble pleure tous les innocents civils pris dans le tourbillon de la violence, à Beyrouth, en Irak, en Syrie, et partout dans le monde.

Priez pour Paris.
