                                                     THE ONLINE HIT
                                                       Andrés Vargas


                               Nobody expected to be locked up at home for two

                               months, due to an unknown virus capable of killing a
                               thousand  people  by  just  sneezing  too  close  to
                               somebody.  The  coronavirus  does  not  distinguish

                               from skin color, social class, nationality, and job, for
                               it all of us are the same: a human being. That should

                               be the way we look at each other, but it is with an
                               arrogant and greedy attitude we look at, and that’s
                               the reason we beat, insult, and denigrate anybody

                               without  mercy.  The  justice  must  oversee  this
                               phenomenon, we can call it racism, but that is not
                               happening,  why  it  has  occurred  again  and

                               again. Therefore,  the  justice  system  must  resume
                               their  activities  as  soon  as  possible  to  end  this
                               violence period.

                               To  show  my  rejection  of  the  latest  violence  acts
                               committed  and  justice’s  negligence,  I  drew  a

                               caricature of a man sitting un an armchair saying to
                               the justice “How grueling is being online the whole
                               day”,  and  she  sitting  in  an  armchair,  too;  replies

                               “Tell  me  about  it”,  while  a  mugger  just  took  a
                               woman’s bag away. I chose this art because it gives
                               me the chance to criticize what I am against to in a

                               clear  way.  Many  people  also  use  it  for  the  same
                               purpose as me but transmitting a deeper message in
                               other topics. Maybe that inspired me to try it.

                               Perhaps the drawing has not too much connection
                               with  the  feelings  I  want  to  show,  but  what  I  am

                               pointing  at  is  that  the  judges,  lawyers,  attorneys,
                               and  the  others  justice  system  employees,  get
