Homeland Hip Hop II
We're breaking down borders from Native California to Detroit,
from Iraq to Brooklyn... to Palestine.
from Iraq to Brooklyn... to Palestine.
If you are in or around NYC -or at least will be next week!- make sure to come out on Wednesday (October 21st) and Thursday (October 22nd) for two powerful events --> see full details below... but first, a Multiple Choice Question:
The first ever Indigenous Youth Delegation to Palestine is back and gearing up to:
a) produce a documentary about the delegation
b) release a hip hop track that was recorded during the music workshops in Palestine
c) publish the next issue of SNAG Magazine in Arabic, English, and Spanish... with the writing and photos from the indigenous and Palestinian youth this summer
d) create a section on thinkpalestineact.org focused completely on education and organizing tools for folks working on Boycott Divest Sanctions (BDS) campaigns within indigenous communities in North America.
e) develop and organize multimedia delegation reportbacks in the different communities, schools, and organizations that the delegates come from.
What's the answer? These kids are on the grind -> it's ALL OF THE ABOVE! Now here are those two events (in reverse chronological order):
#1) HOMELAND HIP HOP II
