Palestinian Hip Hop by DAM 4/21


from the olympia film society website:

Benefit for the Olympia-Rafah Mural Project Benefit
6:30pm doors/7:00pm show$10.00 advance/ $12.00 available at the box office night of show.

DAM is the first and leading Palestinian hip-hop group. Its three members were born and grew up in the slums of Lod, a mixed town of Arabs and Jews, 20 km from Jerusalem. DAM's music is a unique fusion of East and West, combining Arabic percussion rhythms, Middle Eastern melodies and urban Hip Hop. The lyrics of DAM are influenced by the continuing Israeli - Palestinian conflict as well as by the Palestinian struggle for freedom and equality. This show is a benefit for the Olympia-Rafah Solidarity Mural Project, a project of the Rachel Corrie Foundation for Peace and Justice.
