The role of music in the Palestinian resistance movement | The Stream

This episode explores how music is interwoven with liberation struggles, particularly in the current war on Gaza. Through a conversation with prominent artists such as rapper and activist Saul Williams, Arab-American singer Leila Hegazy, and Lebanese-Palestinian singer Anees – who have been raising their voices for Palestine – we look at why they think art has historically played an important role in shifting global consciousness. We also hear from Rahaf, a singer from Gaza, about her hopes and how vital music is in the midst of despair.
