简介
The national catastrophe known as Nakba had a significant impact on the Palestinian cultural journey. A culture journey which was interrupted with the deportation of the educated class of Palestine in 1948, and followed by the isolation of those who remained on their land from fellow Palestinians in the areas occupied in 1967. This project comes 61 years after the disaster to defy attempts to obliterate the cultural identity of the Palestinians and challenge the Israeli policy of divide and rule practiced against Palestinians. Baladna – Association for Arab Youth presents this project: creating a music album which is the first of its kind, which brings together young Palestinian artists from all sectors in the name of Palestinian music, deliberately ignoring the historical and geographical division. This will be great chance to introduce modern artists to Palestinian youth who are desperate for fresh and young Palestinian culture. This project is a part of the association's new strategy of planning money generating projects able to fund other activities brought to the community by Baladna. All the benefits from selling the album will be used to cover the expenses of Baladna’s campaign against the Israeli civic service program that threatens the Palestinian identity and the national unity, and eventually can drag Palestinian youth into the Israeli army. Both the album content and the gigs carried out for promoting it will deliver a political messages aiming to raise awareness to the importance of preserving the Palestinian identity and rejecting the Israeli civic service among Palestinian youth. The content and the production of the album are made with a very young spirit that will suit the young Palestinian audience.
