Slingshot Hip Hop: Culture and Resistance from Brooklyn to Palestine

Presenters: Ora Wise, Angela Jones, Tehila Wise

Using a mixture of demonstration and discussion, this workshop will share the work of the Palestine/Israel Education Project. We will explore the use of media to raise awareness about the Palestinian struggle while developing with youth in the U.S. ways to articulate and address their own connections to the issues of colonialism, racism, and militarism. This workshop will feature Palestinian hip hop videos, short films, digital stories made by Palestinian youth in refugee camps, role play exercises, and other tools to jumpstart conversations around racism, occupation, and resistance.
