As a classical musician involved in pro-Palestinian activism, I frequently encounter the assumption that I am an unconditional admirer of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra (WEDO). My reservations on this score tend to produce shocked disapproval: How could I not enthuse about such an idealistic project, particularly since it [...]
Many in Gaza are still coming to terms with the 22-day war waged by Israel earlier this year. But one group is trying to lift the blues – by setting up a breakdancing club. The style originates from New York in the 1970s – and now it's being exported all over Gaza. Al Jazeera's Ayman [...]
