And more . . .
Raza for Gaza, a two-evening cultural gathering in Oakland, is an invitation to practice inter-communal solidarity with the raza of Gaza. With the clamor of poets, the rattling of songs & music and the movement of bodies in dance, Raza for Gaza will join in the international, the inter-raza, movement for justice, peace & solidarity with Palestine. Our art will drown out – if only for a few hours– the Israeli explosions, denouncing the carnage of Palestine, to demand a permanent ceasefire and the dismantling of apartheid and the smashing of all fascist values and structures.
