“Oppressors and occupiers are afraid of the people they’re oppressing, but they’re also afraid of our culture.”

Yasmeen, member of Al-Juthoor Dabke for 11 years, shares more about our upcoming show, “Take Me to Palestine.”

We hope that every Palestinian, Arab, and partner in struggle who joins us on April 26 will experience the roller coaster of emotions with us, the duality of joy and grief, the revolutionary optimism, the simultaneous release and cultural grounding. Be in community with us as we explore Palestinian resistance and the promise of a liberated homeland through dance and music.
