Existence is Resistance presents: “Gaza Strip to Detroit” Benefit Concert.

February 25, 2011 Hyatt Regency Dearborn Michigan

Artists include:
DJ Johnny Juice (Public Enemy)
G.O.D.
Khaled M.
Logic
Lowkey
M1 (Dead Prez)
Mazzi
Omar Offendum
Shadia Mansour
Sullee J
The Narcicyst

Breakdancers

This is the official concert for Gaza. We urge everyone in the country to join us in raising funds. The Hyatt is offering rooms for $89 a night to all those attending the concert.

There is no other place where you can see this large ensemble of the A list rappers of the Arab American community coming together in a concert. They are bringing Gaza's tough life to the attention of America's toughest city where rap is a right of passage for many.

Those rappers deserve a shout out for keeping Gaza on their mind as the attention goes some place else, Gaza suffers severely now and the siege is back in full swing.

U.S. Boat to Gaza

“We are planning to launch a U.S. boat to Gaza, joining a international effort to break and the seige of Gaza and end the occupation of Palestine. We are due to set sail in the spring of this year. In order to succeed in this essential but costly human rights project, we need significant financial support.”

Existence is Resistance

“Although the spirit and mission of EIR will always lead back to the anger and frustration evoked during the offensive on Gaza, a time of intense sorrow and human crisis, the broader mission is in finding commonality in the struggles of oppressed people everywhere.”
