Be the first to see celebrated poet/activist Suheir Hammad’s new multimedia performance, based on her latest work, the breaking poems. Three distinctly powerful texts weave together to illuminate experiences of dislocation, from Palestine to Brooklyn, New Orleans to Iraq, and back again. Created in collaboration with media artist Waleed Zaiter, hip-hop aesthetics meet the politics of dispossession in this courageous and compassionate fresh look at being Palestinian.
