Rafeef Ziadah: Storming the culture borders

Rafeef Ziadah launched her album of collected spoken word poetry put to music at Toronto's Concord Cafe late last fall. She performed a few selected poems to an audience of friends, fans, musicians and of course Palestinian political activists. On Ziadah's anticipated debut album Hadeel, you'll find a selection of 10 poems that established this Palestinian spoken word artist's reputation as a political poet in Toronto over the past six years. Her work is accompanied by a diverse range of musicians, adding a new layer of depth to the work.
