Spoken Word - Rafeef Ziadah


April 02, 2010


With audience favourites like "Baghdad" and "Shades of Anger" and new pieces including "Trail of Tears". Come hear pieces from Hadeel performed live with music by the incredible "Lal".

Rafeef Ziadah is a Palestinian spoken-word artist and activist. Rafeef started performing poetry in Toronto in 2003 with the spoken word collective Pueblo Unido and is the winner of the 2007 Mayworks Festival Poetry Face-Off. Rafeef’s poetry speaks to the struggle of immigrants to “make it to/in Canada ” and the politics of exile. Being Palestinian she reflects, in the CD, on the realities of her homeland today, a homeland to which is not allowed to return.
