Keynote: Suheir Hammad
An evening with Suheir Hammad award-winning author, producer and poet discussing love, hip-hop and life as she reads from her new book “ZAATAR DIVA”
Produced by Kevin Price for Free Speech TV.
Suheir unpacks more road maps to freedom in this one-hour presentation than are navigated over the course of most lifetimes.
If you can only spare time for one of her brilliant poems on this so-called Independence Day, then I recommend Letter to Anthony/Critical Resistance.
Introduction and poem begin around 13:50. You didn’t know that Jesus was black and a Palestinian, did you?
