Hip
Hop is Bigger than the Occupation is a documentary about a ten day
journey of artists traveling through Palestine, teaching and performing
nonviolent resistance through the arts. The tour included M1 of Dead
Prez, Shadia Mansour, Marcel Cartier, Mazzi of Soul Purpose, DJ Vega
Benetton, Lowkey, Jody McIntyre and Trinidad, Brandon and Lavie from the South West Youth Collaborative/University of Hip Hop Chicago.
Staying in the heart of Balata
Refugee Camp at the Yafa Cultural Center in Nablus the group witnesses
night raids, toured places like Hebron where there are roads for the
Arabs and roads for the Jews, they meet families of shaheeds as well as
young Palestinians who have been jailed, shot and humiliated. The group
visits Bi’lin where they get shot at and tear gassed and experience
first hand what it felt like living under occupation.
