Free Palestine: born here, DAM (palestinian hip hop)

by

Palestinian rap group DAM, Da Arab MC's created this music video about the life of Palestinians in Israel. They're from Lod, a town between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, so they're Palestinians with Israeli citizenship (often called "Israeli Arabs"). They usually rap in Arabic, but they made a Hebrew version of this song with a music video to get their message out to the majority of Israelis who don't speak Arabic.

You find out more about them at http://www.dampalestine.com/main.html .

I've always wanted a subtitled version, so I broke down and adapted the lyrics from their website, to create this. I think this is one of the most powerful rap songs out there.

I've been in touch with the artists about this, and I'm working on getting better source video so I can fine-tune the subtitle timing in Final Cut. (more)

Sorry bro, can't be helped. Anyways, Hebrew is a Semitic language, half of modern hebrew comes from arabic anyway, and anti-occupation hip hop in Hebrew is a delight to hear.

embarassing them in their own language :)
