“Hope grows everywhere” 🇵🇸🇿🇦
LINK IN BIO
I made this in May 2024 in the midst of the war in P.A.L.E.S.T.I.N.E. Seeing that much injustice, silence from the world, resilience of a people who have NOTHING… got to me in a way I never thought was possible.
I was angry, I was hopeful, I was a lot of things…
What frustrated me the most was the fact that there were still some people who were not understanding towards the situation of the p.a.l.e.s.t.i.n.i.a.n.s.
I channeled those emotions into this track (and another one that addresses a different part of the situation that I will share soon)
I wanted to speak on behalf of the p.a.l.e.s.t.i.n.i.a.n.s. to these people to explain this idea :
“do you see what we’ve been going through these past 75 years? How can you judge our reaction?”
And I wanted to talk directly to the p.a.l.e.s.t.i.n.i.a.n.s. to say “find a way to develop hope”
I chose to use a part of Denzel Washington’s speech in the movie “Cry freedom” , which talks about the apartheid era in south Africa :
“People must not just give in to the hardships of life. They must find a way, even in this environment, to develop hope”.
You can feel :
-The calmness and self explanation of Denzel’s speech (video 1)
-The sadness evolving into hope (video 2)
-Anger evolving into determination and then evolving into beast-like power (video 3)
-The confidence of “the liberation will happen sooner or later” (video 4)
We can’t go from 0 to a 100 in one second, many things have changed in the past 2 years.
And hope grows !
