And this episode is not only part of that approach, it might be the EPITOME of it. In a special two-part PODFAST, I’m profiling the music of both Israel AND Palestine. The more I listen to music from non-English countries, the more I hear how much all of it shares. Israel and Palestine are no exception, and we’d all be better served remembering that. In Part 2, I highlight some amazing contemporary Palestinian artists, cite some cross-border artists, and draw some surprising parallels between artists from both countries, and music from that region in general. Do you know anything about the music from either country? Have you heard of any of the artists I mentioned? Do you like anything you’ve heard? Does this change and/or enhance your perspective on the conflict?
