aHlan wa Sahlan
As-salaam alaykum! Happy October, Halloween, and Dia de los Muertos! This is a favorite month for us as two of our directors celebrate birthdays (Happy birthday Alia and Stefanie!!!) and we get to lean into the longer nights with even more dancing fun. We are deep in rehearsal for our first ever SWANA Dance Festival in Seattle. PLUS we are honored to welcome Brigitte as our newest member of the Qabila Seattle Chapter!
While we continue to nurture our joy on and offstage, we are committed to fighting for our collective liberation through advocacy, education, and coalition building. Dance4Palestine, a grassroots collective of artists including the Qabila Project, is looking for volunteers to join the admin team. As an organization we encourage people to participate, engage in conversations, and help connect resources for our collective liberation. We are assembling a new team to build broader networks and activate larger groups. If you are interested in joining, please email dance4palestine@pm.me.
Thank you for your advocacy, humanity, and brilliance in this life. Together we can do amazing things! Keep dancing friends! Free Falastin! Abolish ice!
